Dude thank you I was worried I wasn’t gonna find a good video for this but I have a question after you melted away the soldered metal what did you say to put on to clean it with?
I noticed mine last night but after watching this video this doesn’t look so easy to do i thought be quick I was wrong man swear if I hear another joke telling it hard for me because I’m a women I’ll probably tempted to punch 😂😂😂😂 😅😮😬😬
When I was trying to fix something and when I was gaming online and every time a guy said oh you need to find a guy to help you with it Because a woman just can’t do it and it pissed me off
What was the brass looking wire you were using to heat the old solder, I think it was the old anyways before you put the alcohol on? I’m trying to change my hdmi port on mine but my soldering gun didn’t come it all that. And it has some solder sucker with it too but I’m not sure how to use it yet. Lol 😅
Do you have a way i can purchase the gold tool? I have never been able to find such a precise tool to not damage the stickers. Amazing video. Thank you for your help.
Thanks and great question, but it all depends on the rework station you have as they aren’t all equal in what they can do but I use 450 with high airflow on my station.
What solution/equipment is needed to do this repair? I have a soldering iron but not the liquid or the solder he uses. I would really appreciate it if anyone can help!
Not completely. Try searching for a video showing how to fix pulled pads, running jumpers etc. it’s all fixable, it just depends on how much work will you want to do.
This is a really late comment but hopefully I get a response do y’all know if GameStop does this I can’t do it myself because I don’t have the tools necessary
Thanks for the video. My broke a week ago. Got the parts in and followed ever step till the install of the hdmi port. I’m using a cheap army bought sodder device.it won’t melt the sodder wire. So I just cut the 4 holding pins off with finger nail clippers and hot glue/ double bubble ( type of super glue but industrial grade) then followed the install. Thanks for the vid bro.
Dude you literally make zero sense I looked at what it's called and what you said is most definitely incorrect gotta be smart about what you saying lil dude
I just finished and it works but I have a question. If my soldering wasn’t perfect can that affect the tv quality? Because I can seem to get the quality of the Xbox how it should it’s showing 640x480 quality.
It will definitely have the same pins, but it might not work, for example the hdmi on one xbox won’t work on another even though from the outside they look like they should. The distance they protrude up and out might be very different.
If I had that tool to take out the hdmi port I’ll do it myself I already took my console apart at the part were he removes the hdmi how much is the thing to remove it
Damn i found a broken series s for 100, with an issue that seems to be from the hdmi port. Sadly i do not have any soldering materials to fix it, and I might bresk it even more XD
Yes, and they can’t touch the one next to them. Solder likes to bridge across the pins and if that happens it will need to be fixed as I demonstrate in the video.
the foam bumper is only there to provide support along the edge so you do not put too much pressure on that edge of the board and possibly crack the board. its not necessary for the console to function.
Anyone else pull up the wires when they pulled the port off??😭😭 should of paid the 90$ to get it fixed my advice is once you feel it loosen with the heat gun let it come off on its own 😢
what are the tiny black components behind the hdmi port going across the hdmi traces? i knocked 2 off and lost them trying to re-attach them... EG41, G688
Be very careful buying and read descriptions very well, I accidentally bought the wrong one twice. But ima tell ya this hdmi port replacement isn't an easy one it's a bit tricky and ya really should have some solid experience prior to attempting this replacement...and especially if you've got any broken pads...I've got about 3 years soldering experience and have done lots of hdmi port replacements and I've got a the tools but this particular repair is just very difficult..least from my personal experience and I guess mine is a bit more difficult cus I've got like 3 pads I'm trying to repair as well in order to place the new hdmi port on.
