If the ribbon cable in the zif connector was not in correctly, could it cause the top 1/4th inch of the digitizer to not work?

This guide is inaccurate.

You need a T2 torx, not a T3 torx for the Verizon Motorola Droid 2 A955. I got almost to the end, then was frustrated when my T3 wasn't working. Now i have to wait to get a new screwdriver while my phone is in pieces.

This phone is also called the Motorola Milestone 2. On my phone the keyboard screws were T3 as stated. It did not have the rubber cover over the battery connector in step 16. I had to replace the screen so I heated the old one slightly over a gas flame to help remove the adhesive and carefully lifted it off the front panel after step 32. The new screen already had a self adhesive backing so just dropped into place. I'm not sure it was necessary to peel back the LCD ribbon in step 26 as I was not replacing the LCD?
