Touch screen works only when I press motherboard - Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help &

Hi, I've got a problem with my S3 LTE. I have changed full set in my phone. Connected it to the motherboard and there is a problem with touch sreen. Once it works, then it suddenly stops and doesn't work. I tried to change ROM, I have contacted seller of set, because thought that is faulty. He sent me a new one and it is the same problem. When he got the package with that first one, he wrote to me that it works perfectly with his phone. After few weeks with this problem I saw something new today. At the time, when I'm pressing motherboard in red selected area, touch screen works! It is not about the LCD flex, because when try to push this flex it doesn't help me. It works always when I press here, like on image. What is an issue? What could I do? (sorry for my English, it is not perfect)
Here on this picture it is i9300 but it's the same place as in my i9305.

It seems that it is problem with cold solder joint on motherboard, that is my opinion. When I heated it by hot air in 100° C for a minute touch worked for a few hours. Is it possible to repair? What should I do?

Small cosmetic issue - Sprint Diamond

I've had my Diamond for about a week or so now and after a few days I noticed a relatively minor cosmetic issue. As seen in the pics below, the button pad on the bottom is slightly raised on the right side. The buttons still function as normal. It's not really noticeable when you're holding the device during normal usage, but pretty visible when looking at it from certain angles. Are there any decent disassembly instructions/walkthroughs for the Sprint Diamond floating around? I found the service manual for the euro diamond, but not the CDMA Sprint version. I can probably do it myself, but it always helps to have a backup in case I forget how to re-assemble certain parts. I'm not sure it's something I really want to bother sending the phone back for or anything. I can live with it if I can't fix it myself.

Diamond service manual
Hi if you PM me your email adress I will email you the service manual.

I've got the normal Diamond (squared version) and it also has the this problem since the very first day, but on the left side of the panel (the home button). I checked a friend's diamond and it had exactly the same thing on the same place.
Anybody else?
I somewhat fixed it by just fabricating a small washer (out of a twist tie) that goes under the screw on that side, so when you tighten the screw down it pulls the button pad inward a little. It's not perfect, but much better.

[Q] HTC HD7 Help! Lines on screen :(

Hi. My HTC HD7 has decided to develope some strange lines on the screen. their is no damage or anything but these lines do go away for a second or so when i start a new app, then come right back. they seem to vanish for that second when the tiles are sweeping by.i have posted some screens, any advice would be great.
P.s i have heard that "maybe" some sort of reset could cure this problem. i done the factory through settings but no joy.
Thanks,
Dan.

Are you sure your screen isn't damaged?
it also could be a reason of loose connection in the screen's cable.
try to see if the lines are there when you go to the SPL screen, if they are there, it's definitely a hardware problem.
thanks for the reply. yeah it is there on the spl screen. it seems to emulate the colours from the top of the screen. no damage to it and touch works fine. only time they go is on an all black screen.

The edge under the power button looks pretty rough also.
The One mini M4 suffered from this and has cracks all along the outside plastic band.

Thank you mate I know that problem. I've had like four or five Mini's and they all had the exact same issue and got replaced over and over again until I decided to give it away and upgrade to the bigger sibbling.
I stil have no clue how to repair this frame.. A friend has had the same problem and his powerbutton broke. And without this button the phone is kind of useless..

Looking for spare part. Digitizer connector. (?)

Hey guys!
My phone started having troubles with the touch (how unexpected right?)
Well, the thing is, when I was gonna remove the digitizer connector cable, I tried pulling the black plastic thing backwards instead of flipping it up.
Reason I did this was because I've repaired a few laptops and they had the type of connector were you pull the plastic thing back to release the connector.
The black plastic thing broke off in half so now I can't securely connect the digitizer anymore.
So, question is, can I get a replacement? I took one from another old HTC phone but it's not the correct one. (Lenght wise is correct, but not with the holes for the pins)
At 1:54 it shows the thing I'm talking about.
Youtube link (imbedded link didnt work)
Also attaches a printscreen of it for less hassle.

The black plastic piece that shows is the one I'm talking about!
Better view:
I don't even know the name of these parts so I don't even know what to search for. Please help me out guys.
Probably best way is to buy a new complete connector and remove the black plastic piece and fasten it onto the phones one.
Kind regards,
Tony
EDIT: Note sure if it's the same, but found this on ebay:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/10Pcs-Clamshell-Type-Bottom-Port-6Pin-0-5mm-Pitch-FFC-FPC-Sockets-Connector-/231679255046?hash=item35f128e206:g:ry4AAOSwHnFV7Psd
Is this the same type?
Nobody?

Nexus 6 after installing new digitizer

I have recently installed a new lcd screen and digitizer on my N6.
Yes. the phone operated just fine for about 2 years before I needed to do the maintenance...
It reboots and operates just fine on WIFI.
When I reboot with a valid SIM, I instantly get connected and registered on the network, and it functions correctly for about 30 seconds.. then drops out/off the network.
When I am rather near a tower it functions correctly too.
So, I am wondering if I somehow bent, or am causing the antennas to not reconnect to the main board fully... I have been looking around for where the GSM antenna(s) are. Google searches and forum searches simply reveal the NFC and quick charging loop under the cover.
Does anyone have an image of the mainboard and it's connectors to the antennas? I have found images of the main components on the board, but none of the GSM part.
Any help in locating/trouble shooting this one would be greatly appreciated.
TIA

Thank you for replying....
Oh, btw mine is the XT1103 model.
I followed both of those links prior to posting this.
Yes, the teardown at ifixit was the one I followed. It had a mere mention of the antenna.
The antenna reference diagram doesn't seem to match. I guess it might when the item is inverted.
Here is what I am seeing. Could the wwan antenna actually be the one on the top?
