Whats the amp rating on the back? Should be like 9.6 usually for a corona and 13.5?!? for a trinity. ICR trinity's off-hand
Do you have any files from the console when you got it? Like the stock nand dump that was used to create the rgh image?
Yeah, just put a bit of at least 70% isopropyl alcohol on a q-tip and gently scrub around it, then use the other end to help pick up the broken down flux. The higher the concentration the better, but normal first aid alcohol is usually ok. Try to avoid the 50% stuff though because it has a lot of water in it. There was some around the chip, and on the board as you've shown. I see some at the nand flasher points just to the right also.The solder flux in this image?
Woah, that looks really messy.. Whoever did this didn't even bother to clean the leftover flux (unprofessional) that's sprayed all over those contacts.. Clean it with IPA as @brickmii82 suggested.The solder flux in this image?
From the pics it does look like it. Also there's no capacitors nearby that could be leaking -which can leave a similar looking liquid- to spread on the chip. Also it's clearly concentrated on that one area.."Leftover flux" being the glue like substance that I see on the board and contacts?
Yeah, actually. You can boot it naked, just make sure the fan is going and you don't put the power supply plugged into the board upside down. The touch button, ribbon cable, and rf board can be a pain if you don't have a controller synced to it or to plug in though.Will it only boot if it's put back together? Can I get away with my usb drive plugged in and a fresh launch.ini file and "open" as it is?
