The component replaced is ESD 4 channel Diode array hence the D2 marking. Just wated to clear out any confusion. The Chip removed from the xbox serves the same purpose.
Hi and you could of left the old one in, cause the snatched side was not connected only the other side was for the 2 data lines of the usb. Would of worked either way.
really good job, you are 100% right this component is a ESD & surge protection component and they work all the same way the specs of them are all nearly equal so this component can be replaced with every other component of this type.
@@tunebg , and that's the difference between a good repair and a "would've worked repair". Alex likes everything to be perfect and up to his standards. ;)
The problem was VLC all along. OBS fixed the issue. There is something wrong with this video./ People are not able to comment and TH-cam shows 0 comments and audio out of sync. I'll post an updated video later today.
I went through the effort of making a rechargable LED from scrap parts and an existing pill battery powered decorative "lamp", attached it just fine but it ceased working, i thought it drained the battery, so i found an SMD resistor to dim the LED, yoinked it from a board with difficulty(471 i think) and soldered it to the switch, it was too dim, yoinked another one (200 something) and it was ok-ish. But then the lamp ceased woking again. Turns out LED's leg simply wasn't making good contact with the switch. All of that was inspired by your masterwork. xD
Hello Alex, I have been watching your videos for some time already, and have learned a lot from your skills. I am a newbie on fixing electronics and I hope I learn more from you. More watchings from the Philippines☺️
another great video. That connector was set for failure. I don't know why they wouldn't have the legs soldered. Do you have any good cleaning tips for your solder tips? They always seem perfect.
When you're under the microscope soldering in the video, do you use Fast Forward to increase video speed? Cause moving that fast would make you some kind of superhero
Hello i have been watching this channel for some good time now if i was interested in starting to learn this craft could you recommend a starter package for new beginners using products from your website or maybe offer a starter package on the website i think would be a great idea
NF Mini is a superb addition to my small shop. Thank you for providing the educational material here AND the reliable equipment on your site, Alex. Take care...
The scourge of Lead free solder. If it does not cause microscopic short circuits, it just lets go. (probably also contributing to the plague of failing capacitors due to the high solder temperature and not yielding a bit on cool down to get rid of stress ?) Another youtuber would call that component a "thingy" 🙂.
Could you please talk more about the components and mention some of thier purpose. Just few details here and there would make a good addition on your videos. Thanks and keep up the good work
It wasn't needed. The microusb 3.0 connector is a microusb 2.0 with an extension of additional pins. The broken filter was on the 2.0 side so there are only d+ and d- for the regular usb 2.0 part. The broken part was not connected.
Definitely better than factory! Looks like the metal frame was barely soldered to the board cause there was no solder at all on the back! Pins weren't much better. That may have prevented the pads from being ripped off. NF Mini Pen is awesome!
$20 capture cards use hardware compression, usually mjpeg. Proper capture cards return uncompressed video. Regardless this is still overpriced, similar products can be had for $100 or so

@@tunebg I believe NF has a standard, the repair is perfect always unless it's some sort of Hiroshima 😂

Guter Kunde, erzählt auch was er zerstört hat !
Und wieder einen tollen Job gemacht ! 🥰👍👍👍
I love that smile at the end when you have done the job, as usual Alex you worked wonders, top man.

The video has been fine the whole time on my end. Might be YT acting up.
Shaikh-al-Mashaikh You are a MAESTRO indeed!
Hi, the broken lines of the filter array seem to be NC. Could the filter array replacement be avoided? We will never know since it is fixed. Good job!
Love seeing your passion for your work! If you had a school I would definitely attend but your videos pretty much teach everything. Keep’em coming!
North ridge fix are the main supplier of amtec flux
Soon North Ridge Fix will own the formula and factory for the flux.

I've learned so much watching you're content rly appreciate the work you do sir
The Ghost was trying to bring the connector to the 9th Dimension 😂😂😂
had a great cuppa tea while watching this midday in uk,,,,, thanks for posting

Welcome Back Alex... Still missing your ending Music

Loved this video. Kinda got use to the ending music. Great work.
VLC Best Player , and Pot Player , amazing job and video
You have to keep those soldering tips clean with a copper mesh ball - I do that quite a bit - enjoy your video's
_Improvise, adapt, overcome._ Works for everything!
Hey Alex, great to see you again, nice work and tnx for new lesson 😊
Hi Alex great Job. I learned so much from your videos . Thank You.
Alex you rock. Good job man, big respect from hong kong
Perfect as always
I want to know if you ship orders from your website to Lebanon please let me know if you do
You're the Master !
fixing a different device like this.. would be awesome! 😌
Nice job as always!
Alex👉Nailed It❕❕
Thank you Alex
Love from India sir
Good job bro ! 🎓
finally a new vid! please post every day! hehehe
Its all about the tips!
What do you do for ESD?
Awesome fix

good video
nice to meet you Alex😬
Excellent like always sir alex!
Great work as always.
Good job mate 👍
Great work like always 😊
A good choice for the end of the day.

What is the brand and model of your hdmi switcher control box ?
Your ghost is very well behaved. What my ghost steals from me, it never gives back 😅
If only I knew somewhere I could buy Amtech Flux 🤣
Audio messed up halfway through video
Right there is my happy fix for the day. 😄
NF Mini is a superb addition to my small shop. Thank you for providing the educational material here AND the reliable equipment on your site, Alex. Take care...
Mailed over for repair.
Nice
Cool fix! What type of filter did you have to replace?
Image or noise filter i guess.
👍👍😘😘
Good job
its all about the tips
d2 damaged portion was unused that don't needed to replace.
Awesome work!
I prefer Media Player Classic from the K-Lite Mega Codec Package. Much more user intuitive in the player's menus.

11:45 - you sampled alot of what? 😂😂😂
Plea help me ! macbook infinite restart loop ?
👍🏻
Did you really needed to replace the filter? The 2 pins aren't connected to anything anyways.
It wasn't needed. The microusb 3.0 connector is a microusb 2.0 with an extension of additional pins. The broken filter was on the 2.0 side so there are only d+ and d- for the regular usb 2.0 part. The broken part was not connected.
It doesn't matter. We give it back to the customer better then it came to us. Only took a minute to replace.
He saved the world from complaints 😊
@@dkaytanthey still complain 😂
Super bro
For such fixes of connectors for normal use and not data recovery, would you use lead-free solder for the connector pins+back?
I don't think he uses unleaded solder at all
Apparantley the man is still standing at the front door.
Definitely better than factory! Looks like the metal frame was barely soldered to the board cause there was no solder at all on the back! Pins weren't much better. That may have prevented the pads from being ripped off. NF Mini Pen is awesome!
Alex wheres your Lamborghini? 😂
You soldered the connector upside down! Just joking. Nice job, just like new.
amazing as usual Alex , keep up the good work 👍🏻🙂
Genius!!!
wow….
Oooo shit the VLc is looking at you from inside out lol
a scammer dont send your device to him
"you do not have precision if the tip is too long"
Dude. U forgot to say. "better than factory". 😬

I'm surprised that Magewell cards are so expensive. I have plenty of sub $100 capture cards that work well.
This is exactly what I was thinking. There are $20 capture devices that work well and have similar specs.
especially since it only captures at 1080p
$20 capture cards use hardware compression, usually mjpeg. Proper capture cards return uncompressed video.
Regardless this is still overpriced, similar products can be had for $100 or so
