Can't get signal or get very poor signal after removing mod
Hi there.
A few months ago I did the iPhone 4s glowing apple logo mod phone worked fine but I broke the back and had to take the mod out. After I did that (I had to remove the battery at one point because I dropped a screw in the gap) my phone would get little or no signal. I assumed I had damage the signal antenna somehow when I took the battery so I replaced that with an after market one but still no or little signal.
The Phone can only really get signal outside now and even then it can drop out at any point.
Any ideas?
I was considering replacing the motherboard but obviously that's a last resort.
Additional information about the light mod:
You install a small light square behind the glass back (and you replace the back with one that has a clear apple logo)
The device draws power by resting a wire on a small point on the motherboard http://modmyi.com/attachments/forums/har... .
I'm not sure what I've damaged when removing the wire.
Bu iyi bir soru mu?

Did you have to solder to "mod" it, as well as to remove the mod?

oldturkey03 No solder used. Just sticky pads and a bit of blu-tac.

Cameron, I copied your image from Flickr to here. Not everyone has an open network, at all times, to access any of the social media sites:-).

That particular capacitor is part of your forward facing camera and should not interfere with your antenna. You can of course check it with a proper capacitance meter, it is a 4.7UF 6.3V cap. I am more concerned about the 15V-17V power connection coming of the ribbon cable :) Right now this may all be a red herring, I am sure you already checked, but make sure that your "blue inductor is still intact. The symptoms you are describing sound a lot like it.
