Recently I bought a 3ds on ebay, that was broekn, from the pictures it looked like it was just the hinge, so I went ahead and got it, and for $30, it wasn't too much of a loss. Well It gets here and There are so many broken ribbons idk what to do. so I pulled the good parts aside which happened to be the motherboard, what I think is the infarred sensor, the analog stick, buttons, lower screen, and wireless card. Not much I could do. so I put the bad parts in a bin and looked around and purchased another which the motherboard was bad, I thought it'd be an easy swap. However, when I looked closer at the upper screen ribbon cable slot, I noticed the white clip was broken, and to fix it the person had very badly superglued the ribbon cable, and was appearantly axious and put it back together, only to have the cable slip and get superglued out side of the slot. I was able to get the ribbon cable off, but there is still a massive pile of super glue preventing me from inserting the upper screen into the motherboard. I inspected the bad motherboard and there is a little gold dot labled TP9 which is fried, and there was some pink stuff around splattered in a few places, but only TP9 looked affected. This led me to my two questions. 1. is it possible to repair the ribbon cable slot? 2. If not is there a way to repair the TP9 (unknown what it is called)? (first link is super glue pile, and second is the TP9) http://gyazo.com/9f1b0a018cabebf83e4940f740fb4f8ehttp://gyazo.com/007bbd15b61e482f6e94c58f6b419ddf
any help appreciated. I realize this isn't the best spot to post it, but I couldn't find a better forum out there.
