Chosen Solution

Hi During a screen replacement, the “male” part of this blue cable (i think it’s the antenna) did break off the mainboard (slot 2) and is is now “stuck” inside the cable. How can I replace the “male” part on the mainboard? Do I have to solder? Because I’m not that experienced in solder tiny things so I’m kind of afraid to break even more. The local smartphone doctor would charge me $70 for a repair - is that a fair price or way too much? Kind Regards Cedric

You can do a right repair: Find the broken piece and solder it back, or Order a new piece and solder it back, or take the piece from a donor board and solder it back. You can do a quick repair: Remove the head from the cable, solder the outside cable to ground and the internal cable to the signal pad. Is a five minutes task, but you need to have the equipment and the knowledge to complete the task. From $30 to $50 I think it’s OK
