Huawei D15 laptop. dead - Buying faulty motherboard from Ebay and fix it? Can we? Worth it? 

Another great video!! I started watching you because you were one of a few that didn’t edit your videos. I always enjoyed your hour long videos. Plus, it seems like I’m getting more usb-c charging ports than ever before. I actually have your videos playing in my shop all day. Keep up the dodginess. You’ve taught me to think outside of the box

i would always buy a motherboard from you coz you are genuine and honest person sorin everytime .....if i had your experience and knowledge i would be buying motherboards from ebay repaired ...

Thank you Mr sorin I learnt laptop repair from zero to hero because of your channel.im truly grateful #Zambia

6 months ago I lost my wife, my bride left us. I'm in big depression and your channel help me means a lot to me. I'm a programmer and it tech, but now I've learned a lot from you like never before. And I want to do this job and earn for life. Thank you

3 "technicians" already have checked the board.. Hah. Anyways, I suggested on the previous video to buy the board, it is worth the value, in the worst case scenario for spare parts... But it comes up that is functional. Good call Sorin ! Keep up the excellent work !

Sei sempre il migliore ,non essendo un riparatore ma un autogas converter ,ma ho sempre amato l'elettronica, e qualche volta anche seguendo i tuoi video ho riparato con molta soddisfazione qualcosa , grazie Sorin

Please no edit. I personally learn lots of things, laugh, and entertainmend from all your videos. Lots of thanks

Happy with you sorin! ☺Great job, especially the surgically accurate USB port repair!! Great!👍

Good Work Sorin!

Brilliant fix Sorin good choice on the mainboard 😊

Thanks again. Your a professional.

Great channel you have here. We really learn how to repair electronics here. Keep it up!!

Great video keep em coming 👍👍👍👍

Congratulations 🎉

That's a great result. Sorin you are the best

Great job, as usual ! 👍

Thanks to sharing this repair !!!!!!!!

Great work , happy it works !! I think that the Huawei D14 and D15 have the same motherboards

Customer got lucky and Sorin and we are happy ✌️ I was negative about the motherboard beging faulty with the same issue, but sometimes you get lucky

Good job mate 👍

You a good Gambler 😀 Love your work

OMG🤯 This is only possible in England👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍👍

lol when i see your video ! you are amazing!great Sorin!

Hi Sorin, i told you not to give so much credit for their technicians, i work in the same field and i can tell you, you have no ideea what kind of technicians are getting hired. Glad the board is working! 3 Technicians can't change a charging port, nice one!

Fortune favors the bold :) I am really glad it went Ok and it is a fix.

I am really liking your videos. It's like a good detective story, and good learning tool. But you are way too honest, I'd have put the old board back and explain to the customer the real problem, and then you would tell them you have to source for a new or used CPU for the board... Then you should charge for market value of a comparable desktop CPU at least. You deserve it. Wish I could come to your store, too far from Toronto CA, and have my ASUS laptop fix. Cheers, on to your next video.

i get these a lot, you make sure you jumper 6th and 7th pin (charger detection pins) which is most important after 2 ground and 2 plus.

Lucky , Sorin,!

Honestly it must be common as I bought 2 MB's from this seller one was only USB C port and 2nd one was working without problems . I got convinced by your video and bingo twice !!!

can you do a video on the resistance measurements and voltage measurements on the coil inductors

Previous video some of the comments mentioned this seller is associated with insurance devices. Others said bought from the same seller generally board works.

bine Sorine 👍

Sorine, ma omori cu zile! Vreau si eu stricaciuni d'astea de pe ebay!!! It's not fair!

Result 👍

much better than coffee!

Never better said: "I CAN'T BELIEVE!!"

the seller has so many motherboard, and too few time or people to check every single recovered part is working (or not). so is a game of speed, to list enough boards per day. it not worth the time, for them to get bogged down. so instead with ebay condition category sell a parts / not working... this is not unheard of. and if the board costs them $0 originally as an e-waste... then thy made a sure fire 30 bucks. for the work to make the listing in terms of broken charging port / broken tracks then yes, it does not worth their time. and maybe they can guess well for this common damages. anyhow, very interesting to see this example dead boards. a good learning experience to share with us here

hi sorin, i bought defective laptop from facebook marketplace, i usually buy the totally dead laptop ,they are 95% fixable than those with power but no display... i bought 2 already and i managed to fix them 😁, one i3 6th gen, and one celeron 4c+4t, i bouth them for 35usd including shipping fee...

When I saw all the broken circuit lines (pads) I felt like dying! How is that possible! How does the user manipulate, i.e. insert the connector like that? ...could accept let's say 5 broken lines but ALL of them (omg). On the other hand, excellent work of patience yours teacher Sorin and therefore a happy customer. Thank you very much for sharing because here in North America it will be difficult to see a laptop from that manufacturer. Cell phones YES, they are common (people buy them). All the best.

i also had the same story with my S series Sony vaio (dead MB core i5) then i bought a working MB with a core i7 for just 25 euros and it was working fine.. other sellers from the UK were selling the same board with core i5 for more than 35 euros... so, this is it... you always should go for the best deal even if the seller isn't really trusted one

good technician .hard to find

Mega Good

That is a way of working. You tell the customer a price if you fix it and tell him other price if you do not, for diagnosis. It is gamble has you said. Here there is a price for diagnosis and the rest is customer decision.

Lucky new board ! How many chance to get this one and not a faulty chipset ?

Still a lot of work done for the charging port😊😊😊

As a customer, I would really consider to give the go ahead for the gambling. I understand it must be a shared risk.

