How to remove the battery cover on the HTC Hero
Last Updated on Sunday, 21 February 2010 01:52 Written by Mike Sunday, 21 February 2010 01:52
I struggled with the instructions, push with thumb just was not cutting it. This might be a little tough to pop the first few times.
What I had to do was this;
- Place phone in face down in the palm of your left hand with the USB jack pointing towards you.
- Place your right palm on the back side of the phone just above the USB jack.
- Press your hands together and try to push the back away from the USB jack.
The first time it popped off with almost a click feel. Seems like it will get easier over time as well, once you know how to actually get the damn thing off.
Thank you! I struggled with it!

Fantastic! I was about ready to jump!
Best. Instructions. Ever.
Thank You so much. There was two of us and the instruction in the book were all wrong. This is the only way to get it off. It was so easy after following you…….Thanks again.
thanks!
On the road, this was a great help. Thank you…
I am on the road and i just have to say, THANK YOU!, I DONT KNOW YOU AND I LOVE YOU ALREADY!! I was so ready to break this damn phone until i saw your site.
I couldn't do it! I ended up using a sharp paring knife to pry it open, starting near the jack end. Even when I had 85% of it off I still had to pull up hard to get the top off. A knife is never the way to go but that's all I could do to get the cover off.
Ditto, to what everyone else said:)
Thank you!!!!!
Absolutely PERFECT! You should be a phone manual writer and demonstrator. Thanks a ton!
THANK YOU!!! From the instructions my fingernails were not strong enough. My husband's biceps were not strong enough. These were the only instructions that helped to remove the back.
omg. thanks!
Your instructions and picture helped! All other sites failed to do so.

THANKS! this worked first time
AHHH, I finally was able to get it off – thank you!!!!!
i can't do it ):
thank you ,I've tried every way I could and your way is the only way I got the mess off, again thank you very much
Great Explanation. I wanted to bust the phone…. Mine keeps loosing connection to the web and I heard the way to correct it is to take the battery out…any other suggestions?
You Rock!!
THANK YOU SOO MUCH!
Forgot my charger at a friend's place and my phone died; knew it would charge with my universal battery charger if I could only get the phone open! Worked like a charm!
OMG! Thank you!
I finally popped it off ..ughh idk why it takes so long .
OMG!!!! Thank you so much!!!!! My phone froze and had this hazard sign on it and I could not, for the life of me figure out where the battery opening was or how to get it off to restart it!! I followed your directions and it was off in 5 secs. lol Your directions were better then the htc hero website manual.
Thanks! THIS help really WORKED!!!
others didn't help. You are declared a Winner by me!!

THANK YOU, THANK YOU. I HAVEN'T LOOKED ON EVERY PAGE, BUT FIND NOTHING IN THE CONTENTS OR INDEX ABOUT REMOVING THE #%$%^%&%BATTERY.
OMG thank you so much for this post, I couldn't get it for the life of me, then just saw the pick and got it with one try!
Thanks. I have been trying to figure this out with my thumbs for an hour and all I have to show for it is broken nails. Your method worked with the first try. Thanks again!
Thanks… perfect instructions.. I was having lot of trouble opening it up!!
Thanks! This works so much better than what they instruct in the manual.
Thank you !
This was the only method that worked on my phone. Thanks for the input
more helpful than 90% of the sites i looked at
should of asked a Fifth Grader thanks
This actually worked!
thank you, perfect method
Thanks! It worked like a charm…once I pried off my clear cover…lol.
Thanks! I could NOT figure this out and felt like an idiot.

Now why couldn’t HTC be so clear!
Thank you SO MUCH! That actually works! The method that the Sprint Help Techs suggest and the HTC Manual suggest do not work.
