Step 1 says the screwdriver should only be used once. Is this correct? Or should it read the screws should only be used once?
This was a remark made in the products section for the rear glass panel on the Verizon CDMA, "The instructions don't tell you to make sure that you remove the plastic lens from the front facing camera." It is referring to the protective plastic film on the new rear panel that protects the new lens. This should definitely be included in the instructions for replacement of the back panel.
