| minute | bkeys: i was able to fix the other customer's board by indeed swapping U10 for a new one | 16:45 |
| minute | bkeys: you can buy the chip here https://www2.mouser.com/ProductDetail/Texas-Instruments/SN65DSI86IPAPRQ1?qs=sGAEpiMZZMutXGli8Ay4kPxcInUG6p5idYYeGF%252BMjBo%3D | 16:46 |
| minute | bkeys: if you know someone who can (de)solder smd, you should be all set | 16:47 |
| minute | bkeys: hmm no, the problem reappeared | 17:13 |
| minute | bkeys: update, the problem was indeed fixed by swapping U10. secondary problem was short of 1.8V to gnd that i introduced accidentally on one pin by hand soldering. | 17:30 |
| josch | minute: i just read your latest mastodon post. I grew up with my father repairing TV sets 30 years ago -- this is impossible today. You just throw the TV away. The fact that one can repair your hardware the way you describe is one of the largest reason why I want to keep buying from you. | 17:55 |
| minute | josch: oh, thank you! | 18:02 |
| bkeys | minute: So I gotta send it back to the repair shop... | 18:13 |
| bkeys | Where is this chip located on the board? | 18:18 |
| bkeys | Nvm I found it | 18:19 |
| bkeys | I would say I have moderate skills with a soldering iron; I don't know if I can solder something this small | 18:19 |
| bkeys | Do I have to desoler every single little pin on the chip? | 18:20 |
| bkeys | I might try to repair it; I have never done this before but I suppose this is a chance to learn | 18:27 |
| minute | bkeys: there's big fuckup potential if you don't know what you're doing | 18:32 |
| bkeys | Well I have soldered wires together but I have never done component level repair | 18:32 |
| bkeys | Gosh I just spend almost 300 USD to get it repaired and now this | 18:33 |
| minute | bkeys: yeah, it is too risky then to start practising on this part | 18:33 |
| minute | bkeys: was the display working before you sent it to repairs? | 18:33 |
| bkeys | Yes | 18:33 |
| minute | bkeys: so they might have broken it in the process? | 18:33 |
| minute | did you send them only the motherboard or the whole device? | 18:34 |
| bkeys | Possibly, I can call them and ask about it | 18:34 |
| bkeys | The whole device | 18:34 |
| minute | did they connect it up by themselves again? maybe they had the display connector the wrong way around and caused a short? | 18:34 |
| minute | bkeys: also, to rule out software issues, you have a stock SD card, yes? | 18:35 |
| minute | i mean, with the stock image? | 18:35 |
| minute | bkeys: it's also possible that they broke the display when handling it somehow | 18:35 |
| minute | i see three possibilities: the display itself, U10, or the SOM (unlikely). or the cable (unlikely) | 18:36 |
| minute | (if software issues are ruled out) | 18:37 |
| bkeys | I have the stock SD card yes | 18:38 |
| bkeys | minute: Just got off the phone with them and they said the repair itself has a warranty and they will repair it free of charge | 18:38 |
| bkeys | Which is a relief, I'm not exactly swimming in cash at the moment | 18:38 |
| bkeys | So given that, I really do recommend these people | 18:39 |

| bkeys | Yeah I will do a write up to help their technician narrow it down | 18:47 |
| bkeys | I am relieved that these PSI people are helping like this | 18:47 |

| Boostisbetter | anyone on here using the Reform as their primary computing device? | 21:46 |
| bkeys | I am trying to | 21:48 |
| josch | Boostisbetter: yes, me | 21:50 |
| Boostisbetter | most excellent. I go through spouts of it, but haven't been super consistent. I think the pocket reform might finally get me to that point. | 21:57 |
| dodo | it's kinda hot.. like 10C more than my other laptops, around 50+ish | 22:01 |
| dodo | plan to take it on a trip in a few weeks though | 22:02 |
| Boostisbetter | Yeah, mine is around 50 too, but because of the acrylic bottom and the way the heatsink is attached, you don't really feel that through the bottom of the case much. | 22:03 |
| Boostisbetter | whelp, I'm rolling the dice and upgrading the Reform. 800+ packages to be updated. But as this is an internet facing laptop I figure I got to gamble every once in a while. | 22:18 |
