Hi all! I'm trying to revive my old phone by replacing the bloated and dead battery and found out about this issue. I know I can still buy a motherflex cable for mate 10 but the pins on the motherboard itself are broken.
Is it still repairable? Here are some photos
Es esta una buena pregunta?

Hi Luke,
It is possible to replace that connector on the motherboard, but it does require some fine skills in soldering, or microsoldering as it's being called nowadays. Generally it's done with hot air rather than a soldering iron, although once it's off you would generally clean and tin the pads with a fine tip soldering iron.
The part itself is cheap and was surprisingly easy to find; here's an example from AliExpress.

I think this is the right one, but it's hard to count the exact number of pins from your photo; you can probably do a better job with a magnifying glass. There are quite a few that come up if you search for "Huawei Mate 10 FPC connector", so pick the one with the right number of pins.
If the soldering job is out of your comfort zone (like it is mine), you can probably get a local repair shop to do the job fairly cheaply; for them, with the right tools and experience, it should be fairly simple.

Thanks! Will definitely find a local repair shop since I'm not comfortable doing the microsoldering by myself.

Yes, new connector and ribbon. Hot air station and soldering skills. Not a massive job. If you don’t feel up to it yourself try and find a good repair shop. Some pc repairs will be able to solder a new one on for you too if you have the part.
