How NOT to remove the display!

I just destroyed my display module a bit and had to fix it with glue. :(

This works better: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wGTYZNzg...

I think this guide should mention that the camera connecting cable can become disconnected accidentally on its other end (under the metallic cover) which is easy to miss. This forum post helped me: https://forum.fairphone.com/t/be-careful...

The metallic cover can be removed easily after screwing off two Torx screws. Couple of people on the forum experienced this and it helped me solve my problem.
