i know. shit ive got a lenovo ideapad z370, it literally looks brand new. the only thing is that the front cover has 3 very deep scratches, the keyboard is worn and the plastic has become brittle. nothings been replaced on the system physically. ive done upgrades on the processor to a core i5, changed the original hdd to a 512GB ssd, applied new thermal paste (MX-4) and lubricated the fan. its from 2011.
Strange these people do not feel any embarrassment about sending in a dirty sticky manky roughed up laptop. They do not even try to wipe it down first.. What must their home look like?
Nice fix Sorin! I hate trashed laptops like this. One problem fixed - you have another. I had this kind of job recently. Customer gave me trashed Asus. Told me to put SSD instead of DVD, Install Windows, upgrade RAM. Before do anything I checked if the computer is working in the first place. Surprisingly - he did. Then I assembled laptop back again he was dead. Spend hours to figure out the problem, and found that power cable was dodgy. Laptop was opened like thousand times before by the customer itself (screws damaged, in wrong places, different sizes, used even screws for wood!) A few pins were partly broken. I told the customer about the problem, he agreed to took it back and had no complains. After few hours, he contacted me and blamed that I damaged his laptop. Keyboard, touchpad was not working, because he lifted WHOLE screwed motherboard with cables still in places. In the end of the day, I was one who is guilty. So yeah, dodgy laptops and dodgy customers should be avoided in any possible way.
@@sodiumtechnologiesug366 Don't think so. Its a customer after all. Just do your best, and like Sorin said - "if I don't check that connector, most likely customer come back and say "You broke my touchpad". So take your time, fix that you can fix to avoid any problems, if needed, just inform customer about situation. If he agrees with that you offered and advised - it's a win. Dunno, I'm talking from my point of view. Maybe someone comes with better idea and story,
we love you sorin.but we never have charging port problems in our country.im very shocked to see how many charging port jobs you do i n your videos.love from sri lanka
Not many business do this any more.. usually they say oh it will be 50 bucks to fix.. and when it is done the job is 500 dollars when you paid 100 bucks for the lap top.. Only honest business men do business the way you do.. and there seems to me to be less and less of those every day.. thanks Sorin..
Hello mate, I have a problem with my laptop. Only works with Intel Graphic Card. It's no working with my GTX 880M, I need to disable on the BIOS and use only Intel Graphic Card. When I try to USE my GTX 880M laptop switch off. Do you have a repair shop?
Right now I'm dealing with the PS4 of Doom, my original PS4. It will work fine for days in a row and then it won't work at all. Nothing changes. All cables are fine. TV is fine, it's not the TV. It will work and then just decide not to. I'll take it apart and do nothing to it, reassemble it and it will work again. This repeats forever. I've done it probably 10x since I've owned it. Some have claimed it's probably a bad HDMI IC chip but it tests fine and a new chip is too expensive test the theory. Power supply shows 11.95v. HDMI port is in perfect condition. APU isn't skewed or lifted anywhere. All tests show normal traces and components. It gets full power to the PSU ans out of it. It just decides when it wants to work based on...? It's infuriating. It makes zero sense.
@@za-se4jv Thanks for the Information Man, funnily enough that's what I thought it might be. Just bought a Wow 1F Pro to replace the well used 1F ive been using 18mnths.
Thank you sir you're the best i am watching your videos since tow years and it helps me a lot with my small repairing project here in Damascus, wish you wealth and health and more success
I would not mind paying for the broken thing that was found in the process, like repairing the hinge. But I bet many people get mad in such situations and Sorin just doesn't want to deal with that.
i will take off the Hat or even CAP for you master class dignostic let's Say : "SORIN you are the best" i like the guys who working like that with carrbage and rubbish things so what i can see big WOW
that's why always tell leave it we will check what is problem and than call you to inform you what are options. fix hinge repair board or power jack etc... idk for me this is more professional than giving direct price and thinking what can go wrong on the way of repairing it.
Sorry I misread the date ? I will try to find a more recent video where you show that tool . Hello those cool clamp pliers are not sold anymore ? The models I see are bigger (Woolkraft and others) I have those kind but small may be better for delicate pressing (?) regards
all fine and dandy with the hot glue until the next guy tries and fails to open the laptop not knowing its glued in place and needs reheating; effective but maybe not the best practice.
i did, i saw multiple videos of him with the hot glue using it on the chassis aint that great of a call, unless the damage to the hinge screw posts is beyond salvageable
I put+ into the charge port and groud in the USB or HDMI it shows 20v , what does it mean？and I plug in power cable check the voltage is 0.44v very low on the power jet. please help
I have a lenovo yoga 3 pro that is completely dead. No lights. But I get voltage in some places. Ordered new connector for power to motherboard. Still nothing. What parts in the laptop can I remove to get some diagnose? Everything? Thanks
For hindges i personaly use acrilic resin for dental fixtures. Two component cold cured for reparing acrilic dentures. Liquid monomer and powder polimer, bonds in 10min. Some laptops have mixed plastics whit too much policarbonate in the mix, only than bond can be problematic. Othervise its beter that original
That is why you never give the customer a repair price just by looking for a few seconds. That, to me, it is not professional at all. The professional thing to do, is the customer leaves the computer, you check it with time, and you will call the the price. That way you will see broken hinges, and so on.
