[Q] Camera flex cable (tiny) extension - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi
I bought and disassembled a nexus 7 recently for a design project I am developing.
I was hoping to play around with the position of the front camera (an inch or so). I knew the flex cable was short but I thought finding an extension cable would be easy.
Turns out it isn't.
I wanted to ask if anyone here knows if there are extensions cables available for the camera connector used in nexus 7?
I found MANY "test cables" for iPhones but unfortunately they use a different connector, and other suggestions I find online all involve the use of microscopic soldering skills (which I don't posses)
Any input would be appreciated
Here's a photo of the connector

Well, when it is burned like you said, then it will by very hard to get a new transistor for it. So maybe you could search on the second hand market for a HTC HD2 with a broken screen and change that part on the photo.

[Q] Touchstone Modification - Galaxy Relay

I just got a Galaxy Relay 4G to replace my Pre 3 soon. I got so used to Touchstone charging so I'm planning to carry it over to the new phone, like some others have done:
http://forums.androidcentral.com/spr...stone-mod.html
Problem is there aren't any resistors around the Micro USB port where usually most mods hitch the wire into, and I suck at soldering something that tiny. Anyone got any tips on how I can solder it? The negative wire goes to the shell of the socket and positive wire to the 5V line on the port. For starters I know I need a new soldering iron, the 60W one I have is way overpowered.

I know they are caused by the clips on the micro usb cables ..
are they
1) Caused a design flaw by LG (causing such a scratch)
2) LG molded designed and molded the plastic in such a way
Attached is also another pic of my phone

Nexus 7 touch unresponsive

I have been using this device for more than 5 yrs. Recently screen rotation was not working so I tried to repair it by myself after watching some videos and forums. It was an easy process but due to my curiosity I dug into the hardware some more. During the process I mistakenly broke a piece from ZIF connector which was connected to the display. I don't know whether this could do anything to the touch. Now the touch becomes unresponsive. I am also thinking that the digitiser could be faulty but not ready to invest in a new one without knowing the real reason. Why this connector is for. Could this be the culprit? If so do I need to change the daughterboard? You can see the picture

Request: hidef photo of screen connector on mobo (New Screen troubleshooting)

Hello and thanks in advance for any help.
I am happily running PH-1 with stock system, no mods of any kind as my daily, and now on my 3rd replacement screen.
This time around, one of the surface mount components came off (glue job gone bad, long story) and I want to replace it, myself, which I am able to do though I need to I.D. the component.
Attached pic of my connector, and showing which component that I'm needing to ID.
My screen works though I've no touch-response and I'm thinking it must have somethin to do with the missing part of the circuit.
Yes I've looked at the possibility of resetting and forcing a recalibrate etc... I didn't have to reset with my previous 2 replacements. So first I'd like to take care of this item just to put it aside, hoping that it's the problem.
Again thanks for any help, I've searched for quite some time and have not found schematics nor a hi-def enough image of that area.
