- In this video i tried to explain the connection diagram of a micro usb connector. My soldering and drawing skills are not the very best but with the help of this video and some soldering skills you should be able to repair your micro usb cable by soldering a new connector.
finally Thank you for watching & if you liked this video then hit the like button and consider subscribing to my channel. Bye.
Thanks for the information--this was really helpful! I did a couple things differently that made it easier and more durable. Bend the solder tabs up slightly with a razor blade, tin both the wires and the solder tabs, touch the wires to the tabs, then heat the surfaces together with the iron--the solder flowed from one to the other and the contacts joined together much more cleanly. Another thing that worked well was pushing the wire underneath the bent up tab, then pushing down on the tab gently to hold the wire in place. Also, before snapping the connector together, fill it with epoxy (smear it all over the wires and contacts too)--when it dries it is virtually indestructible! I think this might be even more durable than a new cable--it seems that none of them last very long. Don't throw away your bag of connectors just yet!
Nice tip man. But i still don't like the fit of these connectors. I'm still using them but for cheap gadgets and small projects, not going to use them
with my phone and power banks.
I will have to try this... I will let you know the outcome in a bit.
Excellent diagram and explanation 👍
Legend...All i need was more information to wrap my head around it and done.
Thanks
Thanks for your help!, other diagrams I found online were not correct to my connector, I was getting crazy.
For those wondering, the diagram for the mini USB is at 7:25
This dude is still rocking an old CRT Monitor.
No money 🤷♂️
Bro... he still shits in a trench in his back yard... priorities my man.
Thanks for your input
Thanks
A way around Micro USB connectors that always eventually going bad it seems, is to go ahead and solder a regular USB connector by soldering its 4 wires to the Micro USB slot on the computer board. Yes that means taking apart the device, and You will need to drill a small hole on the cover of the device for the wires to go through. Then get another cable USB to Lightning or whatever for the final connection. Regular USB connectors are so much better than Micro USB. You can use some plumbers putty, or velcro to "hold" the USB wires and connectors to the unit you soldered and allow you to plug into. That way there is no chance of breaking your soldered connections. Is there a soldering pen small enough to properly solder a Micro USB cable? Crazy what the electronics industry offers the consumers.
Very nice and useful video 👍 super
Thanks! I'm planning on converting a few micro usb cables to mini and I'm assuming the connectors will match up.
*_carefully, he's a hero_*
how did it turn out?
@@AleXianFPV it worked well, though it was slighly annoying to work with because they're so small lol
Thank u 🌻
Thank you for posting this video
I think the melting of the plastic is to do with the over size soldering iron. You would do better with a pin point tip, 0.6mm solder and a temperature controlled soldering iron set to 280'c-310'c.
I found using the lowest temperature possible yields the best results.
Decent info TY for this👍👍
thanks! helped a lot
Thank you!
Thank You for sharing
Very nice!!! Thanks!!
i came for the actual soldering but he didnt show😂😂😂
Thank U my friend
Tank you, tank you, 1000000!
Very good instructions. I would like to know where I could get some replacement connectors? I have about 4 cables which have loose wires in them. Give me the address where I can get some replacements.
Ur video is quite interesting Where do I get all the stuff because am watching ur video from Nigeria west Africa
This is exactly what I need can I
Hi, I have just finished soldering a micro USB connector in an old cable, really the quality of the connector is very poor and it does not withstand the heat from the soldering iron but in Amazon where I buy everything I haven't found better ones.
Nice man
Thank you bhai.
Hai. Nice explanation and guide line to assemble these connectors to data cable. Today I tried and found working ok but fitting feeling into mobile port is not satisfying as you mentioned.
Are you able to get some good quality connectors ? If yes pls share link .
Thanks and regards
Ashraf
you're right. but i will not buy micro usb connectors any more because USB C is more in use now.Also, micro usb cable are really cheap so there is no point repairing micro usb cable.
Thats why the plastic melted , change the watts to 15 it might work
Do you know how to replace laptop battery without locking the battery management protection circuit?
Cool DIY solution. Is it possible to solder a thunderbolt 2 (male) end to a USBC (female) end? This would be a miracle as no cable or adapter like this seems to exist. The USBC (male) to Thunderbolt 2 (female) cord does exist.
