hostar 17 Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 (edited) Hello, I have dropped my Pro1, which caused ugly dent in bottom cover. Even though screen itself survived scratchless, it stopped working. So I got into disassembly expecting something visibly broken inside, but I could not find anything. The only damage were scratches caused by me trying to get inside the phone 😀. I knew the software was still working, because I could hear morning alarm and all kind of notification noises. Than I noticed the screen replacement on AliExpress had the connector on the side, so this was the final solution: I just disconnected and reconnected the side connector of the screen and magically it started working again - see the photo in attachment. It took me several hours so maybe this will help someone else not to repeat my mistakes. Edited May 22, 2021 by hostar 3 7 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That is the only connector which directly goes to the display, I think it started to loose maybe at the outer edge which is less visible. I am glad it survived this drop with minor damages and the screen works well. Anyway, the easy disassembly process helped a lot, it would not be easily possible on a regular phone... 4 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
