Before you begin you will need to fully power off your device and remove the stylus pen.

Taking your safe open pry tool gently pry in between the seam of the back cover and the housing applying even pressure along all sides of the cover to release the clips holding it in place.

After the back cover has been removed you can now take your Small Phillips Screwdriver and remove the (8) screws circled in the figure below.
