Main Flex Cable?

Hello,
Does anyone know where I can purchase a replacement flex cable for the slide? I purchased a phone off ebay, and found that the cable is bad.
Thanks

I'd suggest googling "mytouch slide flex cable"...I'd do it and post a link but I'm not allowed yet

Thanks for the suggestion. Tried that out, no luck unfortunately.

Bestbuy, Walmart and so on. A lot of places have the USB you're looking for, hell, it's the same one all newer blackberry's use too. It shouldn't be too hard to come across.
Maybe try... amazon.com. Seen them on there before and ebay sux anyway, it's a www.ripoff.com kind of site for the most part.

if you're looking for a USB cable. do a google search for "Micro USB cable" they look like $1 and up.
If you're not looking for USB...no clue

Its not the USB cable. I'm looking for the main cable that connects the LCD, touch assembly, and motherboard.

Hey dude I need one too. I found it on internet but you have to buy minimum of two.
One cost $60 and two would be $120
If you are sure about this then I can buy two and sell you one.

Thanks for that! I just found out now that the MicroUSB/MHL connector is directly on the mainboard... I thought it would have been a small seperate PCB... that's going to be annoying to repair!

you can't buy it, everything is on ther from the cpu to display, wifi and radio, your only option is take it back to samsung.

No, unfortunately not. It works better with certain cables... I can get a socket for 8 euro... I will check out repair costs and I may buy the equipment rather than pay a ton of money to get it repaired if it comes to that...

Do you successfully replace it? And where you find it?
Because i think mine have to be replaced. Is it hard to replace?
My i9300 felt few times one ground with charger and i accidently drop cofee on it. Then, only charge remain and 2 days after nothing. But everything else is working perfecly.
Thank for helping me!
Sorry for my inglish, its not my native language.

Hi, the socket is on the motherboard and not a separate piece like on some other phones. So either replace the motherboard for about half the price of the phone or find a repair shop that will solder a replacement part on to the phone for you.

[HOWTO][VIDEO] Note II Micro USB Flex Port replace

Hi guys.
Recently, I had to change out my micro usb charging port because the previous one stopped working. I don't know if it had to do with heat issues and messed up the soldering. Sprint said it was because of water damage, but I'm very very protective of my phone and have yet to have any contact with water in it.
When I got the piece, I figured that I would make a video on how easy it is to replace the piece. I've never contributed to this site, so I figured I'd like to do something
I ordered the flex piece from this site for $11.

Never done something risky like this before, but it sure was rewarding getting it done. In the mean time, when I waited for the piece to come through in the mail, I bought a charger from Ellis batteries for $15 and a separate battery. I wonder if I can return it :3.
Hope it's helpful

Alot of my friends had this issue, and so did I, luckily I was covered by warranty. But I was f***ing heartbroken when it happened. When/if this crap happens again I will know to find your post. This is freaking awesome!

I almost feel like samsung knew they put fragile ports and crap in the phone because from what ive noticed most of the components are attached with ribbon cables instead of soldered. I ordered a new headphone jack due to worn out pins, and I wont be suprised if I have to replace the usb port one day.

Awesome It was a crap feeling that I had to dish out $50 for a battery and charger that was only temporary (guess I'll be using the extra battery as a means of emergency power, especially when going downtown)
m4xwell - I think it sort of goes both ways. Essentially, the pieces being easily replaced was in fact a smart idea. Of course the downside is that the pieces are a little more fragile as you said. Thing is, with the constant wear and tear in plugging in the charger, I would imagine that the ports would get worn out in a matter of time. I feel micro usb vs mini usb has some weird differences, with the micro usb being more fragile. My old nokia and LG flip phone had zero problems with the charging port. Guess the dinosaur age is still king

[Nexus 7 2013 16GB-Wifi Model] Help with Nexus 7 Logic Board.

I have a Nexus 7 2013 16GB Wifi Model, and i bought it to a local repair shop. But it seems i was ripped off as the repairman could not repair it.
I noticed that some of the circuits are missing from my Nexus Logic board and Nexus no longer boots up.
Can anyone please help me determine these circuits? Here is a picture of the logic board.
All that is marked with a yellow star in the picture is what i am asking about...
Code:
drive.google.com/open?id=0B7LGwJIcFvH1WUtyNWZSTnhYRFU
And also are these parts important? Will the tablet work even without it? Where could i get a replacement of these parts?
Thanks in advance.
P.S Sorry for bad ernglish

What was the original problem? What is the board's revision number?
If it is rev.1.4 and the components are unsoldered/missing, then you were indeed ripped off.

Yeah mines the same revision to the picture you attached. (ME571K_MB Rev 1.4)
The problem was that my nexus was charging really slowly but i didn't really put much attention to it. Then one day while charging my nexus i accidentally dropped it and the charging port went loose so i sent it to a local repair shop to fix the port.
The repairman said the charging ic was also the problem. but then after a few days they still couldn't repair my tablet.
They returned it looking like a mess.
battery wires were a bit chipped off. (No problem here, i used a tester if it still has a connection to the board)
the charging port was soldered upside down.
copper pads covering the circuit was removed.
some of the plastic parts on the speaker looked melted probably due to the solder mishandling.
So is there still a solution to the missing chips?
BTW. Thanks for the reply.! :good:

The charging IC is probably gone if the port was soldered upside down and powered up. The missing components can not be identified because N7/13 circuit diagram is not available. A working, second-hand N7 motherboard can be purchased for $25 on eBay and it's the cheapest solution. Let us know how it goes....
:fingers-crossed:

Oh ... so it's really busted huh. Thanks for helping me out.
But buying another logic board isn't one of the options i have.
I guess that i'll have to sell it somewhere then.
Thanks again.!

Sell the daughterboard after you fix the port, it only has the touch IC and should be good. Those are worth quite a bit. So are the screens especially if you include the frame. Just selling those separately should be enough to get you a n7 2012 or even a 2013 if you get lucky.

replacing charging port

My charging port is very temperamental. The cord needs to be a just the right angle etc. I'm thinking of replacing the charging port. On ebay there is a kit for $13 (ships from China). And there is also an ifixit guide to replace it. https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Google+Pixel+3a+XL+USB-C+Port+Replacement/124576
Has anyone done this before? My main question is, do I need to use adhesive when I put the screen back in, and if not, how will the screen stay in?

I would just take it in and have somebody qualified do that kind of job

I agree, take it in. They have the proper tools and adhesives, plus you will usually get a small warranty on their work. Unless you're planning on making a hobby out of screen replacements lol.

Thanks. It seems crazy to spend $100 to have the phone fixed (thats the price I was quoted) when the phone's value is now around $200. But, spending $100 is better than breaking my phone.
