hi I'm Gwendolyn with iFixit in today's
retro repair is the Motorola RAZR this
was my last flip phone and I loved it
way back in 2008 I made the switch to an
iPhone and I never looked back but I do
miss the simplicity of my little flip
phone sometimes so today I'm gonna do a
camera replacement in my Motorola RAZR
here's what you're going to need a
plastic opening tool t5 Torx screwdriver
and tweezers as always this is just an
overview so make sure you refer to the
guide on ifixit.com
when you do your repair we're going to
start by removing the battery unlike my
smart phone there are no tools needed
for this step first we're gonna open the
back panel by pressing down against this
over button you can set that aside and
remove the battery by pushing down on
the top and pulling it away from the
phone similar to the cover now open the
phone we're going to use our tweezers to
remove the rubber stops covering the
screws of the upper casing my razor has
been opened a time or two so it's lost a
few rubber stops along the way make sure
you remove all four if you have them and
then you can remove the four t5 screws
with those out of the way let's pop off
the casing with our opening tool be
careful not to lose the side buttons
when you open the casing now we can get
to the camera that is only connected by
one ZIF connector we're going to lift
the tab and gently pull the cable out
with our tweezers last step is removing
the rubber casing around the camera with
everything disconnected and out of the
way we can lift the camera out of the
phone I hope that retro repair was as
fun in nostalgic for you as it was for
