Detaching Digitizer on a Device Switched on

Greetings,

I have an iPad mini with a faulty logic board that I'm going to replace - it looks like the digitizer connector and / or near resistors / capacitors are damaged.

The problem is I'd like backing up the device before replacing the board and I have to type unlock code in.

Fortunately I can type the unlock code, but after that the screen goes mad - starts sporadically moving, being "touched" everywhere etc (Im aware of how to overcome "mad digitizer" problem and I think its not the case since Home button also doesnt work).

So, Id like doing the following:

Start iTunes and plug the device in
Type unlock code
Detach the digitizer so that it doesnt interfere
Do backup

The question is if detaching digitizer from a working device safe? I know I mustn't do this with the LCD since it kills the fuse, but what about the digitizer?

Thank you!

No effect, if you detach only the touch screen. Don't go near the LCD. Use a plastic tool.

Note that usually crazy touch AND home button not working just mean you have a bad touch screens that needs to be replaced with a new good quality one.

You can make sure by trying on a known good screen.

Thanks. I actually tried another logic board for which the digitizer works perfectly (home button as well),
