Introduction
The reader will learn how to replace the back panel/touch screen of the Nikon Coolpix S800c. This may be necessary due to body damage or an improperly working screen that may be defective or cracked screen.
What you need
-
-
Remove all 4 screws from the bottom face of the camera using a Phillips #00 head screwdriver (found in iFixit tool kit).

Using a plastic tool, pry open the back panel of the camera. Be careful not to apply too much force and damage the camera.
This doesn’t work!!! I have two S800C cameras, and #1 there are FIVE SCREWS instead of four; one is on the lens side of the case. But once those five screws are out, the LCD will still not separate from the main body. Something in the vicinity of the shutter button is holding the two together. Both cameras are the same in that respect, and because I fear damaging *both* the body and the screen if I try to force it, I’m stuck tight wishing someone could clue me in as to what perhaps simple thing is left out of these instructions.
The same issue exists with every single guide in this series—the camera WON’T COME APART with the steps shown.

Many steps missing!! There are TWO more screws than the guide tells you about. Plus there’s no mention that after you finally get the camera split, you can’t just tug it apart—the motherboard is attached to the LCD. This guide is about worse than none at all!!
