I bought a series x with no 4k tv. One reason was the disc drive, i have alot of physical games. Also even though i cant take advantage of the 4k, i think the games still run better and load faster.
The games will not run faster in your Xbox Series X just because your resolution is 1080p, the internal resolution from the game will be the same as if your console is set at 4K resolution. The resolution will be downscaled to 1080p that's it, but the performance will be the same. It's not like on PC where depend of your resolution "example 1080p" the game will be rendering at 1080p and gain more performance.
You can use the pxd chip from the one S instead of bypassing. Flip it upside down and solder all the pins to the right places. An interposer would be nice though.
I only have a 1080p TV with a series X . The series X downsamples from a 4k signal and gives a much sharper picture on a 1080p TV than an S on a 1080p TV . Framerates are significantly improved also
Codi, I've been subcribed to your channel for a couple of years now and I've always wanted to ask.. how did you become so efficient and good at what you do? did you do any electrical courses or is this all self taught?
12:35 This chip in particular was the source of the problem to no output 4k? At the end of the video you said its because of the retimer chip, so I am a bit confused. I have a customer that has this same problem. I would like to think an ESD bypass is not required and rather the retimer chip is faulty. If this can be clearly answered, I'd appreciate it.
I had to do the eds booster bypass on my series x and the only issue i have, is my TV input ALWAYS shows it's ON. and sometimes it starts up in low res mode... So i need to hard shut down and turn on again. But I'm getting 4k 120 and plays Call Of DUKIE just fine.
Serious question dude but ive heard you can swap the potentiometers in a dualsense with the old magnet style ones that never get stick drift? Just wondering if thats a job you can do and if so, can you do it for me? I need new liquid metal as well because its started ovearheating/powering off in horizontal now. Its a day one console though so guessing its oxidised due to age? But theres 2 jobs there for you mate 👍 🙏 (sorry this isnt xbox related haha)
Series X has the better hardware, runs games better in 1080p compared to lowered specced models. Also has 1TB storage. They only just recently released a 1TB S model. Also 1TB series X is $399 standard ($350 on sale). Series S has no disc drive. You can still get games for free to rent at local libraries as well. Can't do that for a digital only console.
Specifically regarding what's available in 4k TVs with gaming features it's actually pretty smart to wait, most are over-priced and janky, once the budget brands have solid 2.1 chips with gaming features you'll be able to buy a TV that's worthwhile. Even the smaller Sony sets are still cutting corners because the tech is too new.
I don't have a 4k tv or monitor and have a Series X. I own a bunch of 360 and Xbox One games on disc and the Series S has no disc drive. Honestly could care less about 1080 or 4k as long as I can see it and it looks clear.
Hey, someone on reddit recommended you for help, could you be able to fix my vita 1003, a broken wifi contact pad and a broken rear pad touchscreen. Cheers
Phil - what is going on with my repair - its been months and you only reply to one in 10 emails i send you saying you will check tomorrow and never get back to me. At this point im giving up and considering my daughters switch as stolen.
Hello, I have a question about Nintendo Switch. on The Nintendo log appears, and after a while, an orange screen appears. I have one more question. I know that if I remove the Wi-Fi IC, Nintendo runs normally. However, if I remove Wi-Fi and turn it on for the product, the Nintendo log appears and an orange screen appears.
sorry i totally understand the late nights, in hindsight you're pretty clued up so it makes sense it :) still good on you putting a correction on you video, most wouldn't bother, and i appreciate you messaging back @@TheCod3r
Hey. I need advice my ps5 when I turn it on shows the blue light but doesn’t show any white light anymore. Also when I leave the console unattended for a few hours switched on it looses video signal and becomes completely unresponsive. Any ideas?
Would a bad esd chip also cause a hdcp error when trying to watch dvds. My xbox was knocked over and I'm having same issues with no 4k. Why do people want to bypass the chip and how much would you charge to replace one. I took my xbox series x to have a gaming store fix the hdmi port which broke but even after repair on auto detect it's in low resolution and I have no sound. If I manually select it to hdmi I have sound and can change the resolution
It could be ESD related but it could also be the HDMI redriver too. Without fault finding it's hard to say to be honest. Personally for me it depends what is wrong. Normally around £80 though
I feel sorry for those people that are either left or right handed and are stuck with only using that hand. I am very grateful to be ambidextrous and can use both.
There is almost no games that runs 4K 120fps, the ones that runs at 120fps normally works at 1440p or lower. 4K 60fps is enough good for play, only if you are a competitive COD player and you want an extra response time and fluidity is worth it the 120fps with the corresponding sacrifice in resolution and graphics.
Real ones remember when the title said Xbox One instead of Xbox Series Also, I forgot about the TV, the last time I remembered you being mad was the idiot on eBay who, among other things, put thermal paste on top of the liquid metal.
I always do that lol. It's non conductive so it would never hurt electronics but it allows the IPA to push through the port to make sure it cleans inside the port too 😉
Congratulations, Phil, you've earned it! Best wishes to you and yours in the new year...
It doesn't work because it's ashamed by its cover!
Haha I would be too! 🤣
@@TheCod3rYou got mad on the prior repair tempt when the board.
Was almost all the way covered in Thermal paste ram chips and everything
@@nickboyer963I never put thermal compound on ram chips. I only put liquid metal 😅on ram chips
Offended by everything, ashamed of nothing
Never judge a box by it's cover
Road to 100k subs, i'm happy to be one those. Keep up phil!

