This wasn't a critical client job but it was still enough to make me get those uneasy cold panic feelings, especially with a couple of those Tristar pads were pulled away ( which were not NC :( ) I can't recommend any of the techniques I used in this job, was a genuine trainwreck. While the phone works in the end, it'll probably be out of a job, that's what happens when you take a 10MinTech arrow to the TristarKnee.
Thanks 👍 Appreciate the comment, though I should have had better skills to start with and not damage the PCB when trying to get the chip off --- more practice required and choose a better tool. Hardest thing with this tristar was the inability to get a good angle to try get the slider under the chip
I reluctantly agree that it's a bad job but you did make lemonade out of that lemon! And this is just a reality, sometimes **it happens! BTW is that soldering iron technique really effective for small BGA removal? I saw one suggestion if removing the iPhone 7 audio ic that way to avoid baseband issues.
I've used it successfully on Tristar removals for iP5 and iPSE machines but I just couldn't seem to get it to lift on this one. Most of the trouble here ended up coming from the modified lifter I was using, it's simply too thin and likely it bent down and dug in to the PCB cutting out those two pads while I was trying to get the lift. Should have stuck with the wider blade and used the hot-air.
what a nightmare.luckily the stuff I service weigh between a ton to 2 tons. and nothing like a bit of heat a bigger spanner a bigger hammer or some hydraulic power packs can't remove.
Paul Daniels Nah! Use a small screw. M36x3 mm pitch 180mm long should be about right. Have to use a fine thread so I can get my 750 nm torque. Man size equipment

Thank you Apple for making the world more "sustainable" and "caring about the environment"

Glad you liked it!
So bodgy, so brutal........ Welcome back home me lad :-D joke.
Like i've always said " It works and that's all that matters :-D ".
Dam that was a nightmare !!
Yes, I had a few sessions there of needing to calm myself.
NICE JOB THANK YOU
One of the joys of self-employment..
Yes, you reap the gains and you reap the mistakes :D

The executioner sharpens his axe.... This one should be X-rated!
Don't you mean axe-rated? 🤦♂️
Even at this speed, not fast enough for one of those 10 minute places! :P
I'll have to try harder next time to be worse.
Got a link to the template you used?
Are you meaning the stencil for the Tristar reballing? That's a Qulian 3D for iPhone 6 I believe
@@pldaniels yup. Thanks Paul!
