I'm at a point now where I just watch to support the channel but there are some great tips here, we all need to learn together and share our tips and best practices to make for a better repair industry. Well done 👏
I can Feel the Happiness in your face after a Device is fixed. It's not an easy thing to identify the correct part and fix it with such tiny parts even under the Microscope. It takes years of experience to achieve such a Skill!
Amazing! I am a doctor, but not a surgeon. During residency I had the opportunity to assist in brain surgery. What you do is no different than neurosurgery! Besides opening the scalp, burning small bleeding vessels with an equivalent of the hot tweezers (uses RF instead of heat). Opening the skull with burr holes in a triangle form that don’t touch the brain, then, a diamond thread is carefully run from one hole to another hole under the skull without touching the brain, and by running back and forth the bone is cut. Do that 3 x and a triangular piece of bone is removed and put in a metal container with saline solution. Then it is all under the microscope. Surgeon and assistant, each with their microscope locate the target, be it a bleed around the brain (easy to remove clot & then clamp the broken vessel) For superficial tumors tumors they need to be carefully dissected & removed without damaging any of the surrounding area. The only instrument that you don’t use is an ultrasonic liquifier probe that turns tissue into a paste that can be “sucked out”. The operating macro-scope similar to the one you use has 2 heads so the 2 surgeons see the same thing or they can use 2 separate scopes. The surgery is done by knowing the anatomy. They cannot see the neurons, or axons, since these are microscopic structures. There are microscopic structures that work like “chips”: Unfortunately we can’t replace parts ☹️! The neurosurgeon has to know from studying, what “chip” “wires” are where and what they do. Of course there are very detailed “wiring drawings” of the microscopic structures and where they are generally located. A “general schematic diagram”. Anatomical variations are frequent! Meaning there is a “standard schematic of the brain” but it’s not always the same in everyone! So the surgeon needs to try to figure out if it follows the “general schematic” or not without being able to see “ the wires” or “chips” 😳🤔🙄. No using RF tweezers on the brain itself, this would cause a seizure. I encourage you to watch a neurosurgery for tumor removal . Several are available on TH-cam. Your skills are identical to those of a seasoned neurosurgeon! I really admire your talent! Congratulations Dr. T
Hi, I have watched some other person videos who repairs MacBooks " hope you gets his name" but when I watched your video...I was not able to grab you accent but now I gets it....the reason I watch your video more is that you stick to the repairing and not with other subject and you directly talks to the point...you video are perfectly in duration...take care all the best
Although this is an old video, it never gets old seing the happy smile of successful fix! Thank you Alex for sharing your knowledge and passion with us and the scientists...
I'm still training my hand, apart from the theoretical knowledge that you get in school you really need a good hand for this. The techniques learned on this channel help a lot! I believe I speak for all subscribers here when I say Thank you!
TH-cam recommended this to me, never have i been interested in this kind of work, now i cant stop watching this. You make this look easy, makes me want to go get broken devices to see if i can fix them, thank-you for sharing.
As these little devices are starting to show in guitar amplifiers....I guess I'm gonna gave to learn to deal with them. I've been watching you for a month or so... really learning a lot. Bought some new soldering equipment and moving forward. Thanks.
I enjoy watching content like this when people show you their skills instead of telling you how great they are. Also cool to see that their is pride in their work.
I see that every time he fixes something and it comes out perfect, we hear him say, Problem is solved", then you see a shit eating grin,....Boss level CORRECT!! and what satisfaction it must be to have fixed something that so few can. He is actually a very generous person and that's another reason I love this channel. Learn so much about repair and life lessons to boot. Thanks for that.
Great video as always, a small pair of tin snips would make your life a lot easier doing this and give you a nice clean cut. They used to sell them as Jewellers snips over here in the UK.
Fantastic Smile. After every problem solution Techie will have this heart felt smile on the face. Keep going Bro. I keep watching your repairing tips. Very good information. 😊👍
I was recording a video today and I was sitting there like.. how does Northridgefix fit repairs + film and editing in a single day?! Great job boss, would love to work for your shop, unfortunately nowhere near cali! I'm in north east Ohio! Hopefully I can fly out there for a visit one day!
Very inspiring! I do have older tech products wanted them fixed and pass to generations. I had same wifi bluetooth problem from sitting long tablet and thought it was buggy Sam* product. Wish it could be fixed long ago.
Fantastic. I’m a newer subscriber. Have you ever talked about your years of experience since your college years? If so, what video would that be? If not, would you be willing to make a video talking about it as I’m sure there are a ton of us curious and interested in hearing how you accumulated your knowledge and experience, during and post-college. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and techniques meanwhile being extremely entertaining!
When our work succes can see a confident smile on our face ... Great 👌 job man , congrats... I have some questions to you ,if spare sometimes to me. Thanks
Very nice sir, i am a huge electronics fan and your videos give lots of inspiration and shows loyalty towards work. Thanks for a lot for all the tricks i learned from your videos, hope to learn and impliment in my projects. All the best.
I didn't have iron tweezers, so I made an loop with the soldering wick and wrapped it around my finger and looped the end through the top and tightened it around the tip of the solder iron where it rest on top of the wick and it worked fairly well.
Wow! Great video. Love the extra tips. So weirded out to see people touching the BGA chip while it is being reflowed onto the board, seems like that could mis-align it.
Tapping the chip off axis and allowing the surface tension of the liquid solder balls to return the chip to correct alignment ensures all the solder balls are liquid and so all the pads will have the correct connections.
I'm impressed with the reflow method with the amount of flux used. I was always taught that a thin layer for the reflow. Buying myself some tweezers now, love that method.
You are great man n I love the way you put your informations down n it clearly shows you learned them through your experience. Thx a lot mate you are helping us a lot n I am your new fan from this video
For months (almost 6) I had the wrong number of chip to replace in 1 of my Tower PCs so I thought it was just a pin CPU to replace with no fan attached... nope I looked up the right number & it's actually a BGA CPU chip. No way I can practice & get the equipment to apply it (at least I can easily buy 1+). Now I have to sent it somebody that still knows how to remove & apply them properly like you. Hopefully my other PC (also from the 2000s) isn't also a BGA (but likely is).
I've been writing software for 20 years, I've got three separate honours degrees, and this guy just blew my f****** mind! I bow down to your kung-fu master.
Salam, the moment u mix the leaded with unleaded after applying flux u used the cotton bud.....may I know what was on the bud u applied...please guide me.
😄🤣😂 I started laughing when you tested the piece of hot desoldering braid with smoke rising from your fingers. I am thinking to myself, oh no another convert to the ElectroBOOM school of electronics. 😁. By the way, excellent tips 👍
Extremely well done Sir, was the IC pre-reballed? Why didn't you use a bottom heater, whenever I tried to use the hot-air the nearby components vanish off? What's the temperature setting of the hot-air? Regards