USB C is very complicated, its not worth making or repairing you own usb C cable because the connectors are not easily available and they are very difficult to solder and still no guarantee that it will work as intended.
@@gurribuy Ok - thanks for the reply.
That cheap plastic got me, too!
If I just want to do a direct current, do I just use Black and red wire?
yes, just use the Black and the red wire but, without data pins the charger will not be able to talk to the device you want to charge and thus the charging will default to 500mA. So, you will only get half amp from your charger
I soldered 2 wire charger to the pin but when i connect it to my android it shows charging notification but it is not increasing charging level what is the fault here
My be the charger that your are using is faulty.
Or less than 5 volts.
Can't really tell without seeing in person
Try using a different charger or make another cable.
Where from u buy this micro usb jack
aliexpress. But, the quality of the connector was not that good.
Hi bro mini usb with mic and charger
Hey, what if i have a mikro usb with 4 solderpoints on the front side? On the backside no solder points, how do i have to solder then?
hold the connector in your hand so that you can see the solder points, Now, starting from the left
+5 then D- then D+ &4th pin is 5-(ground)
Gurribuy thank you so much, worked perfectly! Do you know how to holder a 4 pin 2.0 usb to a 5 pin mini usb? 3 pins on the ground and 2 pins above the 3 pins. I would really appreciate it!
You hot good points but why buy cheap ones for demo?
You should be using a 15w soldering iron so you wont burn it.
i was using a 25w soldering iron. I tried two different sellers just to make sure that one of them would be decent quality but both turned out to be bad. And now i kind of feel stupid as in 2020 micro usb is not much relevant at all.
can we use magnetic adapter and solder them in micro usb place?
Yes, you can.
Give a link of these product
don't buy. These are very cheap connectors, the plastic starts melting as you bring your soldering iron close to solder pads.
Gurribuy.....hmmm
Ok
amazon buy link pls
just search male micro usb connector and you will find some options. But, i would not recommend these as the quality is very bad the pin comes out easily.
How can you do this on the Male One?
you mean the female Micro USB?
Who is a good seller to purchase the micro USB connectors?
I am so tired of buying new cords!!! Even the OEM cords like to break.
When i bought these connectors, i bought from three different sellers and although the outer case was different but the main connectors were same from all the 3 sellers. So, i would not recommend to buy micro usb connectors anymore; USB C is the way to go now. But one thing i've yet to try that is the magnetic micro usb cable, maybe magnetic cables would not break easily.
Data transfer will workor not?
Data transfer will work.
Thanks for explanation, but painful video.. could have said everything in about 30seconds not 12 mins!
Thanks man. I'll keep things short next time.
this 12 minutes is very helpful because I know more about the quality of the connectors that I use. if it's not... black green red white and cop cop solder it then everything will melt
price
Its really cumbersome and not worth it.The connectors are made with zero thinking.Really difficult to keep the connector stable while soldering.Badly designed connectors.With the prices of new charging cables falling to Rs 10 and Rs 20, its not worth all this hassle.But its good to know in case of emergency.
That is definitely not the correct soldering iron or tip for a job like this that is why you are melting the plastic. You should use a conical soldering tip and thin .6mm solder.
you are correct. I have bought some .5mm solder.
micro bit iron. It works a little better but still the connector quality is very bad.
I can separate the metal part of connector from the plastic part without using much force.

You ever find any better micro connectors? lol
NO, doesn't matter now. Everything is USB-C these days.
hummm... where is the HOW TO SOLDER MALE MICRO USB CONNECTOR..? You went from bare melted wires to BOOM soldering done. 🤨
I know its bad.
Filming and soldering at he same time was not easy though.
I'll do better next time i'm soldering something.
@@gurribuy OK, 4giv'n. Now & then I'll watch video's of stuff I'm accomplished at, never know when, where or how new ways of doing 'X' will come out. Also I find 'X' entertaining watching others make BOO-BOOs.
Damndude, really 4eires (waist 90 seconds) really 3 connectors one side any2 on the other! (Again waisted my intellectual time repeating, repeating, did I say repeating?)
no good solding
