Default Fixing my Mp3 Player...woah! - 28-09-2005

It's really annoying if either side is loosing a signal
on your earphones. the classic annoyance since
the wealkman's era. twisting bring backs the signal so it means
something has loosen up. Worst it's not my headpone jack or
cord, it's on the unit itself.
So after 3-4 hours of gathering enough courage
and geek power lol I tried dismantling and fixing my
good old mp3 player/flash disk.


The pics...


my little portable music buddy.



uugrrhhh! it was tough but i got the bottom cover
removed. but can't seem to do anything
as the problem seems to be on the other
side of the circuit board.



on the other side...
finally saw the problem and as i knew it
the other channel lost contact and needs reconnection.



soldered it for good, hehehe.




tested it first before putting it back together. ....wow it's working!
YEHEY!!!!!!!

So there you have it.
My major geek-tweak for the week lol!

Cheers!!!

kuul, although i don't think i could do it... just the thought of putting a screwdriver near my fragile innocent mp3player... I'll probably loose it somewhere before it breaks anyway


A greyscale with just one color? Heaven must surely be a dull place.
This calls for an extraordinary mix of psychology and extreme violence!

Well, I'd taken it to the shop, but, if you can fix it, why not?

I think he already did post up pics of the Woodputer©®. I'd search and post a link, but I'm busy man with important things to do.

Whether the people demand or not, beloved presidents usually ignore their people And I don't have such sentimental relations to my hardware, right now I just need to get a hand on that damned digicam.
