He made it look so easy putting it back together. But in reality it takes a lot of re adjusting

"shouldn't take any effort at all..."

Me: *intense sweating and cursing in latin*

[badhorse]

You came here to figure out how to put the front panel back on didn’t you?

[FirstLast-yhgj]

That front panel ain't no joke lol

[twohawn]

"Everything should just kinda line up into place" MY ASS IT DOES

TO EVERYONE WHO STRUGGLES TO GET THE TOP BACK ON

Connect the ribbon and attach the front as shown in the video, then put the top cover on from back to front. It will push the front forward as it clicks into place, then you push the front into its latching spots

Thank you so much for your video! As others mentioned, I found it really useful to get my xbox one playable again. Considering you share this knowledge for free, you really make it easy even for novice like me.

[bxrbedwirezz]

This has got to be some kinda sick joke…. YOU KNOW DAMN WELL THAT COVER DOESNT GO ON THAT EASY!!! 😂😂☠️😭

This is a great tutorial. I now have a working SSD in my XBOX ONE!!!! Took me about 3 hours, mostly waiting on data transfer.
BE VERY CAREFUL WITH THE POWER BUTTON RIBBON CABLE!

I have my Xbox for 7 years now and after like 5 years I finally put my case back on thank you so much

[dudxjfnxdhee]

When you rip apart the case part I did it to hard and they all uncliped at the same time

[anirudhkorukonda]

I had been trying to reassemble my console for an entire day, with no luck, before this video saved my time. Thank you soo much. More people need to know about the front panel

[TheNeWHerO]

Great tutorial. At the end I struggled with the front part but I think it's fine.

Don't be scared to diy, this video it's really clear and you'll do fine

[kazni]

Thanks man this is probably the best tutorial on YouTube for this

[PRODKIGH]

Hey I have a question about the reassembling I’m stuck on putting the cover on. Please get back to me I’d appreciate it.

[GloomrotGaming]

[kallybarnes]
