Nice save, how much are those mainboards? wonder if they have them for the 900C.

There's a guy who's sells the Emmc programmed for the 55” an 65” for $50. For some reason he sells the 75” for $200.
If you have hot air station might be a good deal.

I definitely think that would have worked Storyteller, but my dumb ass overheated my board and killed it completely.

The one I got was a refurb and it was almost $200. If I knew the EMMC was available I might've considered it, but I'd be worried about board damage as well as I don't have alot of experience with hot air and chip replacement. Something to work on though!!

Thanks Nicktronic, as fast as these eMMC's are dying, I think I'll let this one go, this one is edge lit, not my favorite type.

Sometimes you just have to say enough is enough lol.

I don't know if it's appropriate or not to ask in this thread, but does anybody have any reading material suggestions i can pick up to educate myself? Specifically to do with T-Con/Panel operation and troubleshooting (LED/LCD/OLED only). I keep seeing this Kent Liew guy pop up.
