Which Thermal Cam Do You Have?

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! ...

If you do consoles, you need this.

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.

🌟 Cordless Screwdriver with T9 Bit: https://amzn.to/3E5duCj
🌟Extended T9 Bit: https://amzn.to/3c4YJac

It's rechargeable through micro USB and allows you to easily swap the tips out. You can also fold it to be straight or L shape.

Let me know below if you are already using an electric screwdriver 👇👇

iPhone 16 Pro Teardown & iCloud Lock Parts?

Today, I went live & swapped 2 iPhone 16 Pro motherboards to see if it's possible for a part to be locked.

Low and behold, they can be!

But, they will still work fine. Except they'll show up as "used"

Samsung S23 Ultra - CPU SWAP Tutorial!

I got a new video finally posted. I've been super busy trying to catch up with my queue, that I decided to take a break from making videos.

Now i'm back & published a new video, where I walk through the full CPU Swap process, including prepping a donor board and transplanting the CPU, RAM, UFS, EEPROM onto a working S23 Ultra demo phone board.

Watch it here & let me know what you learned from the video:

Crazy iPhone 14 Pro Max No Touch Repair - Long Screw Damage!

Check out all 10 pictures below.

This iPhone 14 Pro Max came in for No Touch. First thing I noticed Long Screw Damage.

Diode mode the display FPC and found a few OL

Checked ZXW and sure enough, those lines ran near the screw post

Removed the screw post & found the board was delaminating

scraped out the damage & exposed the traces.

Then ran the 3 jumpers to reconnect the circuit

And touch is fixed!
