    For some odd reason, I was unable to put the SIM tray back after a successful repair!? It stands out by half a milimeter now, it works, but it's like a button in terms of how much it overlaps now. So, be careful, I guess, although I am unsure what is causing this.

Genius.

Of course if I am here is because the sim card tray broke inside the phone, so I'd need to know the minmum amount of step to get it out from the inside without ruining anything else ...
