[QUOTE="Johnny_debt, post: 10187560, member: 590425"] I have 10 of the reball / green adapters. They were either missing some solder balls or the solder balls were not even height. I did question the seller and they confirmed that they come with lead-free solder. Since I had to fix the missing balls / ball height anyway, I just reballed them with leaded solder to reduce soldering temps. I used preformed balls, i imagine this is easier with a direct heat stencil / solder paste. I'm waiting on a stencil with holder for emmc to see if I can use that instead of preformed balls, but since the adapter is shaped differently than an emmc chip, it might not work and use of a stencil without holder might be needed. I've installed 4x of these reball adapters now, i'm a fan of how neat it is and also you don't need to cut soc frame if you are brave and just grab clk from the adapter (I've done this braver install on my personal TOTK oled which came with a sk hynix chip). However you run the risk of the emmc failing during the desoldering and soldering process (sk hynix reputation for failing / being brittle). It's safer to do traditional install with dat0 adapter to grab a backup first before tidying it up with reball adapter. You can also install these in 2 different orders. Option 1 would be solder the adapter to board then solder the emmc to the adapter (recommneded). The other option would be install the emmc on to adapter then solder the whole thing onto the main board. Option 1 puts less heat onto the emmc chip (since option 2, see below, requires putting heat through the emmc onto the reball adapter), however you can't really do the nudge test on the emmc chip since the balls under the adapter are probably also molten (probably more true if you reballed with leaded solder balls) and the whole assembly moves when you nudge it (surface tension). If you do option 2 you can do the nudge test on the emmc when soldering it onto the reball adapter then you can nudge the reball adapter (whole thing would move) to confirm its on the mainboard correctly. Also consider upgrading nand if you're going to pull emmc anyway, I upgraded mine and mounted the old emmc onto an emmc reader to make backup (I didn't cut soc frame on my personal switch). [/QUOTE]

I rather enjoy a life of taking it easy. I haven't reached that life yet though.
