Miss your videos Sorin. I hope all is well with you.
Sorin , where are you man??? We already miss you so much.
Your vids are my daily portion of knowledge , happiness and love.
Hope you'll post soon , good luck
A great job I also repaired a couple laptop Hinges using what I learned from your videos. Thanks again for sharing your electronic knowledge with us.
You arre the Picasso of Hot Glue and the Michaelangelo of the Hinge! Job Well Done. I am Amazed!
My days are so boring without your videos. Hope you will be back soon.
I just wanna say thank you so much because I binged watched a bunch of your videos and today i got hired for a laptop technician because of all the information you teach. I also did some hands on at home to get ready. I am so happy.
I think this kind of jobs, for me are the most intresting ones, like the thing you do with de Wifi! special mention for that! And the fact that you love hot glue to fix everything and actually works better than any other solution that I used in those cases, is amazing (I follow your channel rigorously, im from Argentina. thanks for your videos!)
I just got my laptop back to working from a spare part. I wouldn't have thought of opening these things if it wasn't for your channel. You, sir, are a master repairman without schematics. That's skill.
Sorin the Craftman, multitasking, philanthropist, genius, philosopher, humble, generous, gentleman, saving the environment and the list goes on and on and on... You are correct not many shops would readily accept something like that and it seems you are further correct as you are the only one getting this kind of job LOL. By the way I forgot to mention you are a comedian too as you do make me laugh. "that's is sick". I just was waiting in anticipation for the word hot glue and the smile on your face brought the same reaction to me with contentment. Wow what can we say.
Hi Sorin 3 weeks and no video, hope your doing ok. I miss seeing new content from your channel.
masterful repair Sorin, enjoyed every minute Sir.
you are a great man Sorin, thanks for sharing all these valuable information, which not many people do it.
Plugs the screen without battery disconnect XD . Do as I say, not as I do. You are so great, Sorin. We learn so much from you. Thank you so much.
Sorin i want to thank you that until i have learnt everything from you i built my repair room in home. When they ask me that where did i learn all that things i tell that my master is Sorin. When they ask your place i reply that you are Romanian actually but living in England. You can proud of your results sir. Your knowledge which you transfer me is inspired me .. Thank you very much from Turkiye .
Not boring! Definitely worth the watch. Learned a little something about hot glue and internal antennas. Loved it! Keep it up!
Nice job really did it in best possible manner. Sir i am really learning hell of things from your videos and realized how easy fixes could be
Great job dear Sorin! Another customer made happy!😊
Not a boring video, I got this exact problem on dropped laptop, now I know how to fix it with plastic gluesticks - thanks !
Good job, Sorin ! If customer is satisfied, it's meaning you are good. Cu alte cuvinte : "Ia-le banii !" 😃
Is everything okay with Sorin? Its been one month without hearing from him. This is quite unusual. Please let us know if your're okay Sorin. Some of us are worried already.
Agreed.
Something is up.
@@ErikZarth Yep, I'm concerned too. Does anyone live near the shop to be able to ask about Sorin, or can one of his co-workers at the shop let us know what is going on?
@@terrygee210 Looks like he did a video on his other channel 2 weeks ago, but still odd that he hasn't been on for so long.
His other channel is CryptoMiningTrading
Many thanks for this video!
I have that same model of laptop and same issue with the hinges.
You helped me a lot!
You are the best on RUclips when it comes to repairs sir.
Solid job
Thank you for the update this was a bad one but still working fine 👍🏻
Amazing repair!! You are the man, Sorin!!!
Good for you Sorin, keeping this out of landfill/recycle for sometime longer and helping your customer not to have to fork out $$$'s also for a while longer.
Not borin, Sorin. I take these jobs now I see your confidence in the work.
Hi Sorin you are the best i see in electronics i learn alot from your videos from Trinidad
Thank you very much for the class, master Sorin!!!!!
Nice work Sorin i didn't think it will be so good.
Maestro Sorin, whats keeping you? Im waiting for your videos, please upload soon., we miss you idol Sorin 😃
Great fixing job! Nice way to fix radio antenna. Glue is sometimes nice way to fix broken PS2 controller.
I used your techniques to help a friend with his laptop. I told him to thank Sorin!
The owner could order an Asus X450S from ebay for $59.99 USD different color
You are a craftsman, it was a awful laptop, and you fixed, and make it look better. I enjoy this video, greetings sorin!!
Sorin you are the Man!!! Good Job well done!!
Have one of these in a much less colourful case - still running fine as a travel terminal after years of (ab)use.
The hinges are fine, although I have to admit, that I've never thrown mine out of a window to try to break it. 😇
Thanks for the constant knowledge passed by your videos!
One question? I have a motherboard that is shorted, powers up, no display, and power cycles on off .. one of the coils/power supplys only shows 8v, and gets ultra hot.. is it possible that is the shorted component?
Thank you
Hey Sorin, love how you take on any job and manage to fix it even though a large majority would probably say no! Here's possibly a better solution to fix broken plastics and hinges that I've been using for years. You can use superglue, once you place the super glue sprinkle a little bit of baking soda on it and it will make a super-strong bond. The baking soda acts as a catalyst/accelerant and makes the drying process almost instant, give it a try next time you're repairing a broken hinge laptop.
