DIY opening tool

hi guys


i opend my first iPhone on monday, with those "iPod opening tool" (i had one cause i once opend an iPod) and it worked very smooth.

now on my second iPhone the metal plate without the buttons (camera-side) wont get opend, probably because the opener tools are already too much battered.

i tried it with guitar picks, wasnt able to open it.

as far as i've seen the tool should have a shape like an "L"

what else coul i use for this? maybe bend some metal to shape an L`?

what else did you use?

I use a couple of small screwdrivers for the silver case and some guitarr spike for the antenna cover

I opened one today, was a real biatch, seems they arnt going together properly in the factory, making it hard to get them off again. Another one i opened was easy as.

You will just have to force it off.
