**JDM_SOHC** · #1 (**permalink**) 07-26-2011, 04:32 PM

So on the housing I'm about to purchase it says "please make sure that pin connections on current phone are correct with housing replacement" but how do I know what pin layout my phone has..?? Thanks...

What part replacing on your phone ? The middle and back section ?

ummm the only thing you have to worry about having the correct pins/ribbon is the screen, the housings black/white are all interchangeable. Do you have a link for what you are going to buy?

There is no need to mess with the ribbon cables if you are changing just the middle / back housing. With a little bit of care you can get it changed in maybe 5-10 minutes.

OP - If you need some help I sent you a PM with my number and some other thoughts.
