Tablets charging ports repairs and few words about electronics 

Almost 2 years ago I had an infection in my arm (I almost died, and I also almost lost my entire left arm). I was quite depressed because after a lot of recovery I could not work from what I always did (Woodworking with cnc machines). Then I decided to go back to repairing desktop computers like when I was younger, but there were already many people doing the same, I could not pay the medical bills. I started studying how to repair laptops, phones, tablets, etc, and I ended up coming to your channel. Thanks to you Sorin today I have a profitable job that I love. Thanks to your desire to share your knowledge today I can have a good life. Then for the third time THANK YOU SORIN!

Sorin = The Most Honorable King of Petrol and Amps. Master of Unorthadox Repair Methods. Teacher of Priceless Knowledge.... Thank you for sharing your skills......

Since i have found your channel i'm like a child watching cartoons. Some videos i've replay 3-4 times. It is so relaxing and informative. Thanks a lot for the effort Sorin !

When you upload a video it feels like christmas.

I also watch louis jessa chris etc, problem is they lose me after 5 minutes as too technical, YOU on the other hand I can actually understand and follow, because of your videos my successful repairs went up 100% ..

"I know it's dodgey. It's fine now, let's check it together." Truly a good man. My grandfather taught me the same way when I was a kid. Now I have the honor of showing others ingenious ideas to fixing outside of the box. Sorin as always you make my day. Thanks

You may not go "deep" on the repairs, but your depth of knowledge is astonishing and your techniques are terrific. I recently tried my first "glue sandwich" hinge repair and it is rock-solid. You are a blessing and a gift. Thank you for your efforts and I'm so happy to have you posting new videos!

Can't believe it. I fixed something electronic for the first time. I would never dream of taking shit apart....but as I was watching I was thinking I got them little tools in my coil build kit for vaping. I was always afraid to open things as I know my memory is really bad and I would not be able to put it back together... My problem was fixed by removing the little battery...thx man I appreciate it .

It would be awesome if you could post links in the description, for all the tools that you bought through the eBay.Cause am considering to start fixing phones and laptops myself and I don't want to buy wrong tools. Seeing you fixing all these different devices with ease it's very inspirational. Thank you for all the great videos and keep them coming.

I like Louis, and I like Jessa, but I LOVE LOVE LOVE Sorin!!!!! I love the videos. Thank you so much!

Hey Sorin. My comment was meant in jest and meant to be humorous. Haha. You should of read it all out. My friend your channel is brilliant!!!! I have learnt so much from you. I like all your video's. My actual favourite was your moon night sonata one. Felt i got an understanding of the you. It's not just your video's that everyone loves! It's Sorin. I'm sorry if i offended. If ever i am your way, i will buy you lunch.

you are doing such a nice job demystifying electronics repair.

Howdy from Idaho! I have to say Your videos always have so many tidbits of wisdom, not only to do with electronics but other things as well. I always watch your videos to the end because there are so many treasures to be had. I can’t tell you how much your videos have aided my troubleshooting abilities and my confidence. I’m a maintenance tech by trade and so I deal with anything from electronics to motors to valves and your method of troubleshooting has aided me greatly. Thank you, sir. You truly are a master and please keep making videos for us to enjoy and grow from.

In life like your channel I have found that simple, common sense and direct approach to repairing things is best. Your direct and logical approach to diagnosis and repairs are an art form on top of the electronic science. Your teaching style is the best because you explain things so a beginner can understand, follow and really fix things. Nice work. Thank you for your work and helping us.

I absolutely enjoy your common sense approach to troubleshooting electronics. I have learned so much watching you work. You're a great teacher. Thank you so very much for sharing your experience.

