So is the substrate a layer of the screen? So the replacement screen could be damaged?
And what does the flex cable connect to? Is that the cable that goes from the screen into the board?
Many thanks
Tom
That's the TFT substrate, which, yeah, is roughly one of the lowest layers of the screen, and happens to be a thin glass pane on most eInk screens.

And the flex cable I'm talking about is indeed the screen's ;o).
