hello, my bad is that i bought this iPhone 5 thinking it was the front panel problem. i have no history or whatsoever of this iPhone 5 only that it has a dark screen issue. every other thing work fine, outside of the backlight issue at hand. looking at the screen in the sun or with a flash light you will see the images inside the screen. i have carried out a careful diagnoses on the logic board and found some missing components i don’t know their names though. but i named them no:1 and no:2 look at the image and examined it carefully from no:1 it look like something pulled from the board i might be wrong though. the lines from one end look like something pulled out with force and nothing there to sodder to the board but on the other end there is a lining. from no:2 clearly the little ic or whatever its called that’s suppose to be there is messing. if i bought a good sodding iron and jump/bridge only no:2 will the backlight come up? here is a direct link to of the image https://s26.postimg.org/xcs7byy7t/iphone… opening the board really shows that the phone has been worked before and really rough. but among all it works and can call & received calls. please help me out, just say something and don’t work away. thanks
Yes, I beleive these will affect the backlight No 1: FL24 = 240 OHM 0.2A-0.8 (0201-1) No 2: C17 = 56PF, 5%, 16V (01005) All are on the backlight line in some form. I would suggest replacing them over bridging them and if you are inexperienced, I highly recommend checking out @jessabethany. EDITED TO ADD IMAGE:
