Hey everyone. I hope you enjoyed this... Please remember to check out the online store. It feeds my kitties when you buy from there :) www.consolefix.shop
I hope they clone you, I watched you for the first time and was touched how you know your trade, I wanted to ask you if you struggled in school and how you knew at what age that I.T was easy for you, did you learn that by yourself and are you born after 2000 - nice one for the upload and give me your dealers number

Would you possible be able to have a look at a projector hdmi board with a fan fault, projector shuts down after 10 mins of use with a fan fault yet all fans are working(projector works fine other than this shutdown issue)
Another good reason for trying to fix them is that it will give you peace of mind that all the components work, so good to be re-sold. Great work Phil, always good to watch these repairs.
Ebay seller: Its unfixable. The Cod3r: hold my beer...
True
Hold ma Flux
You ever tried writing your own original jokes?
If only that shop would’ve provided the disc drive daughterboards, assuming they even had them to hand. Since you’re close, I can’t wait to see you hit 100K subs!
When the jailbreak comes these non-updated boards gonna be 🔥🔥🔥
You never cease to amaze! Awesome job man. Can't wait to see the rest of these on the bench. 👍
That’s fantastic mate ! I’ve learned a lot from you guv thanks nice one from Brazil 🇧🇷 🏴
Great result on the first video Phil !! Cant wait for the rest of the series !
I've been watching loads of your vids after finding you a few months ago and I never thought I'd find someone fixing gaming tech so interesting. I was just thinking that I've learned more about the inside of my consoles from you in the last few weeks than I did from playing them for over 40years. How mad is that? Anyway good job on the fix and looking forward to the other 14. I'm predicting you get at least half of them working. Maybe a couple of early firmware jobbies. Fingers crossed lol.
Sitting here in awe at your re-balling skills. Truly exceptional.
I bought last year for the majestic price of £17 an early Switch, was told it was buggered and when it arrived I put a charge into it and it lit up, touchscreen fine, cheap joycons I bought for it working perfectly, one of the things stated was it didn't dock and it did for me but now it doesn't so that part came true... Put a new improved battery in it as the original one held less charge than a one legged man doing the hokey cokey. I also knackered the SD card reader, bought a cheap replacement but lack the courage to do any more as being much older than the usual lot me eyes are def a problem and now have three pairs of glasses, one for driving (perfect long vision), one for reading and video watching bumble about set and a set of milk bottle bottoms for my watchmaking and other squinty eyed messing about.
As an operations manager ( retired now), my one-liner the shift lad's hated was " flexible is the fourth dimension to better production" 😂
Learned about this channel thru Tronix. Really been enjoying these uploads. Great content.
Had me confused af when you said I know why it died. I’m like “wtf does he see” them you point at fifa 😆 you serious the man, bro! Great vid
Exquisite work philis🙌🙌
Nice work. You are a absolute legend.
Goooood ish buddy!!! great job!
Great video as always. What I can never understand is why people don't send them back to Sony for repair if they've had them for less than a year 🤔 their loss though, we get good content!
🍻to us who've came a long way with this channel😁😁the work shop looks awesome sir
I think how you are going about this is just great! Very wholesome and humble. I predict an explosion in popularity and opportunity! Keep up the great work, but don’t get burnt out!
Nice work Phil! Great fault tracing
This might be a novice question but how do you know it requires the daughter board and they haven't come from digital editions? Is there a particular connector for them or something? Or is there a number stamped to the board?
Yeah the digital boards are likely missing components and or the disc drive connectors. He could instantly tell if they was digital or not. Anyone selling these should include the bare disc drive board.
Learned: Properly verify the cause of a short before reballing a SB. Always mark faulty parts that you leave lying around. ;-) Cheers.
These might work when firmware is patched to skip disc checks , such bs by Sony to match keys but you never know when the hackers will win
why don't these "unfixable" boards come with the daughterboard? Just to prevent them to be resold?
and: with that mad skillz, is there no way to downgrade their firmware? like popping out the flash and putting a different image on them? does the APU have fuses that they blow to prevent downgrades?