Your funny sometimes I will never be able to repair tablets like you I would be the one making the problem worse no matter how long I stared at the tablet I would never be able to fix them like you I too have looked at other electronic fix it channels and you are unique in your abilities I think your skills are brilliant you fix all these items without a schematic through knowledge only It takes great skill to do this and you possess this skill Always good to watch your videos There are a couple of Canadian guys similar to you that I watch you all have the experience to fix electronic devices and its always good to watch you repair things yet again you have great skills

You have a lot of knowledge that many such films can learn a lot. Nice touch

Unorthodox but effective greetings from Greece

Everyobe gonna die one day, but sharing knowledge and science and good manners makes Eternal.

Thank you Sorin for all your hard work, you changed my way of troubleshooting, i recently took a HP DV6-6000 which was dead i did as you did and traced it back to faulty mosfets in the drive stage for the vcore. I also changed the MAX17480G ic and it started working normally PQ104 (fdms7692) was shorted same with some capacitors. But Sorin do not feel bad if your not able to upload more "advanced" repairs as you mentioned before, your channel is the best one on youtube. /Peter

So good to have you back, Sorin!

Hi there. How are you this Monday morning? I just want to say thank you for taking your precious time to make the most interesting and educational videos, and teach the interested viewers the basic approach to electronics repairs. There are only two sites that I watch the videos form the beginning to the end. One is yours & other is Louis Rossmann's. And let me tell you, I enjoy them tremendously. Thank you again for the hard works you put into your awesome videos, and good luck!! With Best Regards, Shahbaz

Yay! You are back! Even without you teaching us, we want to see you! :-) Good going! And thanks! You're a good guy!

Welcome back Sorin, nice to have your charming personality back to keep us all entertained.

Doctor of Electronics I thank you for unlimited patience.. I AM FIXING THINGS DOWN IN AFRICA (ZIMBABWE).. Please give us more vedios patterning how switching power supplies are working Especially on Tvs..Practical vedio l think can be helpful,, once again thanks for the theocratical part Doctor Sorin

Excelent video. You can find shorted caps even if they are no very short. Your knowledge is big, you know how electronics work. And that's why you can play with amps and petrol. I like your style of fixing things.

Weeeee, welcome back, I just found your channel and I love it, thanks for all the information

I mostly wanna repair car engines but for some reason i like your channel

Salut Sorin, am gasit canalul tau din intamplare si de la prima vizionare am reusit sa repar un laptop Asus care nu se alimenta. Multumesc frumos, sunt mandru ca esti roman si ca esti cel mai bun din domeniu, bravo!

Hello. First of all thank you very much for investing in this channel, which is at least a place for personal learning and development. I would be happy if you can explain me a little more detailed about the way of finding shorts on boards , and how to identify the voltage line or power line in different devices. Many thanks.

The way I see it, cracked the first tablet, lost $500, I humbly watched your videos and saved the replacement tablet, so I saved $500 which I could have lost again. Now I want to prepare ahead and buy tools first before I buy another tablet.

Thanks sir,i like to fix things without schematics. I have no power supply but l will have it in the near future. You are a great teacher for me and electronics is my passion.As graduated in electronics,i have to learn more and more about electronic repair. Thank you again my teacher and have good job

BIG Thanks for video about dell e7240 dead laptop!!! reset bios, i have fixed 16 laptops. Thanks.

Keep up the great work from Surrey Computer Solutions 👍

Thanks for videos amp man!

Congratulations on your channel. Absolutely, an honor to have input from an experienced electronic repair tech as yourself. Was wondering if you can discuss your USB Volt Meter hook up. It is a valuable tool that I find indispensable.

Wow man, i can't believe we have so much in common :D now i'm 20 years old, and when i watch your videos i feel like i'm watching myself in future. Before 6-7 years i was intrested in sport bikes, but only could afford dirt bike, then i wanted to understand how engines work, after maybe year, i found Fl studio and started make music, had same experience with songs like you said :D you can check what i created in my youtube channel if you want. And now i`m studying computer science university, and i`m extremly intrested in understanding how electronics work. Your videos helps a lot, i had fixed a lot of stuff, but by luck like you said, now i`m starting to understand what is what(still had to destroy some motherboards with 19v on 3.3 rail, but thats how we learn) ;D I could write and write, there are so much to say what we have in common. So happy that i found your channel, keep doing what you doing! Best of luck! :) P.S sorry for my english, i am from Lithuania ;)

im Downloading..... your all video :) thanks sorin

really a great explanation about electronic repo man life. Like your statements.

