Place the battery in a container off to the side. If you do this for every step beyond this point, you will keep better track of your parts and make reassembling the device far easier when you get around to it.
It might not be necessary, but we recommend using an anti-static bracelet or anti-static mat from this point on. Any charge on your finger tips may cause harm to the device.
Use a T6 screwdriver to remove the four screws on the rear plate of the HTC Touch Pro.
Place your screws in a bag labeled with where they came from, what screwdriver you used, and the order in which you removed them. For example, this bag would say "Rear casing. T6. #1."
Insert your spudger along the slit between the keyboard and the external casing. Pry open as shown.
Careful! The ribbon connecting the keyboard to the motherboard will still connect the two halves of the phone when you separate them. Be sure to take your time and move slowly to avoid damage to the cable.
Remove the keyboard ribbon from the motherboard. To do this, simply grasp the ribbon at its base and pry it up at an angle. The ribbon has a metal end that is easily removed from the motherboard.
