Hello, im kurt :) i hope this forum is open to internal repairs and not just softwear.. anyways.. i smashed my ipad screen and purchased a new digitize screen. while replacing the screen i broke the wifi antenna, in order to remove the antenna i had to temporarily remove the ipad speaker cable from its socket on the logic board (hope your still with me on this). However istead of removing it from its socket the socket was pulled off from the logic board :(. Is it possible to re- attach this?

Was the speaker cable socket soldered to the logic board? If so, you may have damaged it beyond repair. Try calling a repair shop to ask if replacing the speaker cable socket is possible.

Yes, the four teeth connectors are still attached to the socket, however one of the solder pads have came up;
