So my new power flex cable came with a power button bracket already attached. Great. The problem is, I can't get the long cable that curls around the corner off of the old power cable bracket. It doesn't seem to be stuck on, it's more like it's got tiny welds or something.
I also can't get the bracket off the new power flex cable to use the old power bracket (with the long corner cable) instead. Help!

This power button flex is meant to be replaced in its entirety. While there is no specific iPhone SE guide for this repair, you can follow the iPhone 5S guide as it will be very similar.

I already bought it in its entirety. But it came with the brackets already attached... do I now need to buy one without them attached?!
You’re not following what I’m saying.
I have already replaced the full flex assembly. It is in the phone as we speak. It came with the power button bracket attached, but not the long thin cable (grounding cable?) which curves around the corner of the phone.
So now I have installed a brand new flex assembly in the phone, but I can neither:
- remove the grounding cable from the old power button bracket to attach to my new power button bracket
- or remove the new power button bracket from the new flex assembly to allow me to attach the old power button bracket
Both options appear to have small welds or something holding them together.
Do I really now have to buy a completely new power flex assembly again, (minus brackets) to allow me to afix my old power button bracket and grounding cable?
My experience is that it is possible (but difficult) to separate the grounding strap from the old power button bracket, and then attach it to the new one through the screw hole that also holds the power button in.
To remove the grounding strap from the old power button bracket, I very carefully inserted a spudger in the marked location and gently wiggled / worked it in to separate the strap from the bracket - this seems to be the area furthest from the spot welds holding them together. I think it may be possible to damage the flexible cable of the strap if too much force is applied, so wiggling the spudger gently left and right a bit at a time is probably the safest way to go rather than trying to push it straight in.
When replacing the grounding strap, I tucked it behind the rubber camera bumper and tried as much as possible to ensure it is pushed along to the right and down the right side of the phone, so that it did not bulge out too much just beneath the power button bracket - the spot welds holding it to the original bracket kept it close to the bracket before, but with only the screw holding it in on the new bracket there is some potential for it to bulge out towards the microphone and camera flash just below.

OK so I managed to get the remains of the old power switch from the old power flex cable off of the power button bracket. My questions are:
1 - What is the name of the long thin cable ending in the circular connector, attached to the power button bracket on the desk?
2 - What is the better option - trying to remove said cable from the OLD power button bracket (without damaging it - possible?), OR buy a brand new power button flex cable without the power button bracket already attached, and then just stick the power button switch to the old power button bracket

More research done... in this teardown: iPhone SE 분해도
They suggest it might be a grounding cable. Can I buy this on its own and just stick it to the power button bracket on my new power flex cable?
