Take your pry tool and insert it between the lcd and silver trim. It shouldn't take much pressure as the plastic is very flexible. Then slide it down to about where the keys meet the screen and pry it out a bit. You should hear the tab pop out. There is another tab on the opposite side in the same location, centered near where the keys and screen meet. Lastly, you'll need to pop a couple more tabs up from under the trim at the bottom of the phone.
Don't mind my photography here, I didn't have an assistant so I used a couple extra iPod tools to prop up the phone! Once you've got the tabs from the sides and bottom released lift the trim up from the bottom of the phone and push the whole piece up towards the top of the phone. The section covering the lock and mute buttons should slide off of the section of the phone above the lcd and the whole piece will come off.
This phone is remarkably easy to take apart, and all of the sudden the guts are all exposed and stuff! The next step is to remove the keypad. There's really nothing holding it on but friction at this point, and it may have fallen off when you removed the trim. But if it's still sitting there go ahead and grab it and pull it off. The trackpad will remain, we will get to that in a minute. With the trim and keypad removed we now have 4 more T5 screws revealed surrounding the LCD.
These screws are holding in the mainboard. Go ahead and remove them. These 4 screws are silver, where the first 2 were black. They are also shorter, so make sure you remember that.
Shouldn't be too hard. Time to remove the mainboard. The only thing left to do before we can pull it out is to disconnect the ribbon connector at the top for the media card slot. Lift the board up near the top of the phone and slide it out away from the bottom of the phone and it should come out easily. Take care when removing the mainboard, as some of the tactile buttons from the side of the phone may fall out.
These small pieces are easy to lose, so if they fall out make sure to remember where they went and put them back or set them with the rest of the parts. Don't forget to reattach the buttons to the phone's lower case before replacing the mainboard! The next step is to remove the trackpad. Flip the mainboard over and disconnect the large ribbon connector from the center. Flip the mainboard back over and simply lift the trackpad up and carefully slide the ribbon connector through the opening. Yup, that's all there is to this unique little part.

To remove MicroSD card, push the card inward towards the top of the phone then release. The MicroSD card will be ejected. The keyboard is attached via a ribbon cable. Pull the cable up to remove the keyboard. Using the T5 Torx Screwdriver, remove the four torx screws that are located on the bottom half of the device.
Now, carefully and gently using your fingers, lift and remove the assembly from the back case. Cancel: I did not complete this guide.
