It's not too hard if you have all the right screwdrivers, you need a T4, T5, T6, and preferably an opening tool (plastic) so you don't either damage the phone's facia/chassis, or cut your fingers (like I did once) trying to prise it apart!
You'll need a T3 screwdriver to undo the tiny screw on the flip mechanism behind the battery cover, they can be hard to get hold of and will probably have to get this from a Hong Kong/far eastern seller on Ebay.

do you know how to open cellphones?
if so it's not hard at all...
even if you're a noob open the v3 is about a 5/10 in terms of difficultly i'd say.
I'm doing mine next week.... |
