This is just a thought, but would a heat gun, running back and over the board (not particularly high heat) would soften the plastic and let you pull up gently, or even shear off the tops?

yessssss I fixed it The problem I expected was from the laptop itself, the charger port had something stuck in it. After watching the video and the comments, I turned on the phone's flashlight to see the charger hole, And I found the part very tilted, even though it was charging, it didn't enter the laptop's port completely. I give it a try, because any movement of the laptop disconnects the charger, not stable. Now the port has been improved. you made my day. Thank you for the video and the explanation. I used a pin hair + a nail, was scared coz I wasn't so gentle. liked subs <3

I accidentally bent mine, so I took it to Best Buy squad. They said it was unfixable. Tried to get me to buy a new one. Even though I just bought the one and accidentally bent a couple pins right away. So then I tried to take it to a PC repair shop. The guy charged me $50 to tell me there’s nothing he could do. so then I took it back home and my 12 year-old son got a pair of tweezers and a magnifying glass and fixed it himself.

ive seen a couple people use dremels to remove the plastic stems, maybe try that next time? its definitely more messy but can be easily cleaned up with a mini vac and it reduces the risk of damage

I have a 2017 macbook air. Been using for years. 2 times it suddenly stopped taking a charge and wouldnt turn on. The first time i messed with it for 2 weeks and randomly it turned on. It was fine for an entire year till it did it again on me about 2 weeks ago. Again i kept messing with it, i thought the battery was toast. Found ur video while searching the internet on how to force a macbook to turn on without the battery plugged in(thank u very much for this usefull info) so i decided to stick the battery back in and use ur method again and boom damn thing works and is charging like nothing happened. Smh

Super helpful, Bob. My wife plugged her computer into a display splotter (for PCs) at a corporate office to charge, and after that, every startup hasbeen static on the screen, stuck at Apple logo, or black, always with the fan maxed out. I suspected battery, and will now give that a try. Thanks!

I have mid 2015 and they are really great, but the batteries keep expanding and I have had to replace it twice, and it needs to be replaced again. I wish there was a way to just get rid of the battery and just run it off the power supply all the time.

I had the exact same issues and replaced the battery but it still has all the same issues after replacing the battery. I even waited to login and activity monitor had the root doing 500% of the cpu. System taking 70% cpu at idle and I was 30% user always maxed so it was so so slow.

i think the new joint will get fatigue cracks and break much faster, because the solder is softer. it will probably break again.

Why would no ram in have to do with nothing on the screen? Never seen that as a problem. Also usually when the screen isn't working trying external image isn't usually a success since you often need to enable something in BIOS, at least in older laptops. I think it's easier on later laptops. Regarding old AMD, I actually don't have a lot of experience with older AMD but I somehow got the understanding it's not much of value. But the newer since Ryzen was released is in my opinion a lot better than Intel since Intel don't let you do as much with their CPUs. Just having them locked down unless you pay top dollar.
