Hey guys,

I had recently taken my 8525 / hermes apart to fix the white screen problem.

As I had fixed the problem, the magnet that triggers landscape mode, had came unglued from wherever it was.

I had contacted HTC and tech support, but they are unable to tell me where this small rectangular magnet goes.

Does anyone have a clue or a parts repair Hermes / 8525 that they can help me with.

I need to get this fixed.

I appreciate anyones help.

The problem occurs when the ribbon cable becomes loose.
All you have to do is take the unit apart and reseat the cable.

I've taken mine apart soo many times lately, its and easy process if it happens again.
