How to repair the 8390 backlight

[Guest Magnetic_dud]

After buying my 8390, backlight worked fine only for one week.

ONE WEEK!!!

Now, my phone is one year old, so I dismantled (it's the right word?) it for repair it!

You can't follow the 8380 howto, because they used a different pcb and if someone use a soldering iron will damage it.

You can find the guide clicking on my site (my signature)

home page is only in italian (i'm lazy)

but on the left frame click smartphone

after this is english+italian so maybe you can find without problems :)
