You need to be much more careful next time take it slow. Just some constructive criticism for you none of us got it right the first time. The electronics are just so fragile these days it dosn't take much.

Knowing the story of the device did always help to figure out the problem

Your workload looks overwhelming. I don”t know how you keep all that stuff straight. Obviously you have a good crew that you can count on . I always learn something from your videos.

It's great to take part in your thinking process as you go along. Your assumptions usually take to the right conclusion. A testament to your expertise and experience that we see everyday. I love your repair videos, but I love your talks on business even more. Thank you for the effort! I might be late to watch your videos but I make sure that I never miss any.

Big thank you, I had a Xbox one s I bought to repair a HDMI port... Fix it and did a total cleaning... After the cleaning the console, it stopped working... After running across this video I thought "Hmmm, this sound interesting and a lot like my problem." Yep, after tearing it back down , I found the broken traces... This unit sat for over two years, in a storage box... Thanks to you, I was able to fix it and am now enjoying this unit... Thanks....

I work at a chain repair shop and we don't offer microsoldering in house but I wish we did. I love your videos!

@@randomkitty2555 no the problem is the expectation that a perfect candidate exists in the wild and will work for less money then they’re worth. Relatively few are doing what used to be common practice; training their own employees. Start looking for someone who knows the basics and will come in everyday and grow instead of looking for an expert who will work for less than they could earn independently. There are millions of ppl capable of learning this work who will never be given the opportunity bc of this one illogical concept that’s permitted business.

Your repair shop is a Big Power House for electronics patients. Very nice. 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

I love watching this video definitely at night it's almost like AMSR it's just smoothing to hear you talk while you fix that

Really enjoying your videos. Learning a lot about circuit repair.

It is not about the particular device. Your method is genius! You are GOLD!

Nice video, thanks! Its always good to know the story behind a problem. This will let you get an idea or a solution immediately and helps most of the time. 👍 good job

Awesome work! I really hope I never have to use your service, but if I do, I know I'm in good hands!

It looks like business is good for you guys. Also looks like you might need a bigger shop soon. Love your videos.

Hi Alex, you've done awesome work and I've learnt so many things from you. for learning purpose; could you please upload videos of unfixable circuits as well?

You are one man with very stead hands Alex. When I take chances with bigger components than the ones you deal with it's a nightmare

amazing job...can't wait to start fixing things with comfort and knowledge. :).

Love your channel... Very well explained as you investigate the damage and how you are going to repair it ... Just an idea for you... I play musical keyboards... Repairing them might be another service you could easily do .... Anyway keep sharing your work here on KZread .big thumbs flying high 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻☘️🇮🇪☘️🇮🇪☘️🇮🇪☘️

Solder mask/UV light I learned something new ! Very nice.

more videos.. more more more.. Love your work from India.

Damn - jealous that yours was a simple fix. My on/off xbox one s has been one hell of a hole to dive down. It's now mine (customer doesn't want to pay for repairs) so I am just going to tinker when time is free. Three phase power rail is good. No short to gnd. All I can think of is Southbridge at this point. Trying to avoid a reball.

Good job as always🔥

Quick Fix !! Happy Customer :)

Great, nice repair!!

You guys ROCK !

This saves time and money over years

Big boss previously worsened it and you fixed it

Nice job and video like always

The X clamps are easy to remove if you don't try to do it like most of the videos I've seen online. The screwdriver should be twisted to between the upper and lower parts of the fork, not by levering against the board. :-)

I like watching the repairs and was not aware of the 'track pads' which, come to think of it are a great way to repair broken tracks. Some years ago I used conductive liquid silver which was brushed on to maybe join two tracks. I've only recently been made aware of the masking and using UV light to set it, so thanks for that. 👍

Big boss is very calm nature 😁

I wish that I will work here one day😁

Hopefully the thermal paste will stop it from shutting down while gaming if that was indeed caused by overheating. Good quick job though and good video.

What video editor are you using to make your videos? Have you already sold something to Brazil? I am interested to buy a microscope ring Light like yours?...... tks for your videos thats helps me a lot.

Hope to see you repair the original issue of startup and shutdown in a future video.

He fixed the startup issue by repairing the pcb trace, and probably fixed the shutdown issue by replacing the thermal paste / pad. What more were you expecting?

great job

Did you test playing a game to see if the original fault (shutting down mid-game) is still present? I can't imagine something that new has failed heat paste already...

other than youtube videos, where can i learn to do repairs like you? Where did you start alex?

God bless you brother, Just a remark, i think it would better if you stress test it before sending it back to the customer, peace be upon you.

I always put some tape in the motherboard near the X clamp holes on the xbox to avoid cutting traces, is very easy to happen, once had a 360 the screw driver just jumped to whenever it wanted, luckily it scratched one part the of pcb which had to traces, and no components, was very lucky, is very dangerous to remove x clamps

Alex time for another site / size upgrade my man 🙏🏻🙂

Nice video. Brother where are u from ?just curious 🙂

uve heard of mask mandate but have you heard of solder mask mandate??great work.a small needle nose plyers is good for un doing them x clamps

Omg how many devices do you repair in a day and how much do you charge on average. I suppose your passion to see things working again helps you stay curious all the time about the repairs, otherwise for somebody who doesn't like this kind of thing this would be a nightmare.

How come you don't use conductivity ink pens to replace a broken circuit - instead of wires - just curious

Have you considered taking a break from KZread? Man if I was this backed up, I would put KZread on hold for like 2 weeks and just bust out most of these. I mean it's all up to you, but I don't want to be selfish waiting for you to make a video when you have this much work to get done.

How much do repairs usually cost and how can I go about moving forward ?

that 1080ti is the same one you worked in video 2 days ago?

I'm a welder now I would just got by another one but this one sentimental to me

People need to purchase extended hardware warranties on their game consoles. Y’all are tiring this man out !

Why the heck do they have to make the traces so narrow. I never understood that. Maybe it saves on copper usage?

also pretty common repair for og xbox where capacitor has leaked and traces have rotten away 😅

what about shutting off after it heats up? does it still do that?

I had the same issue where is would instantly shut of, when I sent it to get fixed, it came back with a shorter power cable and it was formatted, not sure why.

Sometimes when xboxes shut off immediately or after about 30 seconds it's due to a failing hard drive.

That's why I'm always using a plastic card , even few plastic cards if needed to not damage any components or traces 😁

I also put flat head in between to loosen, then I just pinch with fingers and pull up. Never get any scratches
