The Sony Xperia Z Ultra power flex looks to be the same as any other soldered on flex from the teardown pics. The steps to replace are as follows:
1. apply flux
2. wick solder off pads
3. remove flex while applying heat: DO NOT APPLY BRUTE FORCE OR YOU WILL RIP PADS it may help to add leaded solder to the solder points if you are having trouble.

@jimfixer He's getting better.. I may have to stop harassing him ;-) But he's still giving way to many judgmental down votes to others.
