That's not right, just put my iPhone in parts and on the 3G it's definitly a white plastic which should be flipped!!

Guide worked like a charm!

Thx for this guys!

Perhaps I wasn't clear; some have white and some have black; consider yourself one of the lucky ones! This oversight can be costly otherwise.

Following this guide, while trying to "flip up the white plastic tab", it broke (it is the BLACK one that should be flipped) and now I have a 600 EUR paperweight.

On my 3G, there is both a white & black plastic tab; it is the BLACK one that needs to be flipped up 90 degrees...

Normally iFixIt is awesome with the details, but this oversight left me sad, annoyed, and without an iPhone :( :( :(
