How I can fix it.

I have a OnePlus Nord 2 DN2103 with a broken screen. ifixit and the other main sites do not sell a replacement screen because it is too old.

When i look on Amazon or Ebay i have no idea how to figure out what is legit and what is not legit. The prices vary significatly and I dont want to get ripped off.

I have used ifixit to replace and iphone screen before, so have all the tools and found it simple enough that i thought i could do the same with this oneplus nord.

Does anyone have suggestions for what to look for, or maybe a site that could source one for me? Or would it be the case that nothing will be worth it, and I should just give up on this idea?

Any advice or tips are welcome :D

I'm trying to get to know what this component is (resistor, capacitor, or something else?), and what value it has (e.g., resistance [Ohm], or capacitance [F]).

At first I was quite sure that it is a capacitor because of it's coloring, and thought it read around 0.8 pF, but now I am doubting, and the 0.8 pF reading is achievable without the component, just by bringing both lead ends closer together on parallel capacitance measurement mode on 100kHz.

Maybe you can help me out, as I have no idea how to measure it.

The readings are quite all over the place.

This video is me trying to measure it on capacitance mode on a DER EE DE-5000:

All help is very much appreciated!

Photos of location of the board it came from:

A OnePlus 7 pro phone mainboard, in the right bottom corner of a UFS chip.

I took two pictures, in the second picture you can see me pointing at the location with a set of tweezers.

If you have any idea how to determine what this component is and what it's value is I would be extremely thankful! 🙏

Any suggestions how I can measure this component? I bought Probe Master 8152 spring loaded micro-tip test leads, but those do not seem to work with the EE DER DE-5000.

I just got the last (fourth) phone last week. I tried it and worked fine. Then disassembled it, still worked perfectly fine. Then disassembling the metal cover shield. Then testing it again, and still works fine.

Then carefully removing the component with Kapton tape over the other components, no clean flux and a hot air desoldering station to get the 0201 component off the phone.

The phone doesn't work without this component.

I looked up YouTube videos of mainboard schematics of the OnePlus 7 pro and found that it most probably is involved as a power-on line. As I tested with the second and third phone I got, I did exactly the same as described above and they wouldn't turn on without this component.

Does this mean that it is likely not a decoupling capacitor?

Some more info and pictures of it I was able to find via Borneo Schematics:

I'm struggling figuring out what component is on the right bottom of the top chip, it's greyish, but I am not able to measure it. https://imgur.com/a/oNTbvQO Perhaps you know? Thank you so much in advance!

I've added more pictures of the component I am trying to figure out over here: https://imgur.com/a/DUlGWZJ

Because it is grey-ish, is it a capacitor, or is it maybe a ferrite bead?

From watching teardowns, I have no idea why only one part of the screen would be dead. I thought it might be an issue with the optical fingerprint scanner, so I tried taking that out, but still the same problem. Any idea what I might be able to do to fix this?

EDIT: forgot to mention, I’m also getting “ghost touches” in around the middle of the screen, between the working half and non-working half. Happens mostly on the left side of the screen. Don’t know if that helps to figure out what’s wrong/broken.

My work requires me to have a non-camera phone

So I was wondering, is it possible to remove the rear and front camera on this phone and still have a functional smartphone ?

if so, can you tell me how to do it ? or point me to an alternative idea if you have one

Regards,
