Android G1 keyboard replacement, timelapse

This video shows the G1 Google android phone apart to replace the keyboard. Actually, this is the second time I took apart the G1, I initially replaced the keyboard, but when I put the phone together, the period key was randomly repeating. In this video I take apart the phone, and reseat the replaced black keyboard. Everything worked fine on the phone after this.
