Will the phone still work if I damaged 1 or 2 grounding pads?
While removing the old waterproof seal (during a screen replacement) I managed to rip 1 grounding pad completely off and partially tore another one of the 5 grounding pads on the bottom right. How will this affect my phone and can I buy this part somewhere?
Cette question est-elle utile ?
Hi Robert,
I suspect the reason you haven't gotten a response to your question is that we're not clear exactly what part it is you're referring to. It sounds like you may be talking about the grounding fingers on what iFixit refers to as the Bottom Bracket Flex Cable. If that was the case, you can buy the part and replace it fairly easily.
Otherwise, can you post a photo of the damaged parts so the rest of us can get a look at what you're seeing?
