Can this destroyed pcb be fixed?

Block Image

I don't know, and neither do I want to know what and how the previous owner treated this ps4…

What I know:

-The broken hdmi port has been removed with a drill because they couldn't get the solder to melt…….

-The drill has slipped and hit 2 of the lanes going to the port

-The port has been ripped off taking some pads with it.

I know that soldering a new hdmi port there isn't a problem, but I'm not sure if there is anything that could've been damaged where the holes have been drilled, as the PCB is multilayered.

That looks very awful..if it was a very valuable board I’d look into schematics to get a clue on where to get traces and make jumpers but from a purely economical prospective I’d say it’s not worth the time and money at a glance..just my 2 cents..

Hi .

In my opinion this is fixable … but not as you expected.

In order to have a viable fix in order to use this PS4, you shoul get a HDMI cable ( a cheap one ) but one that has a male an female conector.

The idea is to solder the wires from the HDMI cable directly onto the board - use the end with the female connector.

You cut the cable in half splice it open and with a voltmeter using the continuity test to see wich wire goes to wich pin .

After you solder each wire to the respective pin i woul use the hot glue gun to set everything in place
