    • The first picture shows how the left side of the camera looks once we remove the side piece.

    • Use the Phillips #00 screwdriver to remove the two screws on this left side.

    • Flip your camera to the right side where we removed the first two screws.

    • Use the plastic opening tool into the crack and lift in order to loosen that side of the shell. Loosening one side makes removing the entire shell easier.

    • Once the side is loose, apply a small amount of force to remove the shell.

    • Remove one side and then the other to avoid breaking any piece of the camera.

    • Keep the battery compartment open to make this step easier.

    • Removing the outer shell will expose the motherboard (the green chip).

    • Carefully grab the motherboard and flip it over.

    • Locate the ribbon wire protruding from the motherboard. Grip the wire as close to the white square as possible and slightly pull it to disconnect it from the wire.

    • Remove the LCD Screen to separate the metal frame connecting the screen to the camera.

    • Gently pull the metal frame away, keeping in mind that the right end of the screen is attached by a ribbon wire.

    • Slowly remove the metal frame until it fully pops off.

    There is some adhesive behind the left side of the LCD connecting the metal frame behind the LCD to the black plastic backing of the lens assembly, this is what made it so hard to pull apart in my case…

    • Flip the metal screen to be facing down. There will be a small black clip on the white connector that will allows the ribbon wire to be removed.

    • Carefully lift the black clip and slide the ribbon out in order to remove the LCD screen.

Conclusion

To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.
