What you need
Step 1
Charger Port
- Use a plastic opening tool to pry open your phone case. Flip the phone over and start by sliding your tool between the two sides of your phone case. Work the tool towards the bottom of the phone case, gently prying the case open. There is a clip that will pop open after applying gentle but consistent pressure.
- Make sure to release the clip on the top left corner of the phone case carefully. This is usually the most difficult clip to release.
