Flip your device so that the long side without the buttons is facing you.

Insert the plastic opening tool between the silver back plate and the screen. From the corner of the device on either side, pry the seam of the device about 1 inch.

With the plastic opening tool, pry the screen apart from the back plate.

Keep prying the screen apart from the back plate until they are separated.

With the plastic opening tool, if necessary, pry part the remaining seams of the device.

After the screen is loose, pull the screen towards you. Lift it to prevent damage to the buttons.
