So I was repairing my phone and changing the screen when the new one didn’t work. Or so I thought. In certain angles, more whens its in sunlight, you can very dimly see the screen. Now the brightness is all the way up but it still has the same problem. I put the old screen back on it and it stopped working the way it did. (the old one was fine just has cracks) Now when I put the connectors together I did feel a slight hotness. Does this mean the connection was short circuited? Like I said, the screen works, but doesn’t. Same problem when I kept putting new screens on it. Any suggestions or answers? Thanks
Chances are that you partially damaged the connector with some sort of liquid. Can you check for any corrosion on the display connector? Worst case scenario is that you partially ripped the display connector.
Or you didn’t disconnect battery before screen replacement and blow up the backlight filter.
I agree with Ron. Based on your description of the problem I suspect you sis not disconnect the battery. This often results in damage to the backlight filter on the logic board and will require micro soldering. That, I’m sorry to say, will be about a $200 repair. http://www.mendonipadrehab.com/price-lis…
