Answer to: phone screen flickering after screen replacmentAlways make sure you disconnect the battery before doing any work on a phone, so you don’t short anything out. # You have a bad part. The backlight can malfunction from time to time on replacement parts. You’ll need to send it back and get another screen. # In the past I’ve heard that static electricity can cause this. I have seen where if you disconnect the screen and let it sit for about 15 minutes, any static built up will discharge and the flicker will go away. I have also seen where charging the phone for an extended amount of time will fix the issue too. Always make sure you disconnect the battery before doing any work on a phone, so you don’t short anything out.

Answer to: I want to order the battery and the lightning connector assembly.The part cost for the battery kit and lightning port kit is actually very competitive. You’d only save a couple dollars buying the battery and lightning port without tools. It’s worth it for the extra set of tools.

Answer to: iPad Air 2 serious touch screen and battery problemsThe charging issue sounds like a battery problem. I had a similar case with an iPad Air. As far as the touch goes, did you inspect the cables themselves? Are any of the pins bent? It’s quite possible that they shorted the touch IC on the board. Any repair shop that leaves out brackets is highly suspect to me. It literally takes 30 seconds to screw that bracket back on.

Answer to: Replaced the screen and it won't stay attachedWhat type of adhesive did your friend use? I use tesa tape whenever I repair phones that don’t come with preinstalled adhesive. Unfortunately, with the dust getting in, the corner won’t go back down unless you use a dab of glass safe super glue. Get a bottle that has a small tip to get in between the glass. Make sure you don’t apply too much. I usually don’t suggest super glue, but the screen on the Pixel is pretty hard to get up without damaging the screen. Ideally, you’d want to remove the screen and reapply tesa tape.

Answer to: Took Screen off first and fear permanent damageDid you look at any guides prior to repair? With your description, it’s hard to tell at what stage you are.

Answer to: Its a new camera, why cant it take pictures? I have done everythingI had the same issue and it was a jammed picture. Try taking out the film. If it’s jammed, the film will be hard to remove. Clear the jammed picture and it should work fine now.
