How are you supposed to replace this part if it's connected to the Touchscreen panel by a flat ribbon cable. The pictures show the touchscreen controller that has been severed/cut by where the flat cable goes 90 degrees towards the touchscreen, you cannot just replace this part by itself as shown in the pictures. WTF????
My Thoughts exactly. Mine has one connector that is easily removed, the smaller end. The large wide end is up under a metal frame. I gave a gentle tug, but apparently its glued or sealed. Now to figure out how to remove it. Guessing a heat gun to the glass is the easiest way? No coming apart from the back/inside!
Which website I can buy battery?
