So apparently, this phone was supposed to have a fingerprint scanner. To anyone who has done this repair, I’m sure you’re as confused as me as to why there is a flex cable leading to the “M” logo with nothing attached. My though is that’s where the scanner was going to go, and it just never happened, which also explains why the iconic Motorola M dimple is a separate part, compared to the old Moto X and the Gs and Es, which was part of the back plastic cover.

Where can you get the replacement part? I’m finding it difficult.
