    • This step may be easier to remove the battery first, but it is not mandatory.

    • Place the spudger tool or flat plastic tool on top of the ribbon cable to avoid damaging it when prying up on the metal clip.

    • Use a plastic opening tool, or gently use a small metal flat-head screwdriver to pry up the metal clip. (It is recommended to use a plastic tool; However, if the opening tool does not work or fit into the small opening underneath the clip, use the flat-head.)

    • Prerequisite guides: Back panel removal, Battery removal

    • On the side where the volume buttons are, use a removing tool of some sort (Plastic tools may not work as well because the pieced are glued) and pry up the plastic strip encasing the volume, power, and camera buttons.

    • Be very gentle, these pieces are made of very thin plastic and may break easily.

    How do you put it back in?

    • After removing the thin plastic button cover, the buttons may fall out of place. That is okay. Just take them out and place them aside.

    • You may even use a screwdriver to pop them out of place, but it is not necessary.

    • Completely remove the plastic piece from the back panel shell.
