Power button ribbon ripped and trying to replace it. I have new ribbon/button part but how is it actually connected to the top PCB? Old button assembly appeared to be adhered with heatless solder paste - but how should the tracks be aligned for this to be used? Desperately need to fix daughter’s phone… Thanks in advance
try these website there cheaper: http://www.aliexpress.com/item/For-HTC-O… http://www.etradesupply.com/htc-one-mini… these websites are cheaper but they take longer to come and i have order mine from aliexpress and im still waiting for it. i hope dis was a bit of help
did any one figure out how this button attaches.. the old button just pealed off cleanly.. no sign of solder.. I’m hoping its some sort of heat activated dry glue.. will let you know if I get any success with this.. wish me luck.. I’m going in..
Will have to dismantle assembly again first… You may be able to see from the power flex cable pictures themselves
i had same problem u had and i tryed solder it but it never worked so instead i ordered the hole thing i bought mine for 24.80 pound but i cant find the original i got it from here a different website. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Genuine-HTC-On…
Hello guys! I’m having a similar problem with a missing power button on my HTC One Mini; I need to power on the phone to access my data (especially contacts saved onto the phone itself!) (debugging wont work as it wasn’t enabled when the power ran out). I’ll be checking up on this page, as I have no clue what to do; I hope you can fix your phones and in turn educate me to repairing mine! However - £50 for the circuitry seems steep, is there any other way of changing it?
cant find any sort of guide as to how im supposed to attach the power button. if anyone could help i’d greatly appreciate as i have alot of important pics on my phone and ive been quoted £195 to repair it which is shocking.
Hey Paul, have you been successful? Could you glue the connectors to the PCB board? I am facing the same problem, and I am not willing to buy the complete board ;-)
I used conductive glue and it worked but fell off shortly…. Then I used conductive tape and it works, but is always depressed.. I just remapped the button once I got the phone back on http://www.amazon.com/Adafruit-Z-Axis-Co…
