You do not need to separately remove the back and the frame. You can do it in 1 step if you start around the screen and remove the frame and back together.

Exact, on peut déposer le volet arrière en 1 seul fois. Commencer sans outil, juste avec les mains en forçant légèrement sur un angle inférieur (droit ou gauche peut importe) afin de déboîter un premier clips-plastic. Puis avec un outil fin en plastique (pas de métal de préférence !) faire le tour de l’écran afin de déboîter tous les clips-plastic. Merci pour ce post.

To keep the frame notches intact, pry the frame first sideways, then to the back, lifting the outside notches of the frame over the inside notches of the device.

My rear panel seems welded together with the frame, so came off as a whole. I noticed 8 inside/device notches of the total 4x6 notches broke in the process.

Before disassemble, I noticed in the middle on the longer side, next to the power button, already a gap, through which I saw the copper shining of the sidekeys part. Maybe because of temperature expansion or strain of the elastic corner clips of the sleeve I used.

Correction: “To keep the frame notches .. device.” = “Notches on the plastic motherboardchassis are snapped over notches of the outside frame locking both together. To keep the chassis notches intact, .. chassis.“

Disconnect the ZIF connectors to release the data cables holding the battery in. Use tweezers to do this.
You can also use your hand to remove ZIF connectors.
ZIF connectors are delicate so be careful when you are removing them.

Find the place where the battery connector is. Disconnect the battery connectors by carefully pulling up on them using a spudger or plastic opening tool.

Using a plastic opening tool carefully pry the battery loose. The battery is glued to the pad; slight pressure will be needed to remove the battery.
The casing of the battery is soft and can easily tear. Tearing can lead to the chemicals in the battery to leak out.
