i know this post is old, but im getting into doing some deep hardware editing… like using an s8’s board and connecting it to a different external touchscreen, and inserting the hardware into a new handmade case. This was the result of my first search. thank you guys for assuring me things like this are possible

Most, if not all devices are now assembled using lead free solder as it is a requirement to be in the European market (ROHS) I would suggest using something like 1mm Lead Free Solder

I use 63/37 lead solder to repair most smd components. I use 62/36/2 to solder charge ports. I always use a good quality flux it can make a world of difference in the solder quality.

Craig you mentioned using a specific solder and flux. Can you provide the product info for both. I need to repair a Samsung Tab 3 7.0 charge port that requires soldering.
