Introduction

What you need

Step 1

              Back Cover               
  • Begin by having the side with volume and power button face up towards you.
  • Insert a plastic opening tool between the display and the back cover.
  • Once you have one plastic opening tool in, you can insert another one. While holding one in place, slide the other along the gap to release the tabs.
  • It is easier to remove the back cover, if the display screen is faced down.
  • The tabs must be released from all four sides before removing the back cover.

  • It is better to use a plastic card if you have one.
  • Gently lift up the battery as you continue to separate the glue from the battery.
  • Lift up just enough to see where the glue is, so that you don’t bend the battery.
  • Once the glue has been separated, gently lift up the battery and you will notice two wires attached to the motherboard.
