    My (well it’s not really mine) iPad mini 2 does not look like this picture. It’s an A1490 and there is a metal bar and a bunch of stuff just not in the picture. The screw holes are there but no screws so what’s missing probably goes into that dead space. This ipad mini 2 has no dead space around the camera. There isn’t a single ipad mini 2 on this whole website that looks like mine. I guess I get to figure this one out on my own.

    • Use a plastic opening tool to lift the front-facing camera cable connector straight up off of its socket on the logic board.