I know I was just looking up I was thinking yeah no that ridiculous and unfair and I’m stuck no Xbox right now because I can’t spend money fix it because I need save up because I just found new apartment Because moved to new state and temporary live my mom again but now there be apartment ready soon so need save up for deposit And also need all new furniture stuff TVs to and I only get paid once a month for my disability checks so I don’t get a lot So I may not have not have Xbox for while until move into my apartment 😢
I just found out yesterday that my hmdi port is broken because my Xbox was working just The other day before and for months before that I had the Xbox’s series s for year now I got for my 29th birthday in May but I just turn 30 this May But as of yesterday hmdi stop working it would say no signal me and my mom switched the cord and then tried it on different TV And nothing so then I took a flashlight hmdi port on the Xbox and looked at and also show my mom and said it looks like it’s bent inside and she told me go look at one at tv see looks same and sure enough it didn’t look the same
Think I may have burned the board tying to get the solder out. Any idea why the wick wouldnt pull it? I cut it and used plastic tweezers so it wouldnt heat the whole roll. Not coming out whatsoever. Got a super cheap soldering kit to the solder sucker is ass. Any tips would be appreciated I am 2/3rds of the way done.
The thermal mass of the logic board pulls heat away quickly. A decent soldering iron paired with good flux, wick and possibly some hot air from a rework station will be enough to keep that section of the board hot enough for long enough to remove all solder.(also adding some lower melting point solder and having it mix with the lead free factory solder will bring down the temperature the board needs to have the flux absorb all the solder)
A lot...and the cost will put ya pretty much at the same as sending it in to have a pro repair it. I advise only doing this repair if you already have the experience and the tools.. this is by far the hardest hdmi port repair I've ever done
no you still can use a higher melting solder, it just makes it easier as the thermal mass of the logic board sucks heat up really fast and makes it harder.
Do you guy do shipping? I have a Xbox series s that has the same problem and I want someone to fix but do a good job on it. And if you guys do how much would it be?
well. i fucked mine. managed to remove one of those copper looking flat wires off the circuit board and stuff the solder job. Looks like a new xbox is needed.
So I can either learn to solder, buy all the parts and tools and do it myself, or I can spend what I paid to buy the console, to fix one component. Great.
I just found this video after I took my xbox to best buy to get fixed. They have to send it to microsoft to get fixed. But i think i wish i would have given this a shot
I just did a video taking mine apart so makes it pretty easy to go back and watch and pause as I'm putting back together..it also becomes like ridding a bike after you've done so many.
This video allowed me to buy a broken Series S for £40, the part for £13, and have a working Xbox after one afternoon.
Great Job!!!
Where did you order the hdmi port?
Same reason I came here looking to buy one for like 50 bucks came to see if it's worth it to repair
So you had a extra hdmi port handy?

Anything around 450c to 500 is plenty it all depends on your station and what you find works for you.
How hot does it get at 5:20? How do you do it without hurting yourself
Great Job! It’s sad that they trashed the HDMI that bad.
i come home with my dogs or cat sitting next to a xbox laying on the ground… they can’t help but knock it down had to move it but the damage was done

@@giovanicastro3564 You make zero sense with that terrible grammar
Luke you arsehole , did it work?
I ended up with some bridged pins. Would it be best to remove it and start fresh clean and remove or could I fix it without starting over?
Use some flux and wick with your iron and it’ll suck right up into the wick then you can apply more if necessary.
@@FIXDPHONES I'll definitely try it. This is my first PCB soldering Job. Mostly I've solder guitar wiring but it's a lot simpler.
@@sleepwalking117 I bet you have already fixed it, but I had the same problem, cleaned up some solder and now it works like a wonder!
What happens if I don’t takeoff the black and green piece off?
I don’t have a soldering kit otherwise I’d be able to do this
It’s on Amazon tho
Is there a way I can get the link to the products you have
Would i need to do the same thing if my usb ports arent working on my series s?
Most likely yes, especially if you can see physical damage inside them.
what's the two parts you used to hold the board in place when desoldering?
I just finished and it works but I have a question.
If my soldering wasn’t perfect can that affect the tv quality?
Because I can seem to get the quality of the Xbox how it should it’s showing 640x480 quality.
What is the liquid he is using
I took a hdmi part out of DVD player can install that it’s looks to be the same pins and size
It will definitely have the same pins, but it might not work, for example the hdmi on one xbox won’t work on another even though from the outside they look like they should. The distance they protrude up and out might be very different.
Wjere can i get those tools ?
What is the copper wire brush looking thing?
Solder Wick.
