Introduction
This guide help you replace your Nvidia Shield Portable buttons if they are faulty or broken. If the buttons on your controller are faulty or broken it is important to replace those buttons as they can interfere with the controllers ability to receive the users inputs (button presses).

From where can I get the buttons?
Hey:) I am not sure
For the rubber screw covers, it is easiest to push at them at the top, otherwise you have the possibility of damaging the surrounding rubber.
Any hints at getting the center plastic screw cover out?