I find using epoxy resin to rebuild the mounts and clamping everything in place is a great way to do this.
@@nufcbob4115 I've tried epoxy, it's OK but curing time is too long. When you're on the clock you don't have time to mix the glue and then have to wait hours for it to cure. But when I'm working on my boat then epoxy is my go to!
Great video keep up the good work
You are an artist of hot glue :). Nice job!
Excellent job
An amazing video, not boring at all.
Brilliant thanks Sorin
Fixed in 30 min without any parts. good job.
great job,you are an craftsman
I use rivits to repair broken hinges, not the greatest look, but it works, and it lasts!!!
Tried epoxy, and it works ok if you lossen the hinge but evetually it fails too... Rivets last virtuall forever!!!
great job sorin glue art at its best
Well done sir
Hi, I like your videos, very instructive, I have a question, what kind of music do you listen to?
It is actually not boring :) Thanks for sharing.
Hot glue is crap for this and will only last a while. I have fixed worse than this using 2 part epoxy putty, works very well.
You dont know sorin skills 😉
Hot glue is not a proper way to fix hinge attachments in my opinion. You can use it to fix some minor cracks on the case (but not near any heat sources!) etc. but that will not hold the hinges for long. I've repaired these a lot and you have to take off the hinges, clean and sand the cover plastic and use for example some professional grade fiber reinforced 2 component adhesive to reimplant the screw anchors to the cover / frame. This way the display can also still be disassembled easily if necessary for panel replacement etc. If the cover or frame is that badly damaged we change those parts if available and reasonably priced (usually you can find almost any parts at least from used donor laptops). In this case I most certainly would have replaced the display cover parts. If the cover is severely damaged and not replaceable we use the adhesive to attach the sanded hinge to a larger area of sanded cover in addition to screwing the hinges to the reimplanted screw anchors. This way it will be stronger than new. We also reinforce the remaining sheaths around the other hinge screw anchors that are still on their places (on both sides) since they also have starting cracks on them almost always in practice. With a proper 2-component fiber filler we can even fix broken screw holes/tunnels. This method is more laboursome and preparations (cleaning and sanding of the surfaces) are vital but if properly learned is quite swift and easy task and the result will be better than new. The only real downside is that all the high quality 2-component adhesives require a 24 hour curing period. I would provide some pictures but YT does not support them in comments.
This hot glue method is something that does not meet our quality requirements on our repairs. I understand that this one was probably a very cheap repair and that is why the result is also not that polished or long term necessarily. Also this laptop was a very cheap model so a quick and cheap fix was probably the only reasonable possibility. We would not have done this repair this way, too uncertain. We give at least 6 months warranty for repairs like this.
And whine all you want Sorin fans (he is excellent with electronics!) but Sorin asked him self how would you fix this. This is how we do it and we have proved this to be the best method in practice with over 30 years career of fixing electronics, mobile devices etc.
One of my colleagues offers a cheap and bomb-proof, not that polished fix for these problems for his customers: He fixes the hinges by installing new screws all the way through the whole frame of the laptop / display casing. Not that sophisticated or stylish solution but very fast, easy and inexpensive but still very sound😁 He just needs a selection of suitable screws, nuts and washers and a mini drill. Thats all.
2-component fiber filler? u mean epoxy?
@@silverplays871 yes and no. Not regular epoxy, it does not hold, necessarily.
.
@Jarno Vilen any brand in mind?
@@silverplays871 I will not mention any commercial brands here. But you can search for something like chemical metal etc.
Greeting from greece, Nice job
Hey. Gonna share my trick. On mess like this i use super glue (not gel) and baking soda to fix brass in place. It gets harden in second and bond is so strong that's hard to cut with scalpel. Place brass in place, bit of baking soda around brass and drop few drops of glue on it. It will be stronger then original.
What's the purpose of baking soda? Thx
@@ricardoferreira2811it cures the glue instantly
Sorin, could you take some hot glue and fix this crazy world? 😊
Thank you :)
Interesting, nice work.
good job mate.
Hello sir,
You are full of knowledge and experience.
Please tell me that the hot glue you are using,is the normal glue stick (rubber type) or some hard one?
Regards,
Thank you
I am from India.
Thank you sir Sorin. Where did you go after doing this video?
great with that little in between repair 'emergency' :). and great show of skill again, I used it for my Dell Inspiron. hot glue rules
Hope you are well.
Those kind of jobs are everywhere, recently I did a laptop with what looked like car bolts and nuts on the hinges 😂😅🤣😆
I love your Channel, i have learned so much by watching you i wish we could do an online interactive class together to learn and just to chat, you are so intresting. Anyway Friend just wanted to tell you im a huge FAN
Is hotglue strong enough? I'd imagine the hinge coming loose within 50 times opening/closing the lid
The hot glue is not strong enough. I Recommended to use a dextone for the application It's like hard plastik when it's dry
Hi Sorin. Would you explain why you don't use hot glue gun instead of using hot air?
