the process to replace that cable is extremely difficult and the equipment and solvents required are expensive too (above the $800 Range). you must first separate the front glass from the LCD\Digitizer then de-solder the digitizer cable, then separate the digi and lcd. after that remove the epoxy holding the cable to the lcd then de-solder that, when that's done you will need optically clear adhesive to put everything back together.

Stentoumis Christos, could you please post a link on where you got just the cable from? The very first thing I would look at, is this guide. iPhone 5 LCD and Digitizer Replacement Then it depends on what the connector of the cable looks like.

That is an excellent find:-) from what the end looks like, it appears to be strict pressure fitting connector. Any chance you can take a close up picture of your LCD where the cable joins the screen?
