Smart Cover Locks iPad Air2 from Back Side
the title says it all,
i have looked at the post on here for the ipad air 1, and that refers to a faulty home button cable causing the issue or a cheap copy. i personally have never come across that on the air 1, and i have done a LOT of them.
the issue i am having is with the air 2 since the screen has been replaced.
customer is dropping it back in to me today to have a look at.
any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Is dit een goede vraag?

I will amend my OP, i forgot to mention that this is since we replaced the screen and digitizer.
it didn't do it prior to the repair.

The little soldered on bit on the air 2 screen is for the sensor for the covers... its next to the home button, look at step 45

thanks for that bit of info, i have been curious as to what that little tab was for. i have been putting Kapton tape over it on the replacement screens i have used.
i am always warey of exposed metal pads from the iPad mini repairs. as it would cause the digitizer to play up and jump around.
so my next question, wouldn't a replacement screen already have this fitted? or is it always a transplant job for the new screen.
seems a bit stupid to have to always transplant the part.

so if that isnt present surely the sleep lock feature from the smart cover just wouldnt work at all.. or am i getting this all wrong.
