It is fairly simple business to desolder the old BGA chip and replace with a new one.

There are specialized shops willing to do this around the world. This is especially common in third world countries, Eastern Europe, China etc.. There are people who would do this change for around 5-10 USD in India (as long as you can find the replacement yourself).

I am amazed at how many people on this forum think of this as some scary dark magic.
