How to Use a Hot Air Gun – iPhone Motherboard Repair Tips
One of the most commonly used tools in phone repair is the hot air gun, which requires a high level of technical expertise on the part of technicians. In both the process of soldering and desoldering motherboard components, a hot air gun is required.

Types of Hot Air Guns

Today we will walk you through some basic knowledge of hot air gun in phone repair. Hot air guns come in two main types: helical wind and vertical wind.

Helical Wind Type:
1. imarily used for soldering and desoldering larger components like connectors, NAND, CPUs, and WiFi modules.
2. Features gentle airflow and lower heat output.
Vertical Wind Type
- Ideal for soldering and desoldering small components such as resistors and capacitors.
- Offers concentrated airflow and higher heat levels.
Proper Use of Hot Air Guns

Proper utilization of the hot air gun can improve repair effectiveness, but improper usage may harm the phone. Different scenarios require specific temperature and airflow settings for the hot air gun. If the temperature is too low, component removal becomes impossible and soldering will be flawed. Conversely, high temperatures can cause damage to components and the PCB board.

What’s more, components will get blown away if the airflow is set too high. Therefore, proper use of the hot air gun is the key to phone repair

Then we will show you how to use hot air gun properly for phone repair. First of all, let’s take a look at how to desolder small components. Vertical wind hot air gun is used to desolder these kinds of components.

The temperature should be set around 330 °C-365 °C and airflow around 1-3. Because the vertical wind hot air gun heats up so quickly, please wait to begin working until the temperature is stable after starting up.

In addition, the nozzle should be kept vertical from the component with a distance of 3-6 mm. You should heat evenly above the component for about 13-18 seconds. Then remove the component with tweezers.

For soldering, the soldering method is the same as the desoldering method. You need to put the component in position firstly and pay attention to the temperature as well as airflow.

Next, let’s see how to desolder large chips with hot air gun. Corner adhesive needs to be removed when we use hot air gun to desolder large chips like NAND. Helical wind hot air gun is used to desolder these kinds of large chips. Please apply high-temperature tape around the component to protect surrounding components.

The temperature should be set around 365 °C-400 °C and airflow around 45-65. The nozzle should be kept vertical from the component with a distance of 6-8 mm.

You should heat evenly above the component for about 40 seconds. Then pry up the component with a pry blade.

In summary, the nozzle of hot air gun should be kept vertical from the soldering surface with a suitable distance. Other than that, the temperature and airflow of the hot air gun must be set properly according to the actual repair circumstances.

Please note that the temperature sometimes has to be adjusted according to the type of fixture. The synthetic stone fixture dissipates heat slowly, and the temperature can be lower.

The iron fixture dissipates heat quickly, and the temperature should be set higher.

Most motherboard repairs will use a hot air gun. Choosing the right one will make your repair easier with high efficiency. Two in one hot air gun has always been a hot-selling product in the phone repair industry. REWA Selected recommends the 2 in 1 SUGON 8620 hot air gun to you.

The hot air gun heats up quickly with multiple nozzles. You can easily switch between helical and vertical wind directly by changing the nozzle to achieve different application scenarios.

Besides that, its design is also very user-friendly, easy to use, and easy to place.

Choosing the Right Hot Air Gun

Selecting the right hot air gun is essential for efficient repairs. Consider two-in-one hot air guns like the SUGON 8620, which offers quick heating and versatility with multiple nozzles for various applications.

Conclusion

Mastering the use of a hot air gun in phone repair is crucial for successful repairs. Follow these guidelines, use the right tool, and maintain proper temperature and airflow settings to ensure efficient and damage-free phone repairs. For top-quality hot air guns, check out the SUGON 8620 at the REWA shop. Leave your thoughts on hot air gun usage in the comments section below.

Essential Repair Tools You Need for a Newly Opened Shop

“a cellphone in the U.S. breaks every two seconds”, reported by SquareTrade, a company that insures smartphones. Thirty percent of cellphone owners will damage their phones in the next 12 months, and one in 10 are currently using a phone with a cracked screen. That is to say, even cell phone shipments are approaching saturation, the market capacity of the repair industry remains large.

How many repair tools do I need to have? You may think about the problem when you prepare to open a repair shop. REWA repair technicians with 10+ years of experience have classified repair tools needed into three main categories as following:

Parts Replacement Tools

Logic Board Soldering Tools

Logic Board Advanced Repair Tools

Communication Maintenance Power Supply

The communication maintenance power supply is used for logic board repairing and booting test. The communication maintenance power supply is matched with Apple iPhone 4 – XS Max power supply test cable.

Hot Air Gun Rework station

The Hot Air Gun Rework station is suitable for a variety of components. such as SOIC, CHIP, QFP, PLCC, BGA (especially suitable for soldering of circuits and flex cable). The three tools are used to solve the problem that the repair shop faced every day.

What repairs you can do with the Parts Replacement Tools?

Replace the screen/battery/back battery cover/flex cable/ear speaker and diagnosis whether can power on, etc..

What repairs you can do with the Logic Board Soldering Tools?

Replace the IC/connector Not turning on diagnosing Replace the screen/battery/back battery cover/flex cable/ear speaker, etc..

What repairs you can do with the Logic Board Advanced Repair Tools?

Upgrade storage, unlock logic board repair, NAND repair, etc..

Repair Case Example: “I have lost all the files on my iPhone. The pictures, messages, contacts, and files are very important to me, can you recover the data?” How to recover the data? Let’s take iPhone X data recovery from dead motherboard an example.

Data recovery with iCloud

For phones with iCloud backup, you can recover the data from the iCloud.

Data recovery with software

For carelessly deleted data of phones in good conditions, you can recover the data with the help of some software.

Data recovery with hardware

However, if the two methods don’t work. How to recover data from a dead logic board?

Step 1. Use screwdrivers nd straight tweezers to detach the dead logic board from the iPhone. And then attach the dead logic board to the PCB holder.

Step 2. Detach the A8 CPU, EEPROM, and NAND Flash from the dead logic board. Please deal with these chips carefully. Because the three well-performed chips are a must of successful data recovery.

Step 3. Use the Soldering iron and the razor blade to clean the three detached chips. Rosin, BGA paste flux and PCB cleaner are also needed during the process. Step 4. Complete BGA reballing with the help of the hot air gun rework station, BGA reballing stencil, and straight tweezers.

Step 5. Detach the A8 CPU, NAND Flash, EEPROM from the new logic board.

Step 6. Transplant chips detached from the dead logic board to the new logic board.

Step 7. Get the logic board installed and test whether the data has been recovered successfully.

Notice:

1. There are possible risks for the logic board data recovery process.

2. Skilled repair techs are required for the operation.

3. The fallen pads are empty pads which do not affect the function.

4. Apple’s official after-sales support does not accept the phone repaired by third-parties.

5. The data can not be recovered if one of these three chips (CPU, NAND Flash, EEPROM) is broken.

6. This cellphone is still calling failed until this step because the whole process is for data recovery only. The phone may be faced up with some other problems. Here is a video guide for your reference:
