If you think you may have damaged it could you show us a picture of the offending cable?

@captainsnowball i didn’t physically damaged it but worked right after I installed SSD but after few weeks I can’t seem to log in. It stuck at around 99% (https://m.imgur.com/a/WzB9U). Been like that for more than 15-20mins. (Rebooted several times but it always stuck at 99%).

@mayer could probably do this better than me.

My filevault was on and I think that was the problem. I took out the ssd and reformat and install OSX with bootable USB and that solved the problem.
