Ok, so I broke the plastic back on my white iPhone 3G. I ordered a new one on ChinaOnTrade.com. I took apart my iPhone to start the process. Everything was perfect until the ribbon cable number three from the top glass assembly, that appears to go to the speaker on the front, broke. Now, I cannot hear when I use the phone. However, I can turn speaker phone on and use it just fine. So, does anyone know where I could get a replacement cable number 3 that goes to the speaker assembly area? ALSO, does anyone know what else that cable goes to? It appears to have some small electronics right next to the earpiece speaker.

Unfortunately, that is one of the few parts NOT available on ChinaOnTrade.com. Thanks for any and all assistance. Also, check out the low low prices on that site (I am not affiliated with them just a happy customer). There stuff is a fraction of the price that iFixIt.com charges.

Thanks...
