Slove iPhone 6 Plus EEPROM PCB pins drops in large scale

Image
Customer said that 3/4 solder joints have been dropped when he had the storage expanded. After jumping wire  and rooting, iTunes reported error 4005 and screen displayed white Apple logo. step: When I receive the motherboard, it has no NAND Flash  and many jumping wires on PCB with green oil , as shown in picture 6-86. Picture 6-86 After observing the outer looks of the motherboard, I use multimeter  to measure the diode data of all the solder joints and they all have data. But, comparing these data with that I get from my previous repair cases (picture 6-87), I find that pin G5 should be about 700 and J5 should be about 500 (notice: different multimeter shows different data). While these two joints is about 700. The two data should not be the same. I guess that someone must jump the wrong wire. Picture 6-87 As shown in picture 6-88, when scratch the green oil carefully, I find that there is a wire and a via. Measure its diode data. The data of wire is a...

Soldering Tools You Need to Prepare in Smartphone Repair
