I've spent two hours searching the Internet and cliesource.com for NR70V hinge repair tips to compile a comprehensive summary of text and pictures before I tackle mine (has all the wobbles and creaks now, after 6 months of daily use).  I have these repairs:
- Camera side wobbly main hinge (picture but not text).
- Creaky main hinges (text not pictures).
- Wobbly twist screen hinge (both text and pictures).

But I know there are (were) others.  In particular, I can't find:
- Detailed images of the NR70V's insides (someone had them on his personal website at one time),
- Description and pictures for removing the back case cover,
- Description and picture of the camera-side main hinge repair for the type of problem where it has to be pushed down in tablet mode,
- Picture of the main hinge repair on the side away from the camera. 
- Description and picture for battery removal.