Take your Doner board an put it on a plate you can remove an use an put on the wall as a testing board.. I had a few friends that did that with old systems, tho youll catch different boards, that youll come across also as you come across those you could do the same and youll see what got changed or engineered differenty, as boards do get changed or scrapped often and worse.. Lol "hope my suggestion helps" ? 😊👍
Wow amazing work bro 😮😮🎉👊🏾
nice one all parts check out and good to go for the shop
Another great video. Keep up the great work
might wanna re-try the old southbridge. looks like it might be salvagable after all
Said the same about fifa when repaired a ps5 disc drive, after repairing noticed fifa 18 was stuck 😂
I know exactly the shop, and yes, they are pretty much hdmi replacers
Fifteen PS5 motherboard WoW 😮 bro u is something else, nice 😁😁😁
It was amazing to watch
You are a Content machine mate. When i see a new video i am happy… so thanks mate 👌😊
Wim Win 🏆 Always Those cheap capacitors Will always surprise you
Nice job, man
hey random question but since the disc drives are missing couldnt you just sell them as "disk less" versions instead ?
Glad I didn't buy a ps5 to many issues with them. Thats great your putting parts out there will help alot of people fixing theres
Wonder why they don’t include the disk boards as surely they can’t use them without the mother board?
Maybe they didn't have them.
You're the man, next 👌
Great stuff mate. Well done on the fix. Does that mean the original southbridge could still be ok?
I have a question! what was that funky piece of music whilst you were re-balling?
good job boro....
Wow even though they are limited usefull still a very nice buy m8. These are going to make al lot of interesting and fun videos to learn from. 1-0 for you after this fix. Great content!!!
I have an expensive ASUS ROG STRIX Z690-F GAMING WIFI ATX Motherboard that was faulty out of the box with no display. There were no bent pins until I went to put the CPU cover on to protect the pins and ended up bending 2 pins. I'm wondering if this motherboard would be any good to you for channel for content. If your interested in discussing it?
Hi cod3r just wondering if you received my nintendo switch consoles yet I'm getting a little worried as I've not heard anything as I forgot to add the invoice to the package. Cheers and sorry for any inconvenience I've caused by not adding the paperwork 😊
MUCH LOVE BOR
Quite satisfying!
No wonder I NEVER find any faulty consoles on eBay hahaha
Piles are Never a good thing. Great as Usual Sir! 😀
Can you please tell me the make/model of the bench power supply. 😊
Nice one mate.
Good job 👏👏
I hope you read my comment but you CAN update and use that PS5 console without the original daughter board (with digital games of course), you just need another daughter board to be able to update the console.
a month ago i bought a Blu Ray edition PS5 for parts but it didn´t come with the disc drive. The problem was just a shorted cap and just like you i thought there´s was nothing else i could do to play games on it but i decided to give it a try at installing a disc drive i had laying around from a donor board i wasn´t able to fix and try to update the console and IT WORKED (i thought it was like the PS4 when no original daughter board meant game over but it´s not the case on PS5).
Of course you can´t play disc games because it´s not the original daughter board but it works just fine with digital games. I hope it helps.
What i want to try is swap the APU and other components married to the daughter board i used and install them on the PS5 i repaired hoping to have a fully working console but do you know wich components are married so i can swap them all?
Yeah I've been working on a couple of ways myself too bud. I'll give that a try but I've found a way to do it which I'll show in a video soon
I'll also be planning an APU swap too 😁 for the apu swap you only need the APU, matching daughter board and bios ic
@@TheCod3r I just swapped the APU and bios IC but now it just turns on a couple seconds and then off.
Hello brother can you recommend a soldering iron to do these repairs for ps5 please??❤
A few might be jailbreakable if on an older firmware probably no way to program a drive tho even if you could retrieve the drive key is what sucks.
I'm going for 12/15 fixed.
Do you have anymore projects planned with the guy from tronicsfix?
i wonder phil is it possible to add a external blu ray drive, to ps5 , see if that works,, give it a try.. never tried on ps5. is it possible to dump flash to see drive keys. at all . if u have working drive and working flash. u could dump both, and check for 16bit keys to see if anywhere there are 16bit data lines that match, these could be drive keys.
What if one of those boards belongs to an all digital PS5? Would that work, as it doesn't have a diskdrive.
Is there a part 4 to this series
Can you add link
Big question. Was the old Southbridge bad? Can u Contact seller and see if he has the rest of the parts.
