Heeft geantwoord op: Is it possible to replace just the glass on the S6 Edge?Hi, incidentally the S6 screen is said to be identical to the Note 4 but it has an extra part on the back namely the S Pen. Maybe all those broken Note 4s with fail eMMC can be recycled? Bit of gentle hacking may work here, I separated the S Pen flex from mine without too much hassle. Not sure if anyone else has tried this, the problem is finding a good reliable source of old Note 4 phones. The bare displays are a pain to separate but if you do a lot of them there are safe methods.

Heeft geantwoord op: Will it work without a blu-ray drive?Hi I too have this problem. In my case wanted to make a small cluster and shockingly this one is linux capable. Fortunately the original owner broke it just before the new fw came out so may try it with just pcb connected to see what it does.

Heeft geantwoord op: Samsung N130 does not boot up, 3 short bleeps then inactive screen.Same problem here. Maybe worth mentioning but the CMOS battery on these is a small disk with wires attached. I have replaced it (2.6V) but alas no change. It might be worth replacing the 25L16 BIOS IC if all else fails as this has unbricked a few netbooks here. Also check core voltage as if this is too low then it won’t work. Hint: these chips are often used on older netbooks and have a scrapper (Toshiba 630996-001) that has already donated its power switch to the cause. The fiddly part would be flashing this and recommend the chip be wiped twice with zeros to make sure before flashing it with a known good image. You can just buy a chip as well from ze biosman.

Heeft geantwoord op: Component missing from logic boardHi, have the same problem (maybe) here. It looks like even using a plastic spudger is enough to do this if you are really unlucky. Incidentally some ideas I had: use “laser soldering” to heat just the prepared solder microcolloid consisting of screened soot/PG dust and solder paste on each end rather than using conventional reflow because this may be far superior. I am looking into writing some papers on this :-) Minimum power may be less than 150mW so a modified BR writer diode could be fine if the board is preheated to 75 Celsius first (still within tolerance) also have some old dead boards with various problems to practise on. Also possible: use IR 250mW diode with coaxial blue beam from weaker laser eg an Osram PL450 as this may be somewhat safer: use indirect viewing via a safe box and other measures to prevent eye exposure to reflected beam(s). Ideally I want to fix the one with long screw damage (found this one in a bin!) Incidentally dried up solder paste is still somewhat useful if chemically separat...

Heeft geantwoord op: PS4 Blue light of death fix?Can this be why some units don't recover after HDMI *AND* IC replacement? I heard that maybe 40% of chips online are fake, some work in 720p only but most do not even run. Fortunately unless you are a complete klutz or used plumbing solder this is repairable, I personally remove chips with Chipquik and extra Fluxite, though pricey it is very efficient. (if you want to make your own the formula is available though not as good) I did find that weighing fake versus genuine is an effective method for these and fake memory cards, the fake will be substantially lighter on a microscale from Ze Finest Greedbay but the cheap ones can be h@x0r3d with some effort. Repeatable measurements to 0.01g and you can see airflow movements! Will share my modification as soon as its complete, had it all apart again to add temperature feedback. Even broken scales are repairable with the right parts from CPC, Farnell, RS, Micro, etc.

Heeft geantwoord op: How do I change charging port?Same issue here. A handy tip though is to use DVM on 10A range and undo negative terminal. Meter goes between spade and now exposed negative screw bushing. Monitor current and if charging starts it should draw around 5.1v 1.6A at start dropping down fairly rapidly as voltage builds. Use at own risk, I found that heatshrink around meter probe helps reduce the chance of a short. Pretty sure in my case adaptor went bad as it won't even run my pi!

Heeft geantwoord op: Can I replace the “irreplaceable” LEDs on this Philips lamp?Hi, I've just taken apart two different failed LED lamps. The typical failure mode on these as the array is normally a 3*8 or similar array and one or more diodes goes high resistance due to overheating or just plain bad design. The series drive chip detects this and shuts down, however sometimes the capacitor goes bad as well. Depending how vigilant your lamp manufacturer was this should just shut down or blow a fuse, but sometimes the circuit goes into runaway and blows all the diodes. I have also seen a similar failure in LED TVs, if you have a dim third of the picture then this is quite likely. Often changing the bad diode (darker than the rest) then testing will bring it back to life. With S**s**g LED TVs the board housing the bad LED can be replaced individually if you can find a scrap panel with good backlight unit(s). LEDs can vary between 3 and 9V Vf which can be determined by voltage testing with a 9V battery and 330 ohm resistor in series, and a voltmeter across diode under test, also handy for col...

