Best Method of Removing Battery Cover! New Video!

prayer method all day long...all day strong

i found that putting your thumbs on the battery cover an your other finges on th front and just push up

Dude, this totally works!! Thanks, as I couldn't get it off with the thumb technique. Great video.

I can now open my battery cover with one hand!  Woohoo!

Hold phone like a can of tobacco (for all you dippers out there), Index finger over the headphone jack, thumb at a 45 degree angle over SAMS, push thumb up, voila!

I'm a bit rougher with my phones since I have service plans on them.. but 2 methods I use:

(if it gets difficult)
1. Hold the phone between both of your hands, maximizing your surface area you are touching to both the screen and back cover, and not 'folding over' the sides so you dont prevent yourself from opening the cover. Slide your hands apart while pushing your hands together.

(Preferred)
2. Same as was on the phone's sticky when I bought it. Lie the phone over your fingers (both left and right hands) so your thumbs are free to move around, and your device is resting on your fingers. Place thumbs on the center of the device near the top half of the phone (Under camera, above battery section) Apply downward pressure and slide the back cover up.


I used to use the side rails along side the battery cover, but sometimes I feel that's a bit more difficult.


The hardest removal I feel is if you push on the battery itself -- ESPECIALLY if you push in on an empty battery compartment (such as when you first get the phone with no battery in it)

For some reason i never had a problem removing my battery cover,I can take it off with no problem. lol

Just a small spray of silicon on the tabs made mine work easily without being too easy.  I reapply once a month.
