Everybody knows about the dreaded nvidia chip. Fix that using reflow machine, but it almost cause a major issue, as the plastic tape started shrinking during reflow process taking some chips off the board.
What's unbelievable is IT STILL WORKS!! But no video on external monitor because the chips were part of the VGA circuitry.

Dell D610... Dead. Eaaaasy fix!
Sometimes I'm just lucky and run into these easy-to-fix units.
Customer brought it in dead, no lights anywhere, with or without charger.
A quick inspections solved the issue, which was missing screws in the power panel, so it wasn't making any contact with motherboard. 2 hr job turned out to be 5 min job.

iPhone 4s....front/back cracked
You can tell I was pretty excited about this job, as it was my first time. All is needed is replacement parts, time and patience. 100% success plus confidence.
Aghhhh!! Forgot to take photos on finished job :(
Next time! I'm sure this won't be the last one.

iPad screen replacement..
Ahhhh, at last, my first iPad screen job, I won't even lie, I was pretty excited when I got this baby. Took my time.. Beautifully done, edges look like nothing happened, I've seen pretty sloppy jobs for quick bucks. I always leave the protecting plastic, so the customer knows its not USED, they also look pretty happy peeling it off.

Toshiba m505..stuck on bios screen.
Customer brought this one with a bios issue. Stuck on splash screen, OS never loads. "not enough space in runtime, smbios data won't b available".
Tried many things but what made it work was a little heat to
Bios chip. Don't fry it, just 'til u see solder glistening.
I hope I helped u save money.
