Flip to the back side of your Nvidia Shield Pro Android TV.

To open the bottom cover of the Nvidia Shield, start from the corner and slide your plastic opening tool across the gap.

Next to the empty socket where the black wires were attached to the I/O board (refer back to Step 2), detach the plastic strap from the I/O board by pushing the strap away from the socket using your finger.
These are horrible, potentially damaging instructions. DO NOT try removing the ribbon cable without unlocking the connector first. Gently lift the black, plastic tab on the end by flipping it up toward the white ribbon cable connector. It will hinge all the way up until it moves freely. This is not pictured above, all three images show the tab in the locked position.
Now the ribbon cable should easily slide out of the connector without any additional force. If it doesn't, the tab is likely not lifted up all the way.
Be very careful with the ribbon cable and do not bend it. Simply applying force until it slips out as suggested above could cause irreversible damage.
