Introduzione

This guide will show you how to remove the front camera from your Sony Xperia XA1 Ultra. The front camera should be replaced if the camera is cracked or damaged. A heat gun or hairdryer is needed to open the back panel, which can become hot and potentially damage the phone. In addition, a T5 screwdriver is needed to remove screws.

    • Wedge your finger under the bottom ridge of the SD card insert.

    • Pull outwards with your fingers to remove the SD card from the left side of device.

    How do you remove it? (Seems obvious but write for any audience, and say how to do things instead of just what to do)

    • Use a hair dryer to heat each corner of the phone.

    • Alternate heating each corner for a minute to loosen the adhesive binding the back cover to the phone.

    • Don't heat one area for too long; the phone may get damaged from overheating.

    Consider saying “loosen” instead of “soften” so that steps 2 and 3 use the same terms. Somebody may not know that heating the glue will loosen it, and so they will be confused reading “once the adhesive is loosened” in step 3.

    • Press a suction cup on a heated corner of the device.

    • Hold the phone down and gently lift the suction cup to create a small gap.

    • You may hear crunching or popping sounds when you lift up the back cover.

    sure that there is adhesive tape on backcover?

    where should it tape on at the device inside?

    looks more like only plugged together`?

    • Insert your iFixit Opening Tool in the small gap between your phone and the back cover.

    • Lift up on the iFixit Opening Tool and insert your plastic card in the small gap between your phone and the back cover.

    Period missing for first point.

    • Slide your plastic card along the side of your phone to loosen the adhesive.

    • Move the card along the sides of the phone to lift all of the corners.

    Can you clarify what should be repeated in this step?

    • Remove the four 4mm T5 screws on the top of the black panel securing the antenna module to the device.

    Clarify where the screws are

    Tiffany Dang -

    • Insert your iFixit Opening Tool underneath the antenna module.

    • Lift up gently with the iFixit Opening Tool to remove the antenna module.

    • The antenna module may be difficult to remove.

    Maybe add a caution that the module is hard to take off

    Tiffany Dang -

    Could use better explanation on how to take off

    Tiffany Dang -

    “to take off piece” change to take off the piece? Or even be specific, “pull with your hands to remove the module.”

    Kyle Ladtkow -

    also the picture makes it look as if you flip the antenna board over but it needs to be pulled up from the phone as if you bend it over it will break

    • Insert your iFixit Opening Tool underneath the front camera and gently lift up.

    • Remove the front camera by lifting the front camera up with your hands.

    The second part of this NEEDS an action shot
