Phone Portions - Base and Flip
This document uses the hinge of the phone to divide the phone into two identifiable portions.
The portion of the phone that contains the keypad will be referred to throughout this document as
the base portion of the phone. The other portion of the phone is the part that contains the display.
This will be referred to as the flip portion of the phone. The basic disassembly and reassembly
procedures will be structured based on these two distinct portions.
