I wonder if anyone can help. I recently tried to change the housing of my K750 to a W800 using http://www.se-nse.com 's guide. All seemed to go well till I was putting the new front on!!! The camera flex cable split. Does anyone know the following.

1 Do I def need a new camera flex cable or can they be repaired.

2 Does anyone know where to get one???


Also when I put everything together the power button etc
are not their usual self. i.e. work occasionally. Any advice
on what i should do????

Thanks for the reply.

Since my post my main concern has been the power button and not the flex cable. It was turning on with the new button nor with the old button. I now have one useless k750. I am not sure if the power button is damaged. My button does not look like the volume buttons and i cant press it in when the pcb is out. Does anyone know if this is how it is meant to be or should it have the little black bit sticking out also. I hope i have not broken it off

It could also be a bad contact with the plastic button

Any help greatfully received.

Cheers for the help. It turns out I did break the power button and media button. So I got my soldering iron out and took the buttons from an old T610 and voila the phone is as good as new, well apart from the camera.

I still need a camera flex cable anyone else know where to get one.
