My home button was not working, I decided to open my Ipod touch to replace it with a button of another device.
While opening this, I removed the needed screws to access to the button.
But there was a broken screw I couldn't remove with a screwdriver cause it was round in (probably the guy that built the ipod has hustled the screw, the screw became round and so I couldn't use a screwdriver to remove it).
So I used a cutter around the screw to be able to remove the board (this screw was preventing the board to be removed).
I tried to proceed carefully to not break something.
I did my work and built the ipod again.
Now, I can plug my ipod to an electrical outlet: it seems to recharge as my charger have a small light showing wether it's connected to a device and it charges or not.
If I connect it to the computer, it isn't detected, even if I try to launch it or reboot it (means that's not a screen issue).
To long, direct read: The screen and the battery seems to work, that's not related to the button since plugging the ipod to an electrical outlet should turn it on.
Please help me to find what's wrong (where ?) and help me to fix it.
The only thing that could break something is that I cut around the screw but since I did it carefully, this shouldn't have caused a problem.
I'll try to post pictures when I get a chance.
Please help me, I really need to recover my pictures, my contacts and my meetings.
Greetings