Offtopic: Sorin sounds like a Romanian name, or just a coincidence? Thank you man for your videos!
He is.
I was thinking some racing stripe duct tape or maybe some flames and then the master went to work 🤗
my laptop wasn’t starting finally did then i moved it and it shut off. the power light on my laptop turns on then off 4 seconds later. doesn’t power on with just the battery or power cable i tried all the easy solutions. any suggestions?
I actually burst out laughing at that linked DVD drive/HDD screw-mount. That's some next-level cost-cutting.
Good job :) This laptop can last for internet surving for long time,and work even better after changing the old dry paste on cpu and adding a cheap ssd+removing out the dvd drive,use instead a dvd drive adapter to hdd/ssd and put the main hdd drive as seceond one.What about dvd if you need? Just buy external usb dvd drive. What made me boiling is this nice cheap laptop have propably in bios legacy boot options,if you want you can run windows xp or 7. I paid 4600pl for Asus TUF FX505 DU-AL079T,its an expensive gaming laptop in my coutry,and it does not support legacy boot,i wanted have windows 7 as my second boot option,but i can totally forgeting about it.There are only 3 options from windows: 8.1 (not sure if can find all drivers), win 10 and this holly smoke what im looking at windows 11 :P This is like you paying a loot,have advertises in a paid os,pay for the device,and cant have full freedom on which windows os consumer will use.This terrible uefi should have all features,unlimited,csm,legacy,acpi compilations,all the things which should be for made work every os on expensive laptops,i dont eat that crap hearing they cant made something,they just cut the options out of the bios and made every new product way more terrible and terrible,like who in the hell world created a soldered memory :D Soldered hard drives :D Who in the hell ask for that? :D
Hi, this will not working very long time, I already make it done some time ago. The only one option is two-component resin, just try it.
How are you sorin we miss you 😩
This one does not need hot glue - it needs a magic wand!
Does anybody know where Sorin is? It's been 4 weeks since he has posted a video...?
Good day sir I need your help
When I was repairing my laptop hinge accidentally damaged EDP cable and smoke came out from the damaged area after that I couldn't turn on my laptop then I gave it to local service centre they checked and telling me that my processor got damaged and I have to replace entire motherboard (3v 19 v all voltage are ok in the board ) .is it any other way to find the pblm sir
Model (b5w11 la-e061p)
Accer laptop
QUESTION : i have an alienware laptop for repair, the sort circuit is like inside or between layer in motherboard, you have idea how can i work with kind of problem. thx teacher
Sir I am looking for a bios programmer which one do you recommend ?it should support maximum devices
I have an Asus E402S laptop, the problem is, when you press the power button, a white light flashes, but does not turn on, and the light goes off again after 5-7 seconds. The same problem with charging is the charging light flashes when the charge is plugged in, but it goes out again in 5-7 seconds. What would be the solution to this problem, if you could tell me would be very useful.
How are you Sorin? See if you can help me with a question. The original source of my notebook provides exact 19.50v. As this source is already old, I decided to buy another one exactly like mine for safety, but I noticed by the multimeter that it is supplying 18.90v, that is, it provides less voltage. So I ask you: can this voltage difference damage my notebook? Grateful for the attention.
I can feel the stickiness on my fingers from that old electric tape from here... Good job!
Same me :)
hi, what material did you use like glue? :) thx
Normal hotglue but heated with heatgun
Why did you use hot glue rather than epoxy? Isn't epoxy stronger?
I'm confused how did he fix the laptop main wireless wire ? You stripped it by cutting it and then that made it work?
That was not a result of a "bad hinge" that was abused, that had a heavy impact on a hard surface. But you are the king of hot glue hinge repair
there had to be a lot of duct on the fan's exhaust opening
im just at 3:35 and i keep repeat '5 min epoxy , 5min epoxy!'' but you not hear me lol , i go continue your video !
6:00 this fan is freaking full of barbra
Did anyone get the number/license plate of the other laptop or was it a" hit and run" ?☺️
Btw what was the thingy with the broken wire? Looked like a vibrating thing...
Please do another repair videos! Other crap videos are annoyingly getting into our nerves. Real stuff real life- real life repair shop- sorin style! ❤️
hot glue dont last. better to melt some same kind of plastic from a broken laptop.i had use both methods in same laptop, each for every hing. hot glue fail, plastic not. and then was hard to clean hot glue to rebuilt place with plastic
Is Sorin doing ok, do you guys know? Thanks alot, x
Nice work. You can also use black colour hot glue for a better conceal. Right?
Must mention how much you charged many thanks
Ants messed up my laptop, it doesn't power on, but after few tries if it does screen glitches and power off, and also few times it booted and stayed for few minutes then restarted then it worked perfectly fine. But again in the morning same thing repeats most of the time it doesn't power on , I mean the led gets turned on but after few seconds it turn off..... please anybody help.
Do you offer any one on one training or help for a fee?
Would it not be cheaper or the same money to buy a used one and take care of it? 65 bucks for a used one on epay.
Why not order a new LCD replacement top cover plastic unit?
The way I fix the hinges on laptops is with a 3d pen and crazy glue. Still not easy but best way
