Step 1 - The gap is too small to simply use the pick. The suction tool also did not provide a big enough gap to get the pick in. In order to get the pick in I had to heat up the back and use the suction cup in order to get the pick. Then moved the pick around the perimeter to pull of the back. The battery was attached to the back with two glue strips. I unpluged the battery ribbon cable and got the glue off using the two pull tabs that were attached to the glue.
The rest of the steps were non existent in my case. Hope this reply helps
