How to take apart the Eris!!
OK, so after about a month of trying, I finally got the phone apart and cleaned the dust out!
Here is a short tutorial, if you have any questions, feel free to PM me...
1. Shut phone off, remove battery cover and take out battery.
2. Remove the 4 T5 screws in each of the corners then separate the back cover.
3. Remove the 4 philips screws.
4. Now comes the hard part. There are 3 ribbon cables, one on the right side on top of the main board, the second is in between the main board and the copper covering and the third connects the LCD to the main board.
5. Once all screws and ribbons removed, take a flat head screw driver and slowly peel back the LCD(its stuck with double sided tape.
The real thanks go to MORPHEUS2 & JCASE @ irc.wastate.net Morpheus2 walked me through the process with some help from Jcase.
And there you go, I hope this helps!
