There is a small amount of adhesive on the center of the back to attach it to the battery. Using the spudger, separate the adhesive to free the back cover from the phone.

There are ten T5 torx head screws that secure the rear chassis onto the phone. Use the T5 torx bit screwdriver to remove these screws and free the chassis.

Once all of the screws are removed from the chassis, utilize the plastic opening tool to separate the rear chassis from the body of the Motorola Atrix HD.

How to remove Speaker Assembly
