		Step 1 This is the back of the blackberry 8800 with the battery cover removed.
		Step 2 There are 4 torx screws that need to be removed.
		Step 3 Behind the backplate there are 2 more torx screws that need to be removed.
		Step 4 Once the 4 screws are removed you can  then remove the the back cover that covers the top of the phone.  To do this lift up from the bottom and push the casing away and upward simultaneously to ease it ouf of the 2 latches holding it in from the top.
		Step 5 Now the side plastic pieces can be removed from the device with the torque screws removed.
		Step 6   Remove the other side plastic piece just like the first one and flip your phone over and it will look like this.
		Step 7 The bottom of the phone has a plastic clip that holds the backplate and frontplate together that needs to be removed.
		Step 8 This can be done by simply pulling on the plastic piece.
		Step 9 The wire that connects the antenna needs to be removed.  It is delicate so do it with the little flathead screwdriver.
		Step 10 This is what the antenna cable looks like when it is disconnected.
		Step 11 Once the antenna cable is removed you can now seprate the 2 remaining pieces of casing apart.  You can do this by using a flathead screw driver to go around the edge and undoing the snap together latches.
		Step 13 This is the 8800 logicboard from the back.
		Step 12 The last thing connected to the 8800 logicboard is the LCD ribbon cable.
		Step 15 It needs to be disconnected with the flathead screwdriver so you do not pull it of the 8800 logicboard and break the cable.
		Step 16 Now it can be removed from the casing.
		Step 17 This is the 5pin USB connector that can become loose or broken due to everyday use of the phone.
