What should I do from here?

So as I was replacing my screen (yes I do have experience with this) something went wrong. So when I originally purchased the phone it had a 3rd market screen for starters, while I was replacing the screen because it had cracked, the screen which usually requires a bit of force, completely ripped out damaging the little pins on the phone that the LCD pins connect to. Basically what I'm asking is what should I do from here? Is there a way to purchase a new set of pins or am I screwed completely?

Is this a good question?

Robert Ramirez, are you saying that the pins inside the LCD connector on the logic board are "ripped" out?

Sounds as though Robert, you literally ripped open the entire screen and it pulled off the connector on the logic board? If that is the case you'll probably have to find a serious board level repair company to repair it, on the other hand, that my cost about as much as just replacing the logic board.

In the case of the 3rd market screen (i make the assumption IF you recently bought it), legally, that won't hold water in court. Even if you have a warranty/refund policy from/by the seller, when you popped the screen, the warranty was voided.
