Step 3

Place a plastic opening tool along the seam of the front plate and back plate. Run the opening tool along the seam while prying slightly in order to pop the plastic clips away from the front plate.
Once one or two clips have popped away you may begin to use your free hand to apply additional pressure while continuing to apply prying pressure as well with the opening tool.
Apply constant but controlled pressure while separating the front from the back. Damage may occur if using excessive pressure while separating the plates along the seam.

Continue working your way around the seam between the two parts and eventually you will be able to separate the entirety of the backplate revealing the internals of the device.

Step 5

              Battery Removal

Note the position of the battery connector.
We will be prying on the battery shortly which may cause accidental pressure to be place on this connector. Be careful not to damage this connector while removing the battery.

Step 6

Place the plastic opening tool to the side of the battery and work underneath the battery. Slowly and gently pry the battery away from the device removing the battery from the adhesive underneath.
After breaking away one side of the battery from the adhesive strips you can take advantage of the additional leverage by using your hand to break free from the adhesive on the opposite side.
You will hear cracking and popping as the battery breaks loose from the adhesive strips underneath. This is normal and to be expected.

Isaac - Apr 13, 2020

So I had this phone stuck in my closet in like 2 years or so. Water got into the micro-USB port and the whole phone just started to like reboot itself over and over. I pried the battery out of it and I need to look for both replacements. So I need to replace the micro-USB board or is there more to the problem? Please help!