Came back 24h later just to say congrats on 100k mate! My favourite money grabbing TH-camr!
Congrats on that 100k subs
Thanks so much buddy 😀

AWESOME JOB!! IM SENDING MY 2 XBOXS TO YOU FROM THE USA ONE XBOX ONE S AND ONE XBOX X MATE
I only have a 1080p TV with a series X . The series X downsamples from a 4k signal and gives a much sharper picture on a 1080p TV than an S on a 1080p TV . Framerates are significantly improved also
I saw solder between pins. Good thing changing port
Well done phill
Another one hit by the fifia virus 😂. Great video and fix
Haha this one takes the biscuit 🤣
where can I get one of those hdmi signal testers you have used in some of your videos? Like always great content and I always learn a lot from you!!!

Hi Phil are you OK not seen any videos from you for a while where are you lol
Let me think...when did I last see you get mad? When you punched the TV screen 🤣
That never happened. No proof 🤣
99.7 K nearly there Phil

This hasn't persuaded me or convinced me to purchase X or S 😂😂😂. I'll be sticking to PC
Series x is $499 and $399 on sale

what ? 4k new tech sure it is . I have 4k tvs going back to 2012 but you say new . just say you don't know . 4k cinema was a thing before the home TV

Hello mate how much would you charge to fix a charger port on a switch?
Dose it not cost more in labour to bypass then it dose to just replace with a doner
There were bubbles coming out the top of that port when you took it off 😅😂
Typical voltage drop from a standard Diode say a 1n914 etc is 0.637v not 1.6v…
Yeah I put the correction on the screen. I was very tired when I was live streaming this repair (it was past midnight) but that was my bad
sorry i totally understand the late nights, in hindsight you're pretty clued up so it makes sense it :)
still good on you putting a correction on you video, most wouldn't bother, and i appreciate you messaging back @@TheCod3r

What's the HDMI cam that you use for your scope?
Boxing Day video too 👍 🎉🎉🎉
Lol thanks Paul. I'm pushing hard atm lol
Hi ive got a xbox 1 s a repairer said it cannot be repaired are you interested im in the the midlands
No display
Saw you get mad when you dropped that screen after fixing backlight the other week :(
BTW whats the point of the bypass?

Yeah I'm sort of the same. I can do it with both hands but some tasks are easier than others

What was that skin on the Xbox series X with the phoenix and the initials L. F. C. ?
@@DracoMcGuyver That'll be Liverpool football club
Thank you. It is one of the better looking case skins that I have seen.
You are mixed handed then,I am also @@TheCod3r
Where is the xbox series x APU swap and ssd swap?
looks like a series x not one x phil u are good at fixing so fix the title haha
Haha oops didn't even realize 😅
I bought a series x myself. I have a 4k tv, but it can't take advantage of the 120fps. Only the 60fps unfortunately lol.
It's ok, there's hardly any games that put out 120. Most are still 30
There is almost no games that runs 4K 120fps, the ones that runs at 120fps normally works at 1440p or lower. 4K 60fps is enough good for play, only if you are a competitive COD player and you want an extra response time and fluidity is worth it the 120fps with the corresponding sacrifice in resolution and graphics.
Saw you get mad at a PS5 you bought on eBay that was filled with thermal paste.
you can tell whats wrong with it , just by looking at it, its gotta be them decal's🤣
Looks like a bin dipper owned it
Haha yup
I thought you could only get 1080p bypassing the esd 😕
It depends on the TV to be honest. Some will work and some won't. The better the TV, the better chance it has:)
@TheCod3r ahh okay. I watched this live on stream and was so confused lol.
series x has more storage then the old version series s and series x has a disc drive when series s dont
Real ones remember when the title said Xbox One instead of Xbox Series
Also, I forgot about the TV, the last time I remembered you being mad was the idiot on eBay who, among other things, put thermal paste on top of the liquid metal.
That’s the first pile of 💩💩💩 you’ve ever worked on there Phil.
Only get mad when braek a tv screen
series x
Yep Xbox Series X not Xbox One X
Haha yeah I'll fix that now 😅
Xbox one X ??? :)
Yeah my bad, fixing that in a sec once I finish reading comments lol
@@TheCod3r Happy Holidays fella :)
I like how he dunked the cable in the alcohol bottle and plugged it in 😂
I always do that lol. It's non conductive so it would never hurt electronics but it allows the IPA to push through the port to make sure it cleans inside the port too 😉
How would i be able to contect you @theCod3r regarding Ps5 UART
