Sony Ericsson Z500a Keypad Replacement

Remove the back cover and the battery.

Remove the 4 screws using a T6 precision screwdriver.

Flip open the phone, and keep the back cover facing you.

Take the plastic opening tool and run it between the phone case and phone body to loosen the key pad while the phone is open.

Note: There are 2 clamps that lock it to the phone case (1 on each side).

Flip the phone over and lift straight up on the key pad to remove it.
