This is a lot of good video, thank you a lot because of him I managed to change the mask.

0:26 she spins the phone, not the screw. LOL. Somehow she reminds me of Scrat from Ice Age

great video! youve clearly done this before! lol

i had trouble with sliding the top part (that covers the camera) off. nearly broke it... i do have an issue with replacing it... the button which keeps that lens cover open or closed does not re engage, meaning the lens cover is just sliding around. it wont lock closed and you dont show that it functions in the vid.... any tips?

I heard you can use an old sim card if you don't have a Torx 6 screwdriver.
