Heres the photo link of the damaged PCB in question. Notice the upper
right side behind charger port. Ive already removed the burned out diode and laid it along the power rail in the photo. What are the components near to that area and can I bridge anything to get it back working again? photo link is http://www.flickr.com/#/photos/77872404@N08 |

The diode did not commit suicide. It died because something further on in the circuit killed it. The diode was a sacrificial component to stop an actual fire from starting. You won't gain anything by replacing the diode without first determining what caused the death and repairing that. Paul |

Here is a direct link to your photo (no ads, banners, popups, etc): http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7040/6...c9554088_b.jpg Unfortunately I can't make out any of the part markings. :-( If your camera doesn't have a macro function, then sometimes a scan will produce a better result. Otherwise, can you determine where the diode's pads connect to? In particular, which pins of the charger port, if any, connect to the diode? Your "charger port" looks like a micro-USB socket: http://pinoutsguide.com/Slots/USB_pinout.shtml http://pinouts.ru/CellularPhones-A-N...b_pinout.shtml - Franc Zabkar -- Please remove one 'i' from my address when replying by email. |

Or use a magnifying glass and spacer tube and a few test shots to get to know the focus range. |

I'll second that - sometimes simply laying objects onto the bed of a scanner
can produce excellent results. Gareth. "Franc Zabkar" wrote in message ...
