Great instructions. This was my first time taking apart any phone. Everything went smoothly and my camera now works! thank you

Christopher Piatt - crwdns2934203:0crwdne2934203:0 crwdns2950251:0crwdne2950251:0

the camera is held down with sticky tape and I wasn’t comfortable pulling hard under the processing board, so I pulled the six screws holding that down and removed it first. Unfortunately for me the new camera still doesn’t focus…

This worked great for me. I was a little nervous prying on my phone, especially when I heard the first POP. But after that, it was not hard at all. The new camera focuses great for me now and I can get back to taking great pictures with my G5!

Thanks for the detailed instructions, tools and affordable part!

You may want to mention that the original camera is glued in. It takes a bit of prying to pop it out.
