              Lift and remove the rear panel               
  • When lifting the panel, make sure not to lift it too high, since you’ll run the risk of tearing the cable, or damaging the connector on the board.
  • Flip the lock on the flex cable connector up with a spudger.
  • The front panel should pop off, now that the cable has been disconnected.
  • When reassembling the device, make sure to insert the left side of the front panel first, since it has a small lip that needs to fit under the left part of the camera case.
