Help Cannot get back panel back in place Galaxy Note 10.1 2014

So I had the horrible black screen of brick after dropping this thing all of two feet onto carpet. Just before I threw it in the trash I saw a post that saved the day. Well I had to take the rear panel off to do the two minute fix and was ecstatic. Now the problem is that I can't get it back on properly and there is not any videos on the 2014 around yet.

The issue is a one inch, long plastic piece that is on the same side as the stylus. It is the only loose piece inside the rear case. I have tried every single angle and configuration but it always feels like I am going to break something if I try to close it all the way.

I am guessing that the piece has something to do with the WiFi because my range has been drastically reduced since the fix.

Any ideas will be appreciated. Thanks:confused:

That being the case, I think you can safely assume that this has has not happened to anyone else and that no-one knows the answer.

Your best bet is to look on YouTube. Here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y7PP4tCJGAQ is a video about replacing the battery, I would guess that you will be able to see your mystery part in the video but, since I don't need to replace my battery, I haven't actually watched the whole thing.
 
I'm a new owner but one of the things that was stressed in the t-mobile manual right in the setting up your device section was Caution: Do not attempt to remove the back cover as it cannot be removed.
