Bit of a general question.
need to replace a charging point on a mobile phone. It looks do-able, but very intricate.
see - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2mv4oULC2eo
Going to give it a shot as the phone is a bit buggered without it.
Done a fair bit of soldering, but not really at the micro level.
My main questions are a - which solder and b - which flux.
my pot of flux is like a grease, yet all the vidoes show a liquid being applied via a fine needle bottle thing. Just want to be sure I buy the right stuff.
And whats the deal with solder, I assume now its all lead free etc. ( I have various bits in the garage, but god knows where it came from/what it is.
Cheers in advance for any advise.
