Toshiba Encore Mini Front-Facing Camera Replacement

はじめに

The Toshiba Encore Mini is equipped with a built-in front-facing camera and a built-in rear-facing camera. Before replacing either camera, we recommend you back-up any photos (or other data) to an external storage device. Also, you will need a good place to keep track of five very small screws, as you will need them for reassembly.
