There's nothing like getting a 12 Pro Max for no service that works in the jig, but then gets No Service/Baseband issue after you reball it 😅
It also had a bunch of ripped pads but only a few were critical.
I also finally dremelled my Qianli Reballing Jig so it can fit the 5G antenna, which worked beautifully now. So this makes reballing so much easier.
I was hoping to post a success story with this one but was a fail.
Will give it another try tomorrow.
If you have a Seek Thermal Cam, you're missing out if you don't have a VCC Seek Stand: https://www.vccboardrepairs.com/buy-seek-stand
Injured Gadgets just got these back in stock, so get them while you can!
It can take us a while to build these out sometimes, so they're sometimes out of stock for a while, but we're working towards always having inventory ready to build more as they sell out.
This stand makes using a thermal cam so easy. So much better than any other thermal solution on the market.
It allows you to get real close up (using my Macro Lens), and easily find where the short is coming from.
Plus it's hard free, so you can have your hands free to try to boot the device from DCPS, while having an image that is in focus & not moving around.
You can even record a video through the app, while you inject voltage into the short, so you can go back & see exactly which component was it that was heating up.
Save yourself lots of time by getting a Seek Cam, Stand & Macro Lens! ...
Anyone who is doing game console repairs, knows how many screws you need to remove to access the motherboard.
Especially the PS5, with the 5,000 screws or so.
If you don't already have an electric screwdriver, GET ONE ASAP.

@VCCBoardRepairs please I have XS with 3 caps shot around nand, I tried clearing the 3 of them to see if the shot will go away but still. I need knowledge thank you 😊
If you’ve ever wondered what it looks like to grill a motherboard like a grilled cheese, this is the one to watch 😂
PRG reached out and asked me to tackle a pretty wild board that wouldn’t charge and kept bootlooping. So I did what I do best—threw it on the heat plate, did some micro soldering magic, and brought it back to life 🙌