After applying thermal paste my laptop is not coming on, its not charging too. I did everything that non professional could do. Any suggestion? Is my motherboard dead because of thermal paste?
yeah it happens when someone like me tries to fix his laptop with things lying around in the house. I took my Lenovo y50 70 for motherboard diagnostic and one guy actually took pictures of the laptop because it looked like it went throuh hell and back. XD we both had a good laugh on it. 🤣
I have a Lenovo P72 The power supply that will only charge my laptop battery when I shutdown. The power supply will not run the pc without the battery. I have tried to use with a new power supply and get the some problem. When I have the power supply plugged in with battery. I do not see the little power plug icon next to the battery icon in the bottom tool bar. I even unplugged the battery and then plugged in the power supply only. I saw the pc reacted to it. I pressed the power button on lap top. It powered up without the battery at first. I got it to the point of logging in ............... Then it just turned off with out me doing anything more. Do you know what in the fix to this problem?
to diagnose a faulty charging port is easy and done in less then 1minute!...Multimeter on resistance and test the plus minus pins...is there a high ohm readings, its clear that the Charging Port is connected to the board!! if there is still no readings or open, then maybe the Port is the problem!! this were the easyest and cheapest fix! if there is a short , its difficulter, but even with a short you know, that the port is connected correct to the pcb
please I need your help I have Lenovo G700 it works fine without battery but when I put battery inside it will not power on again the the battery light blinks like low battery I need a fix please
Was the connector that was desconected when you connected bsck create estatic you forgot discharged the static well basically you did it taking off components but the easy way was pressing the power button for 30 seconds.
yeah, diagnose the laptop in front the costumer. tell him that the problem is charging port. then he says ok and goes away! then what?! you watch him go away, that's what. smh
Sir your laptop technician skills are amazing, I've recently had a problem with my Lenovo laptop G50-30 it switches off automatically while working from it. Don't really know what seems to be the problem, I think I need to replaced it with a better and faster one. Keep up the good work your videos are very inspiring.
good evening sir I have a Toshiba laptop its shown power and fine running but blank screen.and some time its shown smos better is low what can I do show me
Thanks for the video. You give many universal tips, which can point someone in the right direction. One thing : Is there a reason why you don't use a hot glue gun? They heat the glue out of a small nozzle, so they're very useful for precise work. They're very cheap too. Maybe it can save you some time?
I think because hot glue gun heats up way longer and they are olways broken , hot air reaching operating temparature in few seconds , if you have skill in your hands you dond need precision 😜
Lucreaza in bios recunoasterea diferitelor componente care le scoti/bagi, de aceea nu iti afiseaza logo-ul pe ecran, in background el lucreaza, am intalnit laptopuri care stau si 2-3 minute blocate undeva in detectarea componentelor in bios, chiar si la pc-uri se intampla uneori sa nu afiseze semnal video timp de cateva secunde bune, chiar 1 minut. Daca mai patesti asa sa ai iluminare dar fara afisare, asteapta 1-2 minute.
Hi I have an hp 15-f305dx. When I press the power button the charging light blinks 3 times nothing turns on. This is with just the mother board and charging plug connected. Would anyone now the problem? Thank you
Tell customer that the laptop was mess with and he did not said anything, He should pay more even if he was quoted for less, it is all on video as a proof, plus missing screws and a bunch of crazy glue and water on Ram. Customer should tip 20% as a thanks or do not allow this customer service next time.If all fails kick his rear end and keep device as a professional. It is not fail, what if the screen was damaged and motherboard badly burn...you can not just charge him for no ground only (They done that on purpose since they could not fix the ground and hinge). You got serve!
Great content !! I repair hinges too and to me best combo is two component epoxy just on screw stands and hot glue to seall it all.. It will never came apart.. Hot glue usualy holds good for some time, depends on a user... but it's not very good permanent solution
Hi dera sir how ru sir please make a video about Samsung galaxy s 6 edge microphone without changing the strip only microphone replacement I need your help sir don’t forget my Request I have this problem and I don’t have any idea that how can I solve it by universal mic 🎤
I also have this laptop Asus X453M. i'm trying to figure out and fix it myself. but i don't know what might be the problem. it's not turning on also. but when you plug the charger the power LED indicator will automatically lit while the charging indicator does not. and no response on the lcd. even if you click the power button. the LED light is just steady. i tried using the laptop w/o the battery to check if it is the bat. but still same scenario. can anyone know what might causing this? Thanks.
