Screwdriver.

The opening process may take a few minutes. The plastic will make a light snapping noise as the back cover separates from the rest of the phone.

The battery is securely glued to the phone. When reinstalling the battery, press the battery firmly against the adhesive strip.
Remove the two 4.8 mm screws that hold the speaker enclosure together using the Phillips 00 screwdriver.
 Gently pry the speaker up and away from the back of the phone using a plastic opening tool, and lift it out of the phone.
