Just randomly restarts every 5 or so minutes. I checked the battery connector and display connector. I did rip the front assembly connector, but I was told it would be fine without it. Just the proximity sensor wouldn’t work
Is this a good question?

Hi Travis,
On the iPhone 14 the proximity flex cable will cause a kernel panic if the sensor on it cannot be read, which is exactly what's happening with your reboots. If you actually time the reboots, you'll find they're happening every three minutes, which is the interval in which the phone checks its sensors.
You can read all about it on the iPhone Kernel Panics wiki page here.
The upshot is your information about the torn proximity flex cable was incorrect; your phone is going to reboot itself every three minutes from now to eternity until you replace that part. Here's what you need.
