Is it possible to fix the backlight without replacing the screen?
テキスト:
My girlfriends 5X finally bootlooped yesterday. It just died in her arms, not even bIinking with the notifcation light when trying to power it on. started googling, and found a few tutorials of how to resolder the SOC etc. This is my second time going into a phone, first time was a successfull screen swap of a Huawei P9.
After cooking the motherboard and letting it cool down, I installed it into the phone. It seemed like a success at first, showing the google logo and almost booting into the homescreen.
But suddenly, the screen went black. And it is still black.
I took it apart, waited a while and cooked it again, a few minutes longer this time. Reassembled it, tried to start it, still no screen.
I did notice that the screen was working though, it took pictures, played sounds and reacted to touch. I shined a flashlight on the screen, an d saw that I could see the content faintly, so the backlight wasnt working.
TLDR: Is it possible to fix a non-working backlight without replacing the whole display? The display was already shattered a bit, but we had no issues with backlight beflore. Since it already bootlooped once, I dont think its worth buying a replacement screen in case it just bootloops again.