that smile after every fix..too inspirational bro🤞
You truly see how haapy he is for his customer. Thats the spirit ...
I was thinking the samething.
"Right there!" Very satisfying repair videos.
I can Feel the Happiness in your face after a Device is fixed. It's not an easy thing to identify the correct part and fix it with such tiny parts even under the Microscope. It takes years of experience to achieve such a Skill!
I have absolutely no business with soldering / desoldering BGAs, but I found this fascinating. Thank you Sir!
The feeling at the end: "Am I good or am I good!". Nice job.

Bro you’re a Pro and make it easy. I can’t wait for the training school to start
This is excellent. Some great tips in here for removing solder. Thank you!
You made that BGA solder job look easy. I know it's not, though. Nice.
TH-cam recommended this to me, never have i been interested in this kind of work, now i cant stop watching this. You make this look easy, makes me want to go get broken devices to see if i can fix them, thank-you for sharing.
Replacing BGA IS REALLY RISK, but Alex u r smart and expert, using all repairing tools and your brain.
As these little devices are starting to show in guitar amplifiers....I guess I'm gonna gave to learn to deal with them. I've been watching you for a month or so... really learning a lot. Bought some new soldering equipment and moving forward. Thanks.
I enjoy watching content like this when people show you their skills instead of telling you how great they are. Also cool to see that their is pride in their work.
Its amazing that you found the chip at fault with no obvious shorts or anything near by.....just a software issue. You are truly a expert.
You can see the satisfaction on your face when it worked. I also had a smile when the wifi kicked on. Awesome to watch. 🤙🏻
2:15 "Won't even cut water" I've got to remember to use that phrase!
Me too ahahahah 😂😂😂
The feels when it's fixed. Priceless!
i think your skill level is morethan 100 you are G.O.A.T!!
Love that Smile at the end when the Problem was fixed Love it
The smile on your face! Fantastic!!
i just saw today and became a big fan of him .Look at him how easily job done just amazing.
You are becoming legend.... Learned new super technique of soldering and......... A very big thumb....👍👍👍👍👍
2:13 this cutter does not even cut water - you just have to love this guy.
This guy is indeed Boss level!
Yes.... But LG phone is not seen now a days
@@Sekhar_Home what are you babbling about??
Why does it feel good to get likes on my comment?
his boss is the BIG boss.
Defenately!
Thanks so much dear for favorite online classes 😘💖. We really love science and technology raw materials. 🏭
I like watching these videos so much that I feel an urge to break a component to watch you fix it.
I see that every time he fixes something and it comes out perfect, we hear him say, Problem is solved", then you see a shit eating grin,....Boss level CORRECT!! and what satisfaction it must be to have fixed something that so few can. He is actually a very generous person and that's another reason I love this channel. Learn so much about repair and life lessons to boot. Thanks for that.
Thanks for sharing your method of cleaning the solder balls from the board. Excellent work and great repair job.
Great job. Youve been working a bench for a while and it shows.
Great video as always, a small pair of tin snips would make your life a lot easier doing this and give you a nice clean cut. They used to sell them as Jewellers snips over here in the UK.
He said he had a pair he used for that, but he couldn't locate them, right then. 👍
I have been watching lots of you videos for a few days and I enjoy watching your highly skilled work.
Fantastic Smile. After every problem solution Techie will have this heart felt smile on the face. Keep going Bro. I keep watching your repairing tips. Very good information. 😊👍
Your smile after each successful video, that's what we're all going for!
Excellent BGA chip replacement tips & tricks tutorial. Thanks NF!
It's beautiful to see your smile when the problems are solved. 👍😉

