    • Using the spudger, move around the casing, carefully separating the rear housing from the camera assembly.

    • Be sure to only apply pressure to the casing panels and not the sensitive internal electronics.

    • Once the rear housing is separated, the settings buttons will be accessible for replacement.

    • Once the flex circuits are removed, the motherboard can be lifted and the device can be accessed for replacement.

    DO NOT “just lift the motherboard"! The motherboard is soldered to a daughterboard for the power button and for the battery compartment. If you do forcibly lift the motherboard you will rip some solder pads off. You need to desolder the motherboard from the daughterboard FIRST before attempting to flip up the motherboard. AFTER desoldering the motherboard there is a singular screw holding in the board in the top left, remove that too!