How do I mail it because I do not have the materials
If I had that tool to take out the hdmi port I’ll do it myself I already took my console apart at the part were he removes the hdmi how much is the thing to remove it
I looked online and it seems to be like 12 bucks at walmart
Will a hair dryer work for heating up the solder to break the port loose?
A hair dryer wouldn’t get hot enough.
How hot does the solder kit have to get
What should I do if my soldering iron won’t melt solder and what temperature should both my heat gun and solder iron be?
Get a better soldering Iron and add Low temp solder to help bring the overall temperature you need to reach down.
@@FIXDPHONESwhat flux did you use?
Damn i found a broken series s for 100, with an issue that seems to be from the hdmi port. Sadly i do not have any soldering materials to fix it, and I might bresk it even more XD
Nice clean work
Thanks for the compliment
If you don’t have that thing you used with the sodering gun what els can you use I have the sodering gun and the liquid that for the sodering
I just repaired my xbox one x and omg that was so much easier..I didn't have to solder anything 💀
Lucky
Wdym? How come
thank you. how much for an hdmi replacement? on an xbox series s? with a white speaker. Is there a difference from white and black speakers?
The part is very cheap. $10-$20. There will be no difference with the different colors. Same ordeal
Does anyone know how much this exact repair would cost?
I saw one for 11.99 at Amazon
Who knows u May have fixed it by now tho ❤😊
Whats the music in the beginning?
How do you get the soldered to not cross all the pins
It’s ok if they cross all the pins. Flux a clean tip and the right temp will allow for this without bridging
Do you have to solder each individual connection point to the circuit board?
Yes, and they can’t touch the one next to them. Solder likes to bridge across the pins and if that happens it will need to be fixed as I demonstrate in the video.
@@FIXDPHONES thanks,
Amazing video thank you
Thanks for watching!
My question is how long did this take you in real time?
About an hour, the actual repair only takes about 5 minutes at most. The tear down and reassembly take the longest
@@FIXDPHONES cool but my question is how much do you usually charge to replace
What is the long copper thing you put on the pads (and put the soldering iron against) to clear the pad.
It’s Called Wick. It’s braided copper, kinda acts like a sponge as shown in the video.
@@FIXDPHONES thank you!
Links to tools and part?
I found one at Amazon
How much would it cost to fix it
Visit my website details fixdirepair.com
My dog hit the hdmi wire and the hdmi thing inside popped out i dk if it damaged the board or if i just need a new hdmi port how 2 tell ?
Any Damage done to the board should be fixable by someone who can replace the HDMI. I can if you'd like to send it in for repair. fixdirepair.com
So the foam that's removed does not need to be replaced?
the foam bumper is only there to provide support along the edge so you do not put too much pressure on that edge of the board and possibly crack the board. its not necessary for the console to function.
Anyone else pull up the wires when they pulled the port off??😭😭 should of paid the 90$ to get it fixed my advice is once you feel it loosen with the heat gun let it come off on its own 😢
What did you use for flux?
so it just magically sticks to the contacts and stays separated? man I've been sweating this repair
Not sure exactly what you mean, but no they don't stick unless heat is applied.
what are the tiny black components behind the hdmi port going across the hdmi traces?
i knocked 2 off and lost them trying to re-attach them...
EG41, G688
Oh you fix to ill might have go u get it fixed
What keeps the solder from sticking to all the tiny pins at once? It just stays right on each little individual pin
You apply a lot of special flux
Flux. Its magic
Any recommendations on kits for the sodder kit
What’s the copper bar he’s using?
To remove the solder, it’s just copper shield
Hey what can I use to clean or what type of alcohol can I use to clean?
91-99% isopropyl alcohol and a toothbrush will work just fine.
What g solder did u use
Anyone done a pad repair on one of these hdmi ports? It's what I'm stuck on right now and I have 2 torn off pads on the hdmi
So I replaced my broken HDMI port but game still not working...can anyone help or any suggestions?
New board
Can you do it without a microscope
I can, but it’s nice to be able to verify visually that things are properly soldered
@@FIXDPHONES also could you do it without a heat gun
Can I use an HDMI port from the original big black Xbox one for the series s??
