Chosen Solution
I have broken off the square 5 wire connector next to the home button ribbon cable, and all the soldered leads are no longer attached. How to repair? I have attached two pictures from the guide. I mistook the connector as the picture was a little too small to see, only after “prying up the flap” did I discover I pried up the soldered connector. Is this repairable or have I junked my new iPad 4th ten pride and joy? Here are pictures where the connector is shown as right next to the cable connector…
The connector can be replaced but the leads may need to be re-routed. It is a difficult repair, you could ruin it further if not done carefully