Seller follows channel, sends best board that works,, easy marketing 😂 Woops pads gone lol

Sorin, the 3.3v and 5v always supply is short, I injected volt 5v at 5v pwr supply audio codec ic heated. But on 3.3 line I injected 3.3v board takes 5amp but nothing heats the pch is getting little warm but non component is heating, spend two days. Touched almost every component. What could be the solution.

Cool...

what?? solder mask?? no! that's wrong. we expect solder mask on the alex channel. here, it must be hot glue! uff. i hate this mixing. what's next? louis using a proper calibrated fuse? weird.

nice video as always. could you help me i need schematic diagram for Samsung Galaxy A8 2018 (SM-A530F) . cant find anywhere even on discord. thanks for our help

very very lucky

Dear Sorin, I thought that the problem of this series of laptops of this manufacturer was the failure of the SOC Package . In my opinion, the motherboards of this company are not in a very good condition in terms of quality. I think if you buy a BGA device, your success rate will be higher, there are many cheap options like Seamark ZM Series

Sorin! No coffee today?

So in this case the seller of the motherboard is selling mostly good motherboards but don't want to bother getting motherboards back, which is a great strategy from my point of view. Given that as soon said, I'd but them all for the repair shop as these laptops are going to be demanding lot of repairs. That's just my guess.

As I said, a lot of technician does not know to repair mother boards on a component level, they have a dead mother board for any reason, they do not even try to fix it.

sorin, why u not use hot glue?

Lastly UV jell instead of hot glue

You played the lottery and won.

Thats why im always carefull when plugging my laptop charger😬

Broken power port no issue for Sorin but big issue for 3 people who tested it. lol

I have been to a RMA dept factory sale and there was mountains of PC motherboards - bought 5 and 1 worked -. I'm guessing it's from a RMA dept, ie, if they can't get it running in 1hr they just swap it out. So it's either the RMA selling the old stuff, or it's from e-waste recyclers where the RMA stuff is dumped.

Восстановил разьем как-будто ногами)

me too i love this feeling that why i love repair

Lucky so Lucky

Sir How reset bios pass in this huawei motherboard?

so lucky

3 people test this board, yep it's faulty :D

8:03 yes Sorin, we buy from you if you say its not working maybe you didnt find Issue Kappa

Don't they usually give a rough description about what's wrong with it?

whats the name of the green past? Sb knows?

Hi there ive got Huawei D15 laptop and dosnt come on i believe it can be a charger or motherboard can you fix it for me

I bought a faulty laptop with a shorted PCH on ebay. Easy fix but need a bga rework station. Do i have to clear some of the bios instructions when changing pch?

I am curious: the specifications of the new motherboard are the same as the old one? The Bios of the new motherboard says i3 10110u which is entry level CPU, but D15 is also sold with i5 configuration

I am saying to my customers that if they like, we can risk. I'll buy a part, and spend time on a repair. If things will go sideways, they pay for the part, or I keep the device. Especially with TVs, laptops, phones and tablets. But with game consoles, I say that I can buy off game console if I can't fix it, I'll use it for spare parts. With dearer items like PS5, when you replace an HDMI port, you can see that an HDMI encoder can get faulty. Not often, but have 1 PS5 here with this issue. And, I've said to the customer that if he wants to proceed, now the repair attempt fee raise up to £50 because the chip itself cost £48 + my HDMI port.

imagine the conversasion between the three techs that checked the board . Its not working yes its not taking any power look the tracks ar broken ok lets put it on ebay

🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

10:17 look left on holder of port like someone catted pins with Scalpel knife ? like someone was lazy to test it and it just catted out all pins.... look little more close and you will see it ! so its good to buy used boards here looks like they have lazy workers :D damnnnn now i see when you removed to they destroyed that port :( Good job ! GG

come on sorin uv gel whats wrong with hot glue ....

I saying that you can fix a faulty board. There are a few people that are real repair mechanics but mostly the are to fast and when it comes to rebuild a truck or more. or a short the saying faulty and can’t be repaired. Idid it many Times and all reparable. If you watch Sorin videos 😂

lucky. simple

The `Three Stooges` signed that board ok

USB C charging ports suck !

thats because the people who sell it are not techs , just someone selling it for low price to move the inventory fast ! lol

"No booty vice"

Hahaha :) would you buy from me motherboard:) joke of the year :)

1

That's a big NO Sorin. Wouldn't buy from you. Haha

😂😂😂😂😂Sorineee dejaaaa,,,,,,, hai sa fim seriosi...bine,,,,,cum zici tu....daca ai vizualizari si bani asa excelent🤣🙄

... 1 april??? hmmm... 🤔

at the end of this video all the motherboards will be sold hhhh :) lol

wow .. just to show you can never tell on some parts ...

SORIN PLEASE at least one time, just one time show that you change the thermal paste, you drive me crazy, you put the heatsink without any thermal paste, just whatever crusted bits was left on it, PLEASE DONT KEEP SHOWING THIS to people, its not ok to do this, always change the thermal paste

mobo came with faulty port.. 3 technicians my *ss huh...

Will the user have problems when I insert the hard disk into the laptop because the motherboard has been replaced?

maine cafeaua?? vrei sa ma omoare soata?? sa vad cum reusesc sa fug :D

april fools motherboard :D

First comment

i would change the whole charging port with a usual dc jack....19v and ground and change the plug on the charger too!! thats it!! for me, i dont care about usb c!

Let's pray that Mother China and Father Fed will still be in a happy marriage, as to keep cheap delivering ...
