No, there are no 100% permanent repairs on the market for this type of hardware failure. This type of issue has no permanent repair. We have seen our repairs last as long as two years, and as short as two months. The average life of a console after it has been reflowed once is in the 7-8 month range. If the unit fails outside of warranty.
