This step may prove difficult as there are many pressure points holding the plastic backing in place. Use moderate force to pry them apart, but be careful not to snap the plastic or scratch the inside of the phone.

Use the nylon spudger to pry the plastic backing from the rest of the phone. Begin by using the indentation at the top left side of the of the phone as an access point. Work counter clockwise around the outside of the phone until the backing is dislodged.

There are plastic latches that secure the cover to the rest of the phone. These points prove difficult to dislodge. Use the gaps between them to create leverage.
