Hi


whilst fixing the blank screen problem I kind of broke the on off switch internally.


under the on off button is a small copper dot that goes up and down when pressing the actual button. this copper dot has fallen off so now when you press the on off button, nothing happens (obviously!)


The screen is fixed but I cant switch it on. any ideas? do I need to attach a copper point under the button so it makes contact and comes on or something?


what's the best/easiest way to get it to come on? is there something I can buy, what's it called? hope it makes sense the way I described it


Thanks


Edit---Just done some googling, I need a power and volume button ribbon flex cable. I need one for a Samsung galaxy note 10.1 2014 model p605. cant seem to find one on ebay...
