No need to change motherboard. I did the same when I opened my HOX and broke them.
What I did to repair was that I went to a simple phone service and soldered Nokia pins connector and as a result I got even much better connection.
Try it and see.

Contact points for antenna?
Thank you for the reply, just one question do i need to worry about it being broken or should i try and repair it. The phone works and calls seem to be fine !!
Those prongs control either your Antenna, WiFi or GPS.
I can't specifically recall what that one is for because I don't have the phone in front of me at the moment..
You do need them though. If your phone is making calls just fine, it's probably the WiFi or GPS. I would test functionality of those to determine which antenna is broken.
If you're somewhat proficient with a soldering iron, you should be able to get that little guy back on there without a problem.
Good luck!
Thanks for all the help, i think it might be the gps or network. As wifi seems to work fine. Though i have made calls with on problems.
It would be very helpful to know which on it is tho, so any help would be great !!
Hi I think that's the connectors to the speaker phone if I remember correctly. The big speaker at the back.

Broken Battery Connector (solder pads)

So I successfully replaced the lcd on my optimus G...unfortunately I unknowingly broke the battery connector during the process (the female part soldered to the board).
Took me a while to realize what was going on, the phone was heating up and turning off randomly.
Anyway, it looks like the rightmost solder pad has lifted away from the board and the battery connector. Be REALLY careful when removing this thing people!
By chance does anyone here know where I might be able to jump this connection to? This solder pad seems to go nowhere - or at least not that I can see.
Thanks

hey u ever fix this issue? I have the same problem right now. Fixed the screen broke the battery connector lol.
I did not. Gave up and ended up getting a new board and giving it back to the owner. Wish I would have tested the new one before I gave it back. Perhaps there is a jumper we could have used.
Did you break the same pad?

Nexus has grainy screen

Hey all; I got a Nexus 7 this past December and everything was working great until yesterday.
I took it out of my school bag and when I pressed the wake button this happened:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Now whenever I wake up my Nexus the same thing happens. Sometimes it goes back to normal after a few seconds, but it continually freezes or has random slow downs.
I reset the device and erased all my data and whatnot, but still the same has happened.
Any suggestions?
What ROM are you running, stock or custom? Try reflashing a ROM (let us know if you aren't familiar with that) in case something's corrupted. Hopefully it isn't something with hardware.
This should be a hardware failure.Take it to the service.
@Pandae: Everything was stock. @GeoVali99: Correct-o, sir!
Ended up being a hardware issue so I'm getting it repaired.
I appreciate the words though!
Hi!
I've got the same problem.
Can someone tell me how to fix that Problem by my self?
I have no guaranty left...
Thanks!

Not a big deal. The LCD is fine. What happened in my case when I got exactly the same screen is that the amber ribbon (LCD to motherboard) seated wrong, and I bent a pin on the motherboard connector out of shape. You open the back cover and reseat it, but make sure you do not damage the pins. In other words do it very gently, do not force anything, and monitor it all with the help of a magnifying glass.

[Q] No Bluetooth/Wifi after Charge board replacement

The charge port on my phone went bad and needed to be replaced. The replacement went smoothly but now it I have no bluetooth or wifi antenna. I get maybe 1 bar indicated if I am a few feet from a wifi hub and bluetooth isn't working at all. I thought it might be something to do with the new charge board so I replaced it again with the same results. If anything it might be even worse now. Any tips on what I should be looking for that is wrong?
Sounds like you broke one thing fixing another . If it's physical damage you need to go backwards and check all your steps and see what happened.
If software issue try reflashing modem.
Pp.
I found the problem and it, which is a simple one, The fix though I think is going to be difficult. A very, very small capacitor is missing from the board. I must have hit it during the charge board change. If I knew the value of the cap I could probably solder a new one on. I have no idea how to find that out though. Here is a picture of the missing part.

A lot of internet digging has turned up the spec on the missing cap-
Samsung part #2203-006665
0.0022NF,0.25PF,25V,C0G,0603, C-CER,CHIP
That particular number is out of stock everywhere but I was able to find an equivalent from DigiKey.com
Samsung #CL03C2R2BA3GNNC
Digi-Key #1276-1403-1-ND
I bought 10pcs @ 2 cents a piece.
Good luck with the soldering,
In case that doesn't work for you maybe this will work for you.
Pp. Lol
Soldered in the microscopic capacitor yesterday and phone is back to 100%!

[Q] Motherboard Soldering

Hello. I have an HTC One M8 motherboard with a messed up ribbon cable connector for the digitizer (motherboard side). I've attached a few pictures to better show the problem, but they are very blurry sorry about that. In short, a couple of the pins are broken off to the point where they are not making contact with the cable itself. This causes the y-axis of the right side of the digitizer to be fundamentally unusable. Not possessing any soldering skill to speak of, I have spent hours searching for someone who is capable of doing this type of work, and have yet to find anybody. Does anybody here the tools/skill to do this? Or where could I go to get this fixed? Thanks for your time!

I would guess only HTC could fix that ...and they may even pitch it in the trash, and just change motherboards
