1 A2681 Lid Angle sensor issue resolved!
I bought multiple LAS's and 2x Nerd tools, only for nothing to work. The issue lies in the right hinge. There's a magnet in it that tells the sensor when to activate, but if the screen does not have the proper magnetism, then it won't work.
Pull the old hinge from the broken screen and swap it over. It's pressed in, and takes a little effort to remove it, by once swapped over, the LAS will work as it should with the original LAS. Make sure to fully open both lids (old and new), then swap the hinge over to maintain the same position that it had.

Hate to tell you the magnet can be rotated without pulling the hinge out.

Is the Sensor not Serial Encrypted to only work with the Original Screen. I have a NT1 and it cannot re-calibrate the Original Sensor. I will purchase an aftermarket LAS and see if I can re-calibrate it with the NT1. Fingers Crossed.

@bargainhunt3r - the sensor is not tied to the display electrically. NerdTool-1 reprograms the sensors NVRAM which is a where the sensors position with the displays magnets magnetic flux detected by the ring of Hall sensors it has within it. I'm not sure how many times you can recalibrate the sensor so don't over do it.
Parts serialization is still present between the display and the logic board.
