need more help
« on: July 29, 2008, 11:01:29 PM »
hey I just tried to do the dual nub but it will only work for X and no other buttons. I'm pretty sure I got all the points on the razor x soldered. But here's some picture of my powerboard. You can tell me if I've done something wrong.


I'm not the best at soldering so yea  :faint:
If its not how or where Ive soldered to then can you tell me what might be wrong

well since you have the x button working we know that you have the ground and the x button wires connected properly. remove the other wires and then scratch off the insulation from the button signal traces and try again.  and can you post of pic of the razor side too? maybe the problem's there and not on the powerboard.

why didn't you solder all the wires to the nice pads that are brought onto the bottom of the board?
Because my soldering iron is to big...

its not like you don't have the points right its the quality of the work. Don't do a job if you can't do it right. Make it less messy and clean everything up. Go buy a new soldering iron at radio shack for 8 bucks

Don't have a radio shack where i live. And if i buy it here it would cost me something close to $100 at a retail store.

I did but it broke after 5 mins when I plugged it in because(I'm suspected) the voltage for our country is 2.3 and the iron that i bought was for 1.5. I don't know if it's fixable but yea =\ It won't go at all now...
