Screw hole pry damage

You do not need the metal brackets on the phone to function. You do need the FL2024 to be working, I beleive this is the backlight filter, if this does not work you wont have a backlight. Get a multimeter on both sides and check for continuity, if not then this needs replacing.

That top pic with missing screw anchor is a earth pad at the top layer, iPhone circuit board are multi layered. under the round copper earth there is 1 track. If this is broken this could be causing problems. With long screw damage a long screw is screwed into the hole, screws down too far into the board, then drills its way through the board untill the pad falls off. This type of damage can be very very hard to fix by a pro if not impossible to fix.

The other anchor pads need removing, the black stuff carefully removed from the surface under a microscope to see whats happened under them and see if ant tracks have been snapped. These are however harder to fix if broken as 1 anchor has 3 tracks under it, the other has 9 tracks all within about 1mm width.