Thank you Sir ! I'm definitely learning and your not boring ! My Operating Systems is boring lol!

YOUR WORK IS GENIUS OUTH OF THE BOX AS THEY TEACH PEOPLE IN SCHOOL THEY HIDE RIGHT KNOWLEDGE THANK YOU COS YOU EXIST

The AMPs Man strikes again!

Hi mate, instead of using hot glue I usually use super glue. Put a small schamfer on parts to be joined, put on some super glue and sprinkle baking powder on the glue and it goes hard as rock. Just repeat to build it up, hope you like this approach.

very nice video , another nice way to trace hot components is with a thermal camera , they are becoming not too costly , finger is traditional also

i like when you tell us some story, i can run the youtube in the background when i have some stuff to do and i can not watch the video...please do more videos like this even about random stuff, i like listening you :)

I'm so glad you've back :D

Thank you so much

You may not speak the best English but you make it so easy to understand even by Diana.....KIKIKIKIKIKIKI...

I used to do small repairs on the older electronics using similar methods with freeze spray also, but when the smaller smd components came out I gave up and thought it was too specialised. I found your channell by mistake and I'm back into fixing things rather than swapping out boards. I can find the faulty compontent, but I cant always find a replacement of tell what the component is.

always good to see you big like

Hi sir, another technique to find a short is by connecting your Power supply configured as 100mA and 1.5V, connected directly to your multimeter probes (same polarity), and your multimeter configured in millivolts reading. This is called 4 wire measurement and can be made with a lab power supply. The closest the power leads are to the multimeter leads the better reading you'll have.

this is awesome

Hay sorin i also make this flux and it's work awesome thanks sorin . love uuuuu

ive gotta watch the petrol video. sounds hilarious. crazy i was just wondering about the power supply and air gun. i have watched many of your videos and this particular one i was thinking about purchasing the power supply and you brought it up, i was like woah! i would never be able to do a live stream. your videos are a great help already

Hello sorin sir, welcome again.

thank you so much sir for your videos ... i am really learning so much from you .....why you don't fix pc desktop motherboards ... i would like to see you do that ..... can you please do a video explaining desktop motherboards power rails and how to check them ...goodluck to you

This channel is good because it is not the same thing all thw time. Its, iphone, its Samsung phone, tv, tablet, all kinds of brand stuff. So it makes it interesting to see whats next and how everything is different in side. But the knowledge you teach showing people how to find faults It can apply to all kinds of things. I cant help to think Sorin doesnt use vape juice. He actually vapes his flux. 😂😁. Who needs vape juice. When you make your own liquid flux/juice.

nice video amp man as always

Thanks Ampman.. :)

hallow sorin enother nice video thenks for your time

thank you sir

Left handed, then look away and look back you are writing with right hand? Would love to be like you. Good lesson

Good amps man

m8 keep up the good work

Please guide more about No-Display problems

Yes..i've repair with lucky situations.. my acer laptop died about 5 year (2015)just keeping in the box n store..last weeks after covid19 breakdowns i try to open n check all part than i taking risk to replace powerchip...it alive you know...i tell inteligent member about that...that is your experience lucky...

You are worlds most badass master. But the lovely one

salutare, esti cel mai bun!

back.from morocco .i watch all your videos is very very good explan and easey to do this.but i dont know why u take long time to post other videos

I am from Turkey Thanks

We back in business 👍

can you put a link of the people your are folowing , just found Louis Rossmann and STS telecom, thank you

Maybe two more ways? 1. Not petrol but alcohol ketonatus (or ketanus?). Might evaporate quicker and cleaner than petrol? 2. Heatcamera? Simple FLIR thingie?

