Where can I find a flex cable with the correct rev.7

Long story short, I replaced a cracked screen and tore my flex cable in the process of fixing it. I ordered a replacement off of ebay, but it's the wrong revision and does not work properly (the screen flickers and acts like you're wiggling the monitor plug on the back of a computer -- colors changing to magenta and such)

Here is what I need (Boost mobile Transform Ultra):
Samsung Transform Ultra M930 Motherboard Flex Cable Ribbon

Here is what I bought off of ebay:
1
OEM Flex Cable Ribbon Connector For Samsung Transform Ultra M930 | eBay

As you can see, there's a additional cable which I'm guessing goes to the front home key row, but my version of the m930 has a separate connector.

#1) Does anyone know where I can find the above ribbon cable?
#2) Does anyone have a broken transform ultra that I could mine for parts (not really willing to pay that much for it, but it's worth a shot)
#3) Anyone have any other bright ideas?
 
FYI, I found a place that sells this cable. It was reasonably priced, but the shipping was crazy. So, I bought 3 of them and plan to sell the other two to help offset the shipping cost.

$20, shipping incl to any US address.

If you want me to install it for you, $60 + you cover shipping the phone to me (78737) and I'll cover shipping back and the cost of the cable as part of the $60.

PM me.
