Ribbon Cable Help!

Super Cameraman · Post by **Super Cameraman** » Sat Mar 24, 2007 9:45 am

I have a Toshiba e755 (It's a PocketPC) and I love it very much, but now the ribbon cable ripped, and I have no clue how to fix it. I could get a replacement screen both those go for about 200 dollars on eBay. (The PocketPC's themselves are only 150 on eBay!!! WTF!?)

So does anyone know how I can fix this? Or does anyone have a spare screen they don't need?

Is it one of those stupid copper-tiny ones, or an IDE-styled one? The latter is the only really fixable one, unless you have time and an awesome soldering iron.

Offtopic, why do you put -Super in each message manually, when you have a sig?

It's... a habit. At this other forum I belong to, everyone does it. I used to write "-Super Cameraman" but I got lazy. I would write "Supe's" but that's just annoying.

And yes, the traces and TINY.
