1 Pixel 7a screen not working after screen replacement
Hi everyone,
I've broken my Pixel 7a display and ordered a replacement screen from ifixit. After following the replacement guide, the screen stays black. I know that the device turns on since it vibrates when long pressing the power button. Even after force rebooting via power + volume up the display still stays black.
Now, I'm not sure if I have done something wrong during repair or if the replacement part is defect. I did use a heat gun, but damaged the original display during disassembly further, so while the original screen now also stays black I don't think I can use that to narrow down where the issue is.
Is there anything else I can do to diagnose the issue? Or is the replacement screen simply broken?
EDIT: some pictures of the connector:

Can you post a quality pic of the connector on the board without the cable attached?

I have the same issue. Did you find any solution or got a refund?

@erxlzq I sent the screen in and they said the screen was "mechanically damaged – most likely caused during removal from the plastic tray". No refund unfortunately.
