Nikon Coolpix S800c Screen with Frame

Schritt 1

Remove all 4 screws from the bottom face of the camera using a Phillips #00 head screwdriver (found in iFixit tool kit).

Schritt 2

Using a plastic tool, pry open the back panel of the camera. Be careful not to apply too much force and damage the camera.

This doesn’t work!!! I have two S800C cameras, and #1 there are FIVE SCREWS instead of four; one is on the lens side of the case. But once those five screws are out, the LCD will still not separate from the main body. Something in the vicinity of the shutter button is holding the two together. Both cameras are the same in that respect, and because I fear damaging *both* the body and the screen if I try to force it, I’m stuck tight wishing someone could clue me in as to what perhaps simple thing is left out of these instructions.

The same issue exists with every single guide in this series—the camera WON’T COME APART with the steps shown.

Schritt 3

Isolate the back panel/touch screen section.
Using a Phillips #00 head screwdriver (found in iFixit tool kit), remove the 2 screws that secure the metal plate protecting the selector buttons.
Pry the small metal plate up with a plastic tool of your choice.