Loved watching this mate. Well done, 1 down, 14 to go,
I am getting error code ce-108262-9 .any suggestions please 😢unable to use console crashing and getting system software error
nice fix
23:19 Funky man
What happened to the other space you were in for repairs?
Can these boards be used as a digital console only or is there restrictions due to the disk drive missing?
I think he said, You won't be able to do a firmware update without a disc drive, Bloody Sony gits !!
Essentially you can use these boards to transfer Apu, Syscon and nand over from a board that has a short inside the layers/physical damage … taking it as economical is another thing
He prob hits that Pipe Hard as fuck after a long hard accomplishment like that lol... He knows he's hitting the pipe hard
None of them are Digital Models? that sucks they didn't come with matching Blu-Ray Drive Motherboards :(
Nice one, Phil. So Digital Edition doesn't have a disk drive. I'm confused why these can't be used without a drive.
If it was originally a disc drive system, there is an additional circuit on the board for that. It is also paired to the APU, so when it's not there, the system knows. When updating, it does a check of all the components, including the disc drive, if paired. If something is missing or not working, the update fails. A digital edition is missing that extra circuit for the disc drive, and also has a very slightly different bios, so it doesn't check for the disc drive. A disc edition console can never work without that disc drive daughter board.
@@skolvuk it maybe able to if you can patch the firmware
@@RealDixonPeterdepends on how greedy Sony are
Out of curiosity what would you charge for a low firmware PS5?
well done
38:40 Agree 100%
Can you fix my ps5 the fan socket has came away from the mother board
I questioned 15? I press the video and you instantly reply. Yes 15😂 read my mind
Hahaha yep even I questioned it 😂
Nice video, Phil :)
But how do you test a southbridge or a wifi module before selling the chips/ modules?
Working test ps5
@@mecyanned but then you have to solder it onto the board, then remove it, and reball it to be able to sell it.
@@andrasszabo7386Do you want him to sell broken southbridge chips? If not then this is the only way
@@andrasszabo7386 do you not want a working one??
can it not be used as a digital version?
No, it wouldn't be able to update the system software. The disc edition console checks for that disc drive when applying updates, and if the disc drive is missing or not working, the update will fail. The digital editon has a slightly different bios that won't check for the disc drive when updating.
That's very e-waste-conscious of massive manufacturer Sony. Liquid metal issues killing fundamentally unrecoverable consoles.
you rock!!
Remember: never say never - it might happen one day that someone hacks the code for the daughter boards.
Any chance of getting the daughter boards? Seems such a waste.
Crazy 15 ps5s
Its weird that they'd sell em without the bluray daughter boards. They themselves are useless without the mainboard
They sell them as parts/donor boards. Not as a console.
that daughter board issue is messed up
so still no workaround? if even possible?!
Possibly patch the firmware to bypass the disk drive?
PS5 without the diskdrive edition? why wouldn’t it possible for that?
It wouldn't be able to update the system software. The disc edition console checks for that disc drive when applying updates, and if the disc drive is missing or not working, the update will fail. The digital editon has a slightly different bios that won't check for the disc drive when updating.
@@skolvuk Thanks for the explanation, I did not know that!
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 damn legend as always
Can i order parts from Holland to?
I havle ps5 not working can you repair it
Love the ad 😂😂😂
Why do people keep the daughterboard for the disc drive if it is useless without the motherboard? And why do people deem a motherboard unfixable just because they can't do all the things you do?? Go ask the seller to sell you the daughterboards, too.
What does the south bridge chip do?
Controlls things like storage, sound chips, ower speed lanes (not GPU, but network etc)
Why don't they give you dona boards. They would have had yo swap chips so surely they would bother if they couldn't fix that one
Gg, 1 fixed, 14 on the pile. 15 fixed ? 😁
You got from MMC?
Have you changed your life around from back in the day?
15? Must have cost a few Bob. Hope you can fix and sell em.
1500£
He said £900
It looks like it's time to change your nickname either to "TheR3surrector" or "TheNecromanc3r". 🤣😂
Said that, I would investigate the availability of sockets with pogo pins that close with a clasp, like the ones used for nand flash chips, so that you can modify a board to easily test components without the need to reball them.
