Where does the magnet go back in the phone. I have reasembled it but it turns iself off when I close the clamshell. Also it is hard to get to turn on.
The little square silver magnet is located next to one of the black torx screws in the cover. If you are looking at your phone with the cover open and the keys right side up, it is the black screw under the rubber plug on the right hand side. The edge of the magnet fits into a pocket that is molded next to the screw hole in the inside half of the cover. Since you have already opened your case you probably know to use a #T7 torx screwdriver for these screws. I hope this helps. --Mike.

Is there anyway you can provide a photo of the area, because I am not sure which side of the screw, since the magnet tries to adhere to the hinge.
Also, do you know if this little square magnet, acts as a magnetic reed switch, meaning it sends power through when the magnet lines up , and when the phone is open the switch is broken; or is it just to hold the clamshell closed. I believe it somehow acts as switch.
