Hi,

unfortunately I dropped my MDA III, now it has a few malfunctions:
- battery switch (to hold the battery in place) broken, a part of it remained inside the case
- touch screen often hangs, sometimes works after a few bumps to the case

How can I open the case to try repair action? I saw a few screws under the battery and two screws on outside upper left and right, nothing else. Don't know what happens if I remove these screws. Applying Murphy's law it will separate into thousands of parts after having a wrong screw removed) :( :( :(

Best Regards

thanks for those many replies :( And everone who helped me will get the recipe for free, since I found it out myself finally. But unfortunately the repair action didn't work, seems like the touchscreen has to be replaced.
