| Here is the coil and IC, providing these are at fault |

| If the coil and IC do not work, try a new screen assembly, and if that does not work, something else shorted in the phone too, and will need better info to help |

| If you did not see any scorched parts or damaged traces and the IC replacement does not work, something else shorted and we'll need to know what it does in greater detail to help |

| If you try this fix and it still does not work, you fried something else on the logicboard and will need more info to troubleshoot |
| It may also be wise to replace the battery in case that shorted too, in case it explodes |
| Chances are the screen is still good, so that should still work |

I would look into that possibility by turning it on and checking the screen for a image with a flashlight, if there is a image, it CAN be fixed, just know it's an absolute PITA to solder these parts, so keep this in mind
If you do not see a image, there is a good chance you wrecked the logicboard in the phone
here is a guide to remove the logicboard to check