Heeft geantwoord op: Cracked touch screen GlassHI, have a pair of S3 with broken glass. I did manage to get the glass off a water damaged s4 mini and in the process found that the oled is somewhat transparent once you take the heat spreader off! It's worth noting that if glass ok but display borked then ribbon transplant is possibly feasible. It's very hard but if you have the right tools and nerves of steel...

Heeft geantwoord op: Can I use LOCA glue on all Samsung Galaxy S-Models?Yup, had this too. A handy tip is to work under a red safe light or you may have issues with glue prematurely setting. I also found that if you have damaged ribbon cable, once display is off the front glass it can be swapped with a ribbon from a broken led but the alignment is very critical as is placement of z axis tape. The value of the glass especially oled can be substantial even with bad cable! !! There are even sites you can send dead screens and they will recycle the good parts.

Heeft geantwoord op: Replace Broken HDMI PortSome folks recommend using chipquik (tm) , this does work. Its actually possible to make an equivalent that works slightly better for lead free solder (as used in PS4) and I've done this recently. http://sci-toys.com/scitoys/scitoys/thermo/thermo4.... has one possible formula but the trick is to get the right flux as well.

Note: a good test for broken OLED is to shine a UV light at it.
Broken units typically do not fluoresce corectly and show red “patches” where water has got in.
If you compare with a known good unit the difference is very obvious.
Note: if someone has changed the glass and used third party LOCA it will light up blue not white!
If anyone has a fix for the brickbug please let me know. I did get most of the data off just before it carked it but alas
looks like the most recent pictures are toast.
Trying to fix my “brickbug” one now. Yes the screen is a complete PITA.
Maybe a hint though, pushing on the battery compartment can break the screen and this is a known issue with the S6 and its
puffy battery of doom (tm) TWO bad units here.
Incidentally it does appear that the thermal compound does not work as well over time so worth doing a repaste at least
in principle: ripping it out and replacing with nice fresh pad may be viable.
Obviously do not use 3mm thick stuff as this will damage it, those clearances are very small.
I did this fix on an S3 once and it did run better afterwards though eventually died due to a battery issue.
Cough I *HATE* PMICs /Cough.
Anyone know where to get the long ribbon cable from? have one where the HDD light blinks when you lightly touch the middle of cable so possibly corroded or otherwise failed. HDD does not boot either, tried trimming 1mm from each end but no effect.
If all else fails I may try metering it and bridge just the single damaged (SATA data?) wire with some modwire.
Hi, yes if the display flashes it might be a loose connection. I’ve also seen similar issues with the foil mentioned, Z axis tape works for reattaching it. The foil used for getting rid of slugs will work as used it before for making patches on antennas etc, but nice Z axis and copper tape is sold with the chibitronics circuit stickers kit.
Note, for folks with damaged foil(s) a suitable replacement is that copper tape sold for deterring slugs.
If you’re careful its possible to overlap it and reattach with 3M Z axis tape.
I did this on an old Huawei with similar problem and it worked fine, also handy for reattaching broken screen flex but its a *lot* harder.
If you have a good glass with bad flex (how?) then this sometimes does work.
Re. dodgy touch screen it can’t be replaced as part of the assembly but can sometimes be worth checking that the secondary flex hasn’t come unplugged from the board: its a PITA to check but if you get it out try cleaning with IPA in case of fingerprints.
If its black, chances are the screen is kaput. About the only way to check is to disconnect the flex for screen, if this is the problem phone should then boot up fine. I saw this on some S6’s once so its quite a common problem.

Hi, is it likely that the touch screen problem can be rectified by replacing the screen?
This one has pretty severe screen burn already but they aren’t cheap.
Yes its repairable as I believe Z- axis tape and a foil patch may work. I have done this on two phones so far and they both worked as it was just a ground in these cases.
Does anyone have the pinout for the front camera please? I want to use the colour sensor (the R/B thing where the IR face sensor transmitter goes) but can't seem to locate these anywhere. I believe this is basically the same as the Sparkfun chip ISL29125 but a different variant.
On mine the camera does not work but before replacing the module ribbon it did still detect proximity so that works fine.
Also found that the S4 mini front camera is very similar alas not identical.