You Can use also a milli-ohmeter there is a kit for about 16$ online ... :) Personally i inject some amps ( Sorin School ) and i Watch the board using a Flir-one

happy to see your videos again ,keep up to good work.

Maybe this is not a simple question on a childs toy made by vtech why would I be getting 5.5v nearly everywhere also both the + and - of the speaker output. But can't get a continuity between the usb port outer case to the battery negative input on the board? This would be a short? But to 5.5v not ground?

Nice job Amps man hahaha

does he have video on shorted cap on vcore?

isnt there another way.... kelvin method 4 wire with the resistor? where the smallest value is closest to the shorted cap??

Hi again could you possibly tell me where to get laptop schematics from online? Really learning massively from you sir your very good at what you do indeed! Thank you for all your videos hope the keep coming thanks again. 👍

In the video you connect a power supply at the same time with the charger is possible to do that.

hi! i wanted to ask you. is it more preferable to do ''expensive'' repairs such as iphones touch ic etc.. where you can charge around 80 pounds than charging ports and screen replacements? in my town there are lots of stores doing ''easy'' repairs like touch panel replacements and the prices are very low. on the other hand iphone or mac repairs are expensive and few shops in greece can handle them. i believe that becoming an ''expert'' on one type of repair such as iphones gives you better money. whats your opinion?

Do you need any paperwork work other than I guess liability insurance to fix electronics ? If your taking money for it as a service ?

Just realised my previous question about the vtech toy I know it can't be answered as easy as that but what can I start time check ? I have watched loads of your videos start to end but haven't come across this kind of fault yet and how to approach it

Hi again..As your ffrom another country just thought id say im quarter Hungarian... my grampa escape from fascist in WW11 and land here in the uk.. anyway when you said if i dont have something to learn , im lost..That is exactly how i am...Iv got to keep learning.. Im an game designer by degree 2.1 and 3d artist but originally house dj way back in 87 88.. i started in fl studio . it was called fruityloops back then... i seen it progress from a drum machine to what it is now . a full D,A,W.. Now i use a diff program to create music..its called Ableton... for making music from other music and plugins, vst.s synths. reaktor and the likes its great. have a play with ableton...But fl studio has a great audio engine and great automation. you know how long it took me to learn the basics of music making...20 years...and i learnt to play guitar and play music... i thought i did not have to understand " music" to make it with something like FL but you do..learn an instrument and it will help you so much more... here ill show you my 3d work and my portrait work.. all hand made and painted in a computer with wacom stylus. Another thing, i wanted a rickenbacker guitar like my hero PAUL WELLER.. I could not afford 2 thousand pound so i made my own.. half way down my page you will see my diy ric.. mines the black one on the right the one on the left is a real one. 2 years it took me. as i have no money for parts so i buy 1 part every 2 weeks..lol... www.artstation.com/anthonyjones1 im 50 this august...time flys..when your buzy :)

ampman😀👍👍👍👍 I like it good name.

I always turn off Adblock for sorin 😜

I hit the like button before even watching the video.

What is the usual fault with a tablet motherboard usually Samsung tab which won't turn on and gets around 0.45 amps?

Good Morning....

When are you going to upload some new videos? I don't get tired of them.

I think your name is "Mr Hot glue." :-D Dam good for hinges, as long as you make a sandwich, see we do listen :-D

The Amps Man :))))

Why are 0 or 00 or 000 resistors used ? Are they just used as a bridge or jumper?

you are best for everyone...........

amp champ!

Sir after a long time....😢😢

sorin i have a question why u can not clean flux in ending job

I question where do you buy the parts for cellphones ? because they are so tiny , and too bad your not in canada , because i would pay you $40 hour to work for me :)

Another less dangerous way to see what area is hot is with a thermal camera.
