The Dan Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 Annoying thing is I've desoldered heaps of ICs before just using my soldering iron and a solder sucker... this one's just being a right prick for some reason. I too, have desoldered many before but I can tell you now, if you sit there with the solder iron on it for too long, whe nyou go to lift it, you will pull the track up with it. The ONLY way you should do it is with a heat gun or cut the pins, then manually extract each one with a bit of heat from the solder iron and a pair of pliers. I hope it's not too late Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/261269-inner-west-crew-whoretown-toowongst-luciakenmoreindooroopilly-and-sometimes-sunnybank/page/1546/#findComment-5704196 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think that will happen but I did get a little bit drunk and then a little bit angry... If I have f*cked any of it a little circuit repair shouldnt be a problem. Unless the PCB is multilayer, which I don't think it is? (Two sided is OK, just as long as there are no middle layers) Fark! Keen! It'd probably take me 6! Would take me all weekend. Guaranteed. There might only be 3.5 hours work in that, but it would take all weekend to get done .

They are a double sided non multi-layer board. I already had to make a repair on one of the fine tracks, not sure if you saw it. If you can get it to me before Thursday, I can get it back to you on Thursday. If not, it would be Sunday at the earliest as I'm in Melb for TopGear Live on Sat.

Smity42 Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 Morning Mangs, ^^^Forgot to finish that sentance, awesome. Still makes for a good 'thats what she said'. WHat I meant to say is I will have it in my hands this afternoon Had a GG of cricket last night, Made 20* off 10 balls, and my 2 overs were 3/-2. We took full points for the game but the team above us also won, so we didn't make the finals . I think they are going to run a second set of finals though for all the teams that didn't make the real ones... Anyone know what's involved in switching from 3 to Telstra when my contract expires (soon ) and keeping my current number?

-Boz- Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 Anyone know what's involved in switching from 3 to Telstra when my contract expires (soon ) and keeping my current number? Walk into a Telstra Shop. "Hi, I'm currently a customer with 3 and I'm sick of their shitty service. I want to switch carrier to you guys but keep my current number, what can you do for me?" Watch them fall over themselves trying to get you to switch. I did this when the iPhone 4 came out. I had been a business customer with Optus for 7 years and they told me it would be a two month wait for the iPhone as my contract had 6 months to go at that point. I walked into Telstra and they had a phone in my hand, doubled the data allowance for the plan at no cost, paid my early exit fee from Optus and paid the transfer fee for the number and had it all done in less than 30 minutes. Two month waiting because of contract reasons is not how you treat a customer who has been with you for 7 years. My entire family pulled their contracts and went to Telstra as well for more or less the same reasons with similar results.

Do I have to do anything with 3 then to cancel my service or will the telstra mugs handle it all?
