battery replacement - volume buttons ribbon cable damage

crwdns2934249:0crwdne2934249:0:

you guys at ifixit really dropped the ball on this one. Why you did not underscore a caution when removing the old battery; to use extreme caution at the volume button end of the battery??

When I used my tool to pry the battery up, I nicked the volume buttons ribbon cable. Then trying to repair this thing which was already brittle, it broke clean in two! Now buttons are inop and I will have to pull all the innards to replace it, a very daunting task!

Can you guys send me a replacement? I'm overseas and need this done ASAP! Also I advice updating the ifixit procedure for this caution to save others from this terrible fate!