Broadcom is usually a pretty good hint as to the identity of the wifi/bluetooth IC.
yes, they had ethernet, card reader, wifi, bluetooth and some other too
Man you are so good! I just got into this stuff and I'm seriously no good, I do EXACTLY what I see you guys do and I get VERY different results :-/
Very nice sir, i am a huge electronics fan and your videos give lots of inspiration and shows loyalty towards work.
Thanks for a lot for all the tricks i learned from your videos, hope to learn and impliment in my projects.
All the best.
This is what hard work and dedication is🤖
I'm so glad you made this channel and I stumbled apon it some really awesome content and tips
Amaizing method! Work is better :) Today i got broken gopro hero+ for repair :) regards from poland.
I didn't have iron tweezers, so I made an loop with the soldering wick and wrapped it around my finger and looped the end through the top and tightened it around the tip of the solder iron where it rest on top of the wick and it worked fairly well.
Thanks for the video. I got some really good pointers there! Can't wait until something breaks lol
Dude is for real a beast. no joke. but hes got all the tools, that hot air gun is temp controlled.
The method he used with the hit tweezers and wick was next level genius 🤯
Wow! Great video. Love the extra tips. So weirded out to see people touching the BGA chip while it is being reflowed onto the board, seems like that could mis-align it.

America's next top Talent 👍👍
i love how you fix things my man.. from philippines..
Watching your video was useful for me. Thank you.
Keep up the good work idol always watching your video from old and from the present 👌
You are great man n I love the way you put your informations down n it clearly shows you learned them through your experience. Thx a lot mate you are helping us a lot n I am your new fan from this video
I`m sure i ask you a question that for sure is repeating but what temperature are you set for disoldering the chip?Thanks a lot!Love your videos!
This guy makes Jerryrigeverything and every other phone repair experts look like childs play.
I learned alot of you bro you are very correct master and tells all what you work greatings from Kosovo respect.👊👍

What advice would you give to someone who wants to start writing software for test benches? Thank you in advance
Thank you for your presentations,and what type of Hot tweezers you use and where to find them?
Wow. Thanks for sharing your re-work technique. Should be good for other SMD parts, too.
This guy is a genius
Nice fix, I could learn off this channel.
Those tricks are superb. Thanks for sharing.
Holy shit, that wick+tweezer tip is excellent!
this is most important lesson thank you very much sir 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Thanks for your sharing work your video helpful my technical life love ❤from 🇮🇳
You would make a great storyteller!
Bu mükemmel. Lehimi çıkarmak için burada bazı harika ipuçları. Teşekkürler!
Big hand to Ismail 👏👏👏
I learned alot from you and from Tronicsfix. Greetings from Germany
Inspirational! How about those 60 thumbs down tho, what nonsense was going through their heads?! 🧐
Great video and amazing tips once again. Thanks for sharing
Superb.. The master!👏👏👏👏👏

ElectroBOOM is on whole other level of self destroying man 😂😂 ,yet he makes us laugh with those silly mistakes
Extremely well done Sir, was the IC pre-reballed? Why didn't you use a bottom heater, whenever I tried to use the hot-air the nearby components vanish off? What's the temperature setting of the hot-air? Regards
He says 470C starting at airspeed "80"
I wish I had the skill and tools to do this, but I don't - on to the next video!
