HTC 10 Fpc connector - HTC 10 Questions & Answers

Hi, I've a HTC 10 that I changed its battery because the previous one got swollen and cause the screen to break and I haven't tried it till I got a replacement battery.
When I've plugged the new battery I tried testing the phone it does turn on but a black screen and the tactile works normally, After some diagnosis on the motherboard I've noticed that the fpc connector is broken and one of the upper pins was ripped.
Is the damage on the fpc connector causing the screen to stay black or should I just get a new screen replacement?
or can I make contact between the pin and the screen ribbon without changing the fpc connector?
Looking forward to hear your suggestions.

Damaged parts in my prophet

I previously bought a used prophet.
It was working fine when suddenly it randomly wouldn't take any touch command on the screen (when i click with stylus nothing happens)
I opened it trying to fix it, found out the flat cable between the board and the screen was previously damaged and soldered.
Now i ended up with a damaged flat cable and a damaged battery contacts part (the part that has the battery contacts on the board) which broke off.
Do you guys think I can find these parts? and is the flat cable a replaceable part or do i have to change the whole screen?
Any suggestion is most appreciated

You can get the flat cable separately (no need to change the LCD if it is still working).
The battery contact on the PCB will be a problem. How handy are you with a soldering iron?

Help with LCD cable and reassembly

I replaced the cracked digitizer on my phone and when done the LCD which worked fine before, is black- the backlight works and it turns on and works fine but there's no image on the LCD. I'm guessing the issue is with the connector to the motherboard and/or the trace/lead which connects the motherboard to the LCD. I've ordered a new LCD (it's the wide connector sort) on the hope that the issue is some damage I did to the LCD lead rather than the motherboard. Odd as the connector when in no problems and taking it out and reinserting had no effect (LCD still black).
Any hints on making good the ribbon connectors connection to the motherboard? I don't want to mess this up again...

PCB Connector Replacement

A few month's ago I'd ordered a LCD screen replacement for my incredible, and so when I got back from work o immediately took out the LCD from the package and started taking out my old broken. For me it was my first time experience replacing an LCD phone screen, anyways back to what I was going to say was when I unplugged the connector for the screen and the motherboard itself, after attempt to plug the connectors back together; the display connector plugged in perfect while the connector for the motherboard didn't do so well. The white piece that covers the PCB Connector, it tears a little bit off and I'd tried to power on the phone, meanwhile it didn't I tried again and things got worst. So I search online for a PCB Connector and see one, so I decided to and try to rip off the PCB Connector and plan to order the PCB Connector. So the part to attempt ripping off the PCB Connector didn't go so well, and stop there before things got worst. Any suggestions how I can replace that? I can't just leave my phone in my room and have to cover in dust. I need my phone back, how can I fix these? I know this thread seems long but I tries but it details for you guys.

[Q] So I broke the power button flex cable

What should I do?
There's no way I can afford a new motherboard, and it seems impossible to remove the power button flex for replacement without instructions, re-attaching a new one would be fairly easy I imagine, but I desperately need help for this one.
Are you absolutely sure you've broken it? Did you fix it? I have seen a couple devices where the flex cable pops out of its connector (especially if you go disassembling the device) but ever so slightly that the power button works only sporadically. The fix seems to be to reconnect the flex cable and the power button starts working.
torn power cable!!

I have replaced smashed screens and uodated the battery, then after I needed to hotwire the battery so I could finish flashing a ROM, I have carelessly managed to slightly tear the power ribbon up near the switch button. GRRRRR
I am about to attempt to drop a slither of solder across a slit I'll make with an exacto knife and see if I can get anything. It will power on as I added a switch in the NiMH battery pack I made up and was surprised that I couldn't make any selections while I was doing stuff in the bootloader functions. Bugger. I mabaged to relock the bootloader as I was going stock for something, then after power drain (I now realise that it doesn't charge your phone while in the bootloader screen) and now with a re-locked bootloader, I cannot select 'yes' to unlock the bootloader again suggestions? ...meanwhile, I'm about to probably waste my time attempting McGyver ribbon cable surgury.
I did actually manage to repair a ribbon cable using enamelled wire (30 awg) and a microscope but eventually just replaced the cable.
I bought a cable similar to the one you want for approx £5 which arrived 2 days later.
The on off switch and the other end are just held on with 2 sided tape, so will gently peel off by prying beneath them. I did think the other end would not come off.
My advice replace the cable.

microsolder replacement fpc connector to motherboard of htc one m8

I am practicing microsoldering skills, as I enjoy repairing broken phones. I have opened up htc one m8 and taken it apart and replaced broken screen, battery and daughterboard. However the phone has a broken connector for the second daughterboard cable. I cannot find out what this actual cable is called, it is on the top left of the motherboard, and is a very short cable, bent from the daughterboard. I have attached photos. Please can anyone identify this cable for me so that I can purchase the correct fpc connector?
