Hey guys,
I got tired of the cheap plastic sounds my k750i was doing and I read on a forum you could get rid of those sounds by placing a small sheet of paper between the battery and the battery cover.
I did so, and it makes less sounds indeed, but now there's absolutly no way I can remove the battery cover anymore. Seriously it's like it's been glued to the phone!! Maybe I'm doing something wrong, I used to simply push the cover with my thumb, maybe I should press somewhere to release the cover from the phone's grasp.
Please help !!
thanks

welcome to Esato
my K750 battery cover was extremely tight when I first got it so I can only suggest the method I used then to remove it.
if you press down (towards the bottom of the phone) on one side of the little metal bar on the battery cover, then press down on the other side, eventually it should cmoe a little free and you can wiggle it off by repeating those steps

Thanks masseur for the quick response,
But it won't move .... AT ALL! It's difficult to get a grasp on it, but it's not even the issue. Even if I wanted to brutally rip it off with all my strength, I wouldn't be able to do so.
Maybe I should try to introduce a knife below the camera cover to use as a lever but I'd like to know if it's possible to get the original black casing just in case I need to replace it.
If you have any idea, don't hesitate cause I'm desperate here
Thanks a lot

ok, well the other suggestion I give is the put the phone perpendicular in the palm of your hand so your three middle finger nails can push down on the metal bar as you support the phone with your other hand
good luck!

try pressing down hard on the battery cover, while pressing the button and pushing it out.

I had that. It will come eventually. For now use one of those rubber thin pads used to get jars open for the kitchen.

Try to budge it from the top of the cover with your nail. If not, use something small like a swiss army knife to budge it.

Hopefuly I work in Geneva right now, so I didn't have to go too far to find a swiss army knife, I just asked my neighbor if he had one by any chance, and he did!
I finally removed that stupid sheet of paper and kinda ruined the back cover as I expected
Nothing really serious, a few scratches. Do you guys know if the whole back panel (back cover and camera cover) can be replaced?
thanks everyone for your help and support
