Where to source a Pixel volume/ Power flex cable. - Google Pixel Questions & Answers

Hey there, if anybody could point me in the direction of a replacement Power/ Volume flex cable it would be greatly appreciated. I had seen them being sold 2-3 weeks back, yet now no amount of searching is turning one up. I need to replace the flex cable on my Pixel Xl due to water damage. If anybody happens to know if the part is cross compatible between the Pixel and the XL varient I would really like to know also.
Thanks in advance,
Hugh

No problem! I've been repairing phones for many years now and I know how annoying it is when you can't find the components you need.
Good luck!

I know that this is an old thread, but
does anyone know where I can purchase the "Google Pixel XL (G-2PW2200) Power flex + Volume flex" cable also?
there are the sites that I found that would sell it, IF it was in stock. I would be extremely grateful if I could find this part.

Hi
Was it difficult to change? I've had a look at the service manual and it doesn't look too difficult?
It's not very difficult, however if you've never taken apart a mobile you might be in over your head. It's especially weird since it is a slider.
I have already tried taking mine apart just so I could see how it all goes... Its pretty simple really... Just waiting for my housing now

Spare Parts?
Question here,
My wife's Vox died, (not reading SIM and screen keeps going black), Is it worth trying to fix or should I just part it out? Having it repaired is almost as much as a new one.
Does anyone know where I can get another one at a fairly cheap price?
If anyone is interested in parts PM me.

im having the same problem anyone have a solution?
The flex cable isn't seated properly? Make sure it clicks in and does not come out when you slide the QWERTY out.

i've taken the phone apart 3-4 times, double and triple checking all the connections. i dont know it its the lcd or just the flex cable.
I had the same problem. But I think h4waii is right. When I redid the thing it worked. And, by the way I was told by HTC service people in Delhi that the LCD would have to be replaced for the problem.
thats not the answer i was looking for but oh well. thanks for all the replies!! anyone know where i can find a cheap lcd??

Nexus One Logic Board

Hi All
Does anyone know where i can get nexus one parts. I am looking for the logic board where the camera is as i broke my volume cable because i opened it to clean the dust under the glass.
I do not mind buying a broken nexus one so that i can take the logic board to replace my one because the volume key not working really annoys me.
Any help is really appreciated and thanks all in advance

why did you do that? did you root your phone?
Yes, it was rooted and am all the way in UK and cannot deal with taking it back to them and them putting hold on my account, that's just too long for me.
I know in a couple of months there will be parts for it, so in the mean time am back to my HTC Magic with no root as i mistakenly installed the new 3.03 sense and no one has managed to root that build but. If you know any how i can get it rooted do let me know as i do not mind using it till parts come out for the N1.
What kind of expensive phone like the Nexus gets dust under it man. Google and HTC needs to fix up.

Spare parts inside....

Hello everyone, I considered putting this in the marketplace but it makes 100% more sense to have it here.
I'm selling my faulty nexus one for spare parts so if anyone needs a part of the phone (except the PCB that the microusb sits on)
give me a PM and we can come to some sort of arrangement, obviously undercutting ebay prices lol.
for example... lcd replacement, digitizer or camera, speaker, volume buttons etc.
I've got a weird one to ask about....
What about the bottom soft touch cover (that goes over the usb port)?
do you have the little black plastic piece that covers the bottom pcb? its got the little vibrator connected to it.
Mine is like slowing down and isnt as powerful and i think its the reason for my haptic feedback dying

Hi Magacamz! I wonder if you still have your LCD Replacement? For how much are you expecting to sell it? Would you send it using USPS International? If positive, we can arrange using Paypal or something similar...
Tnks!

It is literally the piece that goes over the USB port and gold power connectors on the bottom of the phone. It's the same material as the battery cover.

FPC Connector problem

I broke the white lever which connects to the digitizer and I also broke the white lever which connects to the volume button. The flex cables are ALL the way IN; I sellotaped them in case they fall out of it's place. However the volume button works, but my digitizer doesn't respond does it mean the digitizer doesn't work or the digitizer needs that white hatch?
Update: I've checked the forums for the ipad who have the same fcp connector and there solution is to use Mylar tape OR LOW Static Kapton Tape
Time to buy one of these....
click the link.
Should be much easier than trying to replace that port alone & its < $20.00
Don't bother trying anything else

Hi, I dont have the 4g model of the htc sensation could you link me the normal version. All I could find on that site was the XL, XE, 4G variations. Would this work? http://www.parts4repair.com/htc-sensation-motherboard-flex-cable/

This is the only one I see available. Does yours look like this? For 20.00 its not that expensive to try. Perhaps they're all the same part

No display on nexus 5 even after screen change

Recently, I purchased a Nexus 5 from a friend. The screen was completely shattered and nothing would appear on the display, but my computer was able to recognize the device. This morning I replaced the screen with a new one, however, there is still nothing appearing on the display even though the computer recognizes it and there is still life left inside of it.
Is there anything I am missing? I rechecked that everything is plugged in correctly several times and still nothing. I was thinking of replacing the flex cable, but I am low on funds so I don't want to waste money if its not going to work.
Attached, are photo's of the device.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
did you replace just the screen or the whole Assembly with the lcd and digitzer?

Yes, the entire assembly has been replaced which includes the LCD and digitizer.
Once again, I'm thinking its the flex cable as bad flex cables I've had with other phones have affected the functionality of the device.

It was not.
In a nutshell, my original question was basically 'could there be another problem with the Nexus 5 that I am unaware of?' which was not answered.
The second poster simply asked me if I replaced the LCD and digitizer assembly in its entirety.
The third poster is me posting my suspicious about which piece of hardware is causing the trouble.

Oh sorry you said flex cable. I was on my app. My apologies. Honestly it could be the flex cable. I replaced the screen in my Droid 3 and it didn't work because the flex cable was damaged.
Based on your photos it looks like what you replaced should have bean sufficient but of course with electrical components who knows... I wouldn't rule out a dead replacement display either. I'm in the middle of a similar situation, returning my replacement display today and trying another.

Could be a number of things with that physical damage, not just the screen

So you were able to get a display after you changed the flex cable?
The odd thing though is that I'm still able to charge the phone...the flex cable also holds the usb port.
Anyway, I've ordered a new one so we'll see what happens.
If anyone was wondering the screen still does not work with the new flex cable. I'm assuming its a motherboard issue and am just going to sell it on eBay.
Before than, any other suggestions would be appreciated.

I bought it from him for a very cheap price ($30US). Even with it broken, I can still get more for it by selling it on eBay than I can by getting my money back.
Try to make preassure on the wide connector on the motherboard. If display backlights or displays temporarily it's micro distached pins between connector and motherboard. Heat Air is the easy solution! In my case I used hot air heatgun 350°C and 10sec on row near edge of the board. The solder melts and at that time PUT slight PREASSURE down to the connector for few seconds! It makes the legs got proper contact to the pads on the board. Solves problems with Mic and Loudspeaker too becouse it relay on this wide connector.
Good luck Tomáš
