In Step 3, mention that you need to lift up on the black locks to take out the ribbons.

Actually, on my device one lock was colored faun (beige). Lift them seen from the edge of the Note, not on the cable side.
Also, mention that you can disconnect the battery from the device by gently pulling out the battery and gently lifting up the wires.
This is not a plug to be pulled in the direction of the cables but vertically off the board. Putting it back in you simply plug the contacts down first, then the cable side of the plug.

When replacing the back cover, hook the bottom edge into the frame along the edge before trying to snap the rest in place along the sides.
