Replacement Screen missing ribbon cable

WTF? I ordered a replacement screen off ebay, and it looks to be OEM, but it's missing a ribbon cable. Anyone know what this cable does and will the phone function normally if I use the replacement? I've hooked it up and the screen powers on, and appears to function normally, but I'm worried that something HAS to be missing because of the lack of connection. Here's the pic:

That is weird, It says Samsung so it must be OEM.
Is it not for the FFC or Proximity sensor ? thats the only thing in the top right corner i can imagine its for.
Unless its from a different variation of the Note, Like the US version or something, I know they differ in a few ways than ours.

Hmm when you purchased it did it mention model number or just galaxy note? Looks to me as a bad screen.

The model number mentioned was N7000 and i9220. It's not the USA version because the button layout is the same.

Have you tested auto brightness, screen response, multitouch recognition... Also, how much? Does this replacement exhibit the color rendering/black crush issue?

Is it possible to fix it by my own, or should I go to a specialist?
Are there already replacement parts for the backcover? What kind of screwdriver do I need if I wanna repair it by my own?
Btw, first broke Nexus 4 ever?
Thanks

Nope.

There currently aren't any replacements for the glass back, not that I have seen at least. Might be a few private shops/stores that are selling them but I highly doubt it, since the phone is new and not as much people still own the phone. I'm really sorry for your "lose" but there isn't much that you can do about it YET.

Alright, I can wait. I'm just happy that my Display is still untouched.
What would you do now? A foil or better a case for protection?

That one is for the glass back. You can do it yourself, you only have to remove the 2 screws.

[Q] Nexus 4 Returns after 15 days?

Hey i have a nexus 4 and have had it for over 3 months now, and i am already on my 5th defective device, i seriously can't take it, i had heard somewhere that if google keep sending me faulty devices then i am entitled to get my money back? I mean i am sick to death now of going back and forth sending phones to google and back, and each and everyone of them have faults? Has ANYONE been able to get a refund past the 15 day return period, and in what circumstance? Thanks!

What's been wrong with them?

Its not me, its the devices Coming from a One X that had many faults that i had to deal with, but seriously i can't take the one's on the nexus 4!

Man so many problems! I was wondering what I can do after 15 days as well. I have a squeaky power button and yesterday the phone had a hard time deciding if it wanted to connect to T-Mobile or not. I'm not sure if there is anything wrong with the phone to cause it from having connection issues or if it was just last night. The squeak should not be enough for me to send it back, but I'm scared that it is actually messed up and that it will break after 15 days. I'm on day 13

Why I'm selling my HTC One.

It has bricked on me a second time.
The first time, I was on ViperOne 3.1 with ElementalX and the phone shut off after a call. The phone was a sad cold aluminium shell. It was so bad I had to send it in to Rogers and have it repaired.
I got the same phone back but with stock 4.3 Sense 5 unrooted but suprisingly with an unlocked bootloader. The repair notes did not say they needed to open it up.
I then rooted and flashed stock GPE 4.4 odexed with Xposed + GravityBox KK and about a month later... same deal. But this time, the front capacitive buttons remain lit.
Im going to wait till it dies, attempt to boot it and then factory reset it ready to be sold, granted I don't have to send it to Rogers again.
I will not buy an HTC product again.
And before you guys quickly post, the phone is well beyond the light trick+power+volume down.

Just curious have you tried android revolution? I have been running his Roms for a long time and they are usually very good and very stable.

why nobody cares

its obviously a software problem, and upon flashing a ROM you take this risk.
But cool story doe.

As long as you didnt rooted it etc it definately is covered by the Warranty
Looks like a Glueing fail wich gets worse when the Phone is in Use due to the Temperature differences

So its Defective from factory not because of bad using or anything like this

I have the same problem, I can't use my warranty because the person on eBay I bought it from had the phones shipped from Hong Kong. Pretty bloody annoying.
