Coaxial cable damaged
#1
Hello all,

unfortunately I have managed to damage the coaxial cable: https://pine64.com/product/pinephone-coa...46c16e2e66 while swapping the mainboard. It was quite unfortunate, it seems it wasn't properly at its place and while screwing the screws back, one of it nearly cut it to half completely.


I did test everything after the mainboard swap and the only think which is not working now is the mobile(carrier) signal (it's either very poor or not at all), can that be caused by damaged coaxial cable? What is this coaxial cable used for? From the description in the store it's not quite clear to me.

I would have to test but I think the WiFi signal strength dropped as well (but works at least) can it be related as well?

I will order it from the pinestore, but I'm quite dissapointed that I will have to wait (probably long) now.

Does anybody have spare coaxial cable in EU? if yes PM me if it can be sent to me (I'd pay the price in the store and the post costs).

Or can I try to solder it, would that be safe or not woth it?

cheers
