Installation Notes
Before you start, test the new flex cable with your phone’s motherboard outside the case to confirm everything works. Use an anti-static wrist strap to prevent static damage to sensitive components. When handling the cable, avoid sharp bends beyond 90 degrees – gentle curves are fine, but kinks can damage the internal traces.
