I've been trying to open mine for 5 hours. You say watch the video closely, but you don't show when you push down!!!!! You say line it up on the seam... do you push down on the seam, and then you just jump into the middle making the seam bit pointless.

I'm losing my rag at this phone!

@MysteryVoice2323 - I'm sorry you are having problems! What I did was lined the centre of my thumbs along the seam and using a lot of force (more than usual for a phone) you need to push down (you may hear a click) and then slide the cover away. If you are still having problems after this, then I suggest you take it to your local phone store. I hope you get this sorted out! ;-)

Please. I have been working with mine for like an hour now! I still can't get it open!

@ThatsTheHolyGrail @birdbird83 - All I can say is watch the Video closely, you have to position your thumbs in line with the join, push down and away! I'm sorry I can't be of more help.

This is rather in embarrassing. I've tried for two hours straight to open the phone, and I can't even feel it budge. My dad, who I consider to have the strongest hands in the world, can open all the bottles in the house when nobody else can't - he can't even open it. I'm really annoyed. I just want to put my sim card in and I CAN'T GET THE FLIPPING BACK OFF. Please help me, any suggestions!?

Well... HTC will receive a hate mail after this. After 2 hours of cursing and destroying my fingers, after i watched all the videos and reviews, the solution is simple: USE THE PALM, but NOT with your hand oriented up or down, but on the side. If you use your right hand make sure the fingers are on the side of the phone oppossed to the volume buttons. Press down and try to slide it in your direction.This way you can also protect the front buttons and the screen from too much pressure.Good Luck!

I have an htc status with an extremely stubborn cover. It will not come off. It feels like it's glued in there. I want to remove the battery to put it back in again because the device has shut itself off and won't come back on....but the alarm works just fine. Great.

[azimataiji]

got it using my palm!
