Hello, I'm working on someone's 3DS XL. The original problem was that the rear camera didn't work. I replaced the camera which took an insane amount of time and effort, and it was my first time in a while taking off the hinge and rolling the ribbon cables. I put it back together and there's multiple problems. The top screen is really dark (I assume this is a problem with the backlight cable), the bottom screen is discolored, the rear camera STILL doesn't work (the front camera does), and when I close it a little bit, it shuts off. I also need to buy a new hinge cover and LED diffuser. It looks like the cable for backlight, speakers and 3D slider may have ripped (sorry I didn't get a picture), so I assume I just need to replace the speaker component. I've attached some pictures and a video of the DS put together. I can provide more if needed. Love and appreciate you all.

Here's a picture of the speaker ribbon cable, you can see the tiny rip on the left. Right now I'm gonna buy:
Speaker cable
Hinge lock and LED diffuser

The speaker cable comes with a 3D slider so I won't need a new one (the old one is messed up)

I'll keep you all updated
