thank you for your advice.
Do you have any idea how i could repair the end of the cable? The conducting paths where glued somehow to the display. After I took them off, the adhesive/glue property was gone. Do you know how to repair the glue/adhesive?
thanks a lot

It's a heat-seal film connector (although the exact wording varies). The glue is hot melt glue and the traces are some some sort of carbon-based thermosetting resin.

You could try and iron it back on, but I wouldn't rate your chances of a successful outcome.
