iPad Mini 4, A1538. The device suffered a broken LCD, but intact glass panel. I disassembled, transferred the necessary components to the new panel, and tested. Home button/touch IC was recognized, digitizer worked great, as did the LCD. Shut it down, disconnected battery & panel ribbons. I applied my adhesive, reattached the ribbons and battery, screwed the plate down and turned it on. Device turned on normally, I begin seating the display into the frame and the panel goes black. Battery was previously well charged. [br]
I disassemble, remove my fresh adhesive, and discover this mess beside the battery connection. [br]
I’m not sure how or why this/these components failed, or what they are. [br]
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. [br]
