Step 1
Remove Back Cover.
- Make sure to power down phone before starting.
- Insert the opening pick/tool into the slit between the case and the body of the phone. It can be easier to insert near buttons. Make your way around the case as you use the pick/tool to lift the cover from the body.
- Once completely loose lift the cover off and set aside.
- This is a good opportunity to blow out any dust that has accumulated.

- Using your Phillips 000 remove the eight screws found in the waterproof cover.

Step 3
Remove Battery
- Highly recommend making sure you are grounded before removing the battery. You will be handling areas that could cause damage if you accidentally create a static discharge.
- You will notice a disclaimer on the battery that states that if you remove the battery you void the warranty. Make sure your warranty has expired before performing this repair.
- Starting near the lower area of the phone, carefully press the battery towards the top of the phone and then lift up.
- Lift the battery up and over the top of the phone to expose the battery cable and port.
- Using tweezers and opening tool, flip the lock on the port and carefully pull out the cable.

Shopping sites in Japan are still selling SCP-67LBPS . Maybe they can’t send batteries to US. If you have a friend in Japan. You can ask him/her to get it.
