    • I had to remove the micro sd to see it, also if i described the same antenna in 6th step whitout realizing. It seems to have only 1 connection to the board and seems to be 1 thin copper plate all united. Unfortunately i ripped the antenna in the 2nd photo ! Now i need to replace the antenna with another.

    • The problem is that this antenna have 2 connections while the previous had only 1 ! I don't know what are these connections. Maybe one connects simply to ground, but i don't know. I think it's a SMA connector. I expect if i peel the cable to get 2 cables.

    • The cable is about 2cm long and wide 2mm , i not measured it but works very well. I don'k know even if it touches the contact or is only near it.

    • If i connect another piece of wire on the antenna the range of the bluetooth remain practically the same. Maybe to increase further the range, i need a determinate-lenght wire , for example with a online calculator the lenght of the ideal antenna results a quarter of wave of 2,450 ghz but i don't know how much is important
