Samsung SCH-U340 Top Casing Replacement

Step 1 Battery

• Turn the cell phone so that the back side is facing you.
• Press the upper indent and slide the back cover down.
Step 2

• Pull the battery up from indent at the bottom and slide it out.
Step 3
• Set the battery aside.
Step 4 Top Casing
• The outer casing consists of two separate parts on the upper and lower halves of the device. The upper outer casing is held on through a combination of screws and tabs. First remove the plastic plugs covering the screws with a spudger.
Step 5
• Underneath the plugs are two small screws that can be removed with a small Phillips screwdriver. They will need to be pried out after unscrewing them due to their size. Take care not to lose the screws as they are small and have a tendency to roll.
Step 6
• The outer cover is now secured with seven tabs: one large tab (marked in red) and seven smaller tabs (marked in orange).
• To begin removing the outer cover start by prying the large tab up with a flat object.
Step 7
• Continue to pry each tab up, taking care not to break the tabs.
• If disaster strikes and a tab is broken, the outer casing can still be put back on assuming the majority of the tabs are still intact.
Step 8
• After the last tab is removed, tug gently on the outer casing to remove it. Don't pull too hard, or you may damage the wires connected to the speaker.
