I got my new flex cable today but after installing it and booting the shift there is no display. It does boot. The keyboard lights up and the home menu back and search buttons light up. I can even hear the sound that happens when I change the volume but nothing on the screen. I stripped it down a second time to be sure everything was plugged in right but there's nothing out of place that I can find. :crying: Man I hate this. I have loved being a part of this group.

There are some relatively cheap shifts on eBay if you're interested.

Funny you should mention that. Last week at like 2am I bid on what I thought was an Evo Shift but it turned out to be an EVO 4G. (I'm such a dufus) It came today and I guess that's my new phone.
Did you still wanna try and make a Frankenstein Shift with my wife's? Although idk if it will help since the display/digitizer is water damaged and crazy as hell... Maybe with some of the parts you can get it working.:)
