Introduction

Step 1

              Removing the back case

Start by powering off the phone.
Next remove the sim card tray.
Once sim tray is removed you can now remove the T5 screw from the sim card slot.
Now insert the T5 screwdriver into the headphone jack. There is a T5 screw in the headphone jack that has to be loosened.
The screw in the headphone jack does not come out, so do not try to remove it. Nokia uses a lock bar on this case that locks the plastic clips in place. So the screw in the headphone jack is how you loosen and tighten the lockbar. You will break the back case trying to remove it if you are unaware of the lockbar and do not loosen it first.

Step 2

Now with the lock bar loosened you can begin using your pry tool to free the plastic clips that hold the back case in place.
I find it easiest to start at the top left corner and work down to the bottom left corner. Then move to the top of the device and work your way around and down the right side of the device. I then free up the bottom last. Seems the guitar pick works great to free the plastic clips.
Once the clips are free you can then pull the back case off.

Step 3

You have now removed the back case.
To reassemble follow these directions in reverse order.
The area highlighted in blue in the picture is where the lock bar resides.
