Is my screen replacement faulty? - OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers

Hi,
I shattered my screen on my OnePlus 6 and decided to buy an screen replacement. I should also add that I made sure to buy an "OEM AMOLED" screen, which is quite expensive, but I don't know if I really received an "OEM" replacement. The problem is that the screen ribbon cable seems to be to long But it might work even though...
Here is an image taken from an screen replacement video where you can see the ribbon:

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
And it looks like my phone also uses such a cable:
But the replacement I received has a long ribbon cable (which skips the "OP6 main flex cable" which is like an extension cable from the daughter board to the main board):
Is the replacement genuine and can I use it? It seems like it ends up at the screen connector on the main board...
Or should I contact the company?
Many thanks,

anyone???????
I have an old Ipaq that does the same thing. My guess when that happened to me is that the digitizer is going bad. If your unit is under warranty then send it off!
If not there are a few options:
1. Nothing. Might be the best option if you are not comfortable with taking your unit apart and putting it back together with no left over parts.
2. Buy a new digitizer (It can be very hard to replace just the digitizer though)
3. Buy a whole new screen and digitizer and put it in
4. Buy a new phone!
Best of luck bud!

Forgot to remove "stickers" from digitizer

I replaced the digitizer on my sensation 4G a while ago and the entire screen stopped working after like a month. It was also overheating which makes me think it might be a software issue, but I have no way of knowing. So anyway, I was about to take apart the entire thing to try and find the problem and I noticed something while watching a tear-down video. Before the guy in the video put the digitizer in, he removed the sticker things from the digitizer, which you can see in the image below (the yellowish one with blue-green writing). I didn't take them off, and when I did there was a sticky residue left behind. Could this have caused the screen to stop working after a month? If yes, is there a way to get it to work again without getting another digitizer (and LCD probably)?

[Q] What the heck IS this accessory?!

Hey, everyone!
We've recently got a review tablet through a third party PR firm, and I'm thinking that I might like to reproduce the setup, but with a better tablet of my own, and one that I can work with. This thing is a pretty cheap Chinese knockoff tablet. The one thing that I like about it, ist hat it's got a gigantic docking base, and a charger that requires no effort or care on the customer's part when slotting it in. It seems like a much more durable option than asking them to line up a little tiny microusb.
As far as I can tell, the chunky charger bit on the back is just plugged into the charging port of the tab itself, then glued on. Then it just slots nicely into the big old dock. I'd like to do that with quite a few of these scattered around the place to encourage reviews.
Does anyone know what that type of charging port embigg-ifyer is called so that I can shop for them?
Thank you so much!!

Is this "new" battery used?

Just bought this off Amazon (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00DRODFNK/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1) and I'm pretty sure it's used. For those of you who have replaced your battery, is there any chance this is new and I'm crazy before I return?

Thanks.
*Note*
I bought from the US supplier, Everyday Source.
I need some help finding a legitimate battery also
That scrape down the middle combined with wrinkles definitely looks like it was originally glued in, and someone shoved a spudger or something underneath to pry it out.
A new OEM battery should cost about $20USD. As a general rule, if the price seems too good to be true, then it usually is. The description in the link says nothing about the battery being new either.
That's what I thought. The battery is going back. BTW, it's listed in the inventory field as new from the place I ordered.

Enable Lg V50 Second Screen with V500VM phone

I apologize if this has already been addressed, I have searched and have not found this anywhere or the information I am looking for.
I purchased a phone of ebay called a LG V50 model V500VM also called Verizon. This phone has the 3 pogo pins on the back of it, which I
believe the "official" Verizon phone did not have. I have updated the verizon software via OTA and had no issues.
I picked up a second screen case with 3 pogo pins as well hoping they would somehow function together, which they are not.
What can I do to make them work together?
Thanks for any help or suggestions, I would like to make this work somehow.
I have also attached a picture of the case and phone backs below.
