 Solder mobile repair - Zero
I am s*** hot with a soldering iron* having been taught by an expert when I were a young avionics apprentice.

Solder braid does have it uses in certain circumstances, you need to flux the braid first. A solder sucker is better of course. The secret tho is not to lump too much solder on there in the first place. Luckily I have a (dwindling) supply of lead based solder, (one reel very fine gauge) and a good flux (apply minimum amounts with a cocktail stick) I have fixed USB sockets on many a tablet/pc board with my hot air gun.

I am steeling myself to take my Sony Video camera apart to see if I can fix that. Now that is an exercise in many fiddly screws and interesting connectors..........
