    Samsung 305T - Is this the Altera BGA chip issue?

    Hi Guys,
    I have a 3 year old samsung 305T that just started to exhibit a strange issue. Its hard to exlpain, but its a blue distortion. It flickers and moves all around the screen. It is especially bad when there is a dark background. I attached a couple pics.

    Is this the Altera BGA chip issue? I can have it reballed for about $100, but want to be sure before I spend the bucks.

    Thanks,

      If you haven't done so, take it apart and post good focused photos of the entire power supply top and bottom. Also, post a photo of the logic board. Do not post photos inline, but use the "manage attachments" button.

          Guide to transplant MEC1503 EC chip and EEPROM reprogamming for T14s gen 2 and X13 gen 2
          by acedogblast
          This is a guide that I am writing for helping others to replace their MEC1503 EC chip if it breaks (or to get around an inconvenient prompt to the BIOS). This forum has been extremely helpful to me so I would like to contribute to help others. I will tell you right now that this task is very difficult to do. You MUST have experience and tools to do precision micro-soldering, BGA reballing, trace repair, and general laptop repair skills.

          There are some specialty tools needed to do this task. The replacement MEC1503 chips can be acquired from Aliexpress. Do not buy the bare chips as...

          A1989 Logic Board Repair Issue. One CD3215 chip is the culprit
          by Stephen
          As the title states, got one CD3215 chip being a complete butthole to me. All readings on the other 3 chips read as follows
          5.16V .47amp
          5.16V .47amp
          5.16V .47amp
          5.16V .04amp (this guy is the issue) (U3200)

          So I went ahead and replaced the chip, (actually 3 times with 3 new CD3215 chips) all same issue, at first it wasn't reading at all then it finally started reading. I can rest assured is it not the CD3215 chip now but something else is causing this port to not fully read (god I wish the board would just turn on so we can just recover the data)

          Samsung SyncMaster 740n Phase Control Issue
          by vincentedel
          Hello,
          I'm having an issue with the Samsung 740n's phase control setting. When I use the automatic adjustment, it sets the value to around 54 (with a range of 0-100), and the picture looks clear and sharp. However, after some time—like after playing a game—the text starts to look blurry. When I auto-adjust again, it may increase the value to 80, and everything becomes sharp once more. Yet, after a while, whether it's a few hours or a day later, the same blurriness returns, and I have to adjust it again.

          I'm using the Samsung 740n monitor drivers instead of the default plug-and-play...
