After learning about hot glue from Sorin, I have been using it for the last 3 years and I haven't had any job return. Hot glue is just amazing. ✨

Sorin is king of dodgy repairs. I love it.

Sir your ideology was very good to understand the diagnosis concept the way you approach the methodology was really awesome A normal technician can't t do in such a way I'm very happy to follow you love to learn good knowledge from you sir thanku

you see how he did the hinge @ 24:00 mins, he put the glue on the holes, so the heads of the hinge would fit in the holes, then press down, let it bond, then heated up the metal again, then placed more glue on it. Better than factory.

Hot glue is incredibly durable and versatile and has insane hold strength. I even use hot glue with my woodturning lathe

Thank you very much Sorin and have a good weekend!

I have successfully done 100s of hinge jobs using hot glue. Sometimes I loosen the nut and lubricate the hinge and those kind of jobs rarely come back.

nice i learned from previous videos how to find 19v on screen connector

you are right.. i saw couple laptops mostly Dell with glued display frame and also damaged one while removing that frame.. so stupid.. for hinges repair I bought set of brass nuts what manufacturers mold to the plastic frame an I repair broken plastic using ABS fillament for 3D printers and melting it with soldering iron.. its strong as hell after that repair

Good job mate 👍

When applying hot glue to the hinge would it be worth putting some metal foil over the LCD to avoid damage from the heat gun?

Try to find the 3M yellow hot glue...its godly, 10 times stronger than the simple one

You're hot glue method is the best, use if a few yeas since saw it here its cheap and reliable. Thank you.

This is a great unit.

i love when sorin fix laptop and say "what do you think ah " xD

i never thought the hot glue was so strong like that

I use milliput epoxy putty for 3D prints and it sticks hard plastic like something to a blanket.

Hello🤝great work 👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👋👋👋👋👋👋

Love this repaires..... L'OL

23:22 yes it can be. For example when the water or alcohol gets around that hot glue for 30/60seconds it will rip that glue off. (most people remove hotglue by heat, but the better way is to remove it cold after apply alcohol there and wait 1minute) and also when your fixed hinge is close to heatsink/radiator it will break one day. Anyway hot glue is still the best for hinges.

Good tip for removing hor glue. I use hot glue for hinges since I've Dodgy Sorin using hot glue. I've tried other glues before too messy and weak bond.

Totally respect your decision not to clean the laptop. I like the hot glue hinge fix it makes sense, it's flexible glue and if you get a good bond it's better than any other option available. I have an old HP ProBook 6470b (which flies with Windows 10 as I fitted a decent SSD to it) with a broken hinge which I fixed with epoxy - but it's mine so I know to treat it gently, it's lasted two years so far. But I bet if I was to lend it to someone it would be broke again within a month.

I am talking to you from a country where the temperature reaches more than 50 degrees Celsius. Hot glue is effective and is the only solution for hinges. My question is, if hot glue melts in hot climates, why does it not dissolve before using it? I don't remember the day I bought a cylindrical piece of hot glue with half of it in the store

The doggy way of fixing the screen connector sometimes will not work. It happened to me after doing so the panel's internal fuse was broken. Maybe the screen was dead and the screen internal power mosfet was already dead. Also for the cleaning part. The costumer is not your friend or brother or whatever. If he brings a fault ypu just fix that one. I agree 100%. Because even if you do it for charity because you are nice to costumers. Sometime the costumer will tell ypu this dust is belong to my girlfriend's house before she past away and it was the only memory. Then he will sue you.

Were you using IPA Alcohol (or as it looked sticky) just water to clean it?

Si puedes. Solo recuerda comenzar con muy poco voltaje o amperaje, ya que como te comentaron ahí podrías freír otra cosa. Inyecta muy poco voltaje o amperaje, y fíjate con la cámara térmica. Y verás el componente en corto sin dañar algo más. Y por favor, no solamente quites el componente en corto, que de por sí quedará andando, por favor reemplazalo por otro, ya sea de una placa de descarte. En los esquemáticos podrás encontrar el mismo componente. Compara esquemáticos y de ahí obtendrás tu repuesto. Espero te sirve mi respuesta. Saludos desde Argentina

Mr. Sorin. Can the Ribbon Cable be replaced ?????????

Sorin, how's Diana? Will there be more educational vids?😶

Why can't the local repair shop fix this - that's why they're in business - but it gives you more work and money

Why dont you just replace or schort hte fuse instead of using a wire to feed the voltage to the backlight? it will be much quicker and neater + you are bypassing the fuse either way so no protection for the pch the next time the laptop gets water damaged

I would never release a repair like this, to my mind this is just a bandage. How much time would it take to find the reason for no power at the backlight circuit. The question really is do you inform your customers that the repair actually changed the layout of power distribution. and was not a one for one repair. In my opinion you do not tell your customers of the repair made. I think your a decent guy who got in the habit of down and dirty repairs. That might of been ok where your from but looked down at where you are.
