dropped - wake/sleep button and proximity sensor does not work
Hi,
I recently dropped my phone, nothing major, just a little bump. Had the bumper on, and no damage.
However, now the sleep/wake button does not work, and also the proximity sensor does not work. (i.e. when i talk on the phone, the screen stays on when its against my face)
Looking at the guide that you have to take the phone apart, I noticed that the power button and prox sensor is on the same connection. So i was thinking, could it be an simple as a loose connection caused by the bump ? would this really be possible, as the phone looks tightly packed.
Other than that, would anyone have ideas as to what the fix may involve ? replacing that ribbon cable is far beyond what I could imagine doing, as it looks like most the phone has to be taken apart, so i hope that is not the solution.
Thanls
Is this a good question?
