Hi Rambo47

What is throwing me is this logo plate under the keypad as i have not seen one like this on all the youtube repair videos saying 8520??

cheers

The 8520 logo clip at the bottom comes off easily. Use a safe pry tool or a strong guitar pick. Starting just below the space bar, at the upper seam of the "Logo Clip" insert the pick and work it to the left and right (slide, twist a bit, slide out a bit more until it pops away a bit, then work to the other side)

Then carefully pull the upper lip down... It will release from the rear clips as you work it down.

Follow youtube videos from there.

Many of the videos show a "Generic" clip (no brand label).

This 8520 will need a new dust screen, as its glued on to the housing after the LCD is replaced. I would order a generic external housing (C/With new screen cover) with safe pry removal tool and T5 + T6 screwdrivers from Amazon.com (the BB app available at amazon.com/bb). It's usually around $20-30 but will make the BB look like new, and get you the correct tools for BB repair and most other phones too
