I used this video. You may have already watched.

I put mine together more upright. My back button pads fell out too. Make sure your buttons pop into place. I already had my glue gun out from adding in an extra usb port so added a bit to the hinges to give a bit more resistance. This helped the pads stay in place. Also recommend putting in just one screw when you put it together so you can make sure all your buttons feel OK.

Also be careful with the small ribbon cables going to the shoulder button contacts. They feel a bit weak. Will be a pain if your not good at soldering if you break it.

I realized that I had to press the L and R buttons over the hinge side so they fit in their hole.
