Please help identify the WIFI chip location on Droid Maxx XT1080M
Hello,
Could someone help identify which EMI shield covers the WIFI chip on the Motorola Droid Maxx XT1080M board, as seen in the following picture? I need to fix an intermittent WIFI problem (WIFI cannot be enabled.)
Thank you very much,
Eric

The t4 doesn't fix the camera housing.
I need to see the removal and replacement of the cable to attach the new screen assembly to the board.
