The rear case of the Droid RAZR contains the loudspeaker and the flash for the rear-facing camera. Removing the rear case is necessary in order to access either of those components.

Use the tip of a spudger to lift up the red silicone cover over the battery terminal screws and remove it.
I did this repair on a Droid Razr model xt912. My version has a plastic shield over the battery connectors; the shield is part of the rear case, so I had to do steps 6-9 before I could do steps 4 and 5.
Thank you so much for this comment - saved me a lot of confusion.
Also noted that not all screws were the same as noted. I was just careful and made sure they bit fit before torking.
What are steps 6-9? This article store at step 5. The terminals on my phone are covered too and it's not obvious how it is removed.
Excellent guide, but it forgot to include that you need to get double sided adhesive to replace the old adhesive. Maybe its implied? Anyways I got mine from here: http://www.repairsuniverse.com/3m-double...
Step 1 should be to remove the case screws. No way your removal tool will get the back off with the screws still on.
Mine was on too tight to pry off. Even with small screwdrivers I was unable to get the case opened up all they way around without bending the edge metal out of shape (which is the reason for a plastic tool).
If you have the wireless charging coil installed, you can forget the adhesive back.

Remove the two 3.3 mm T5 Torx battery terminal screws.
-
Grab the blue battery removal tab and lift the battery out to remove it.
Very helpful, but I needed to remove the frame around the battery before I could actually get the battery out. No big deal, just a few more screws. Thanks.
That’s actually pretty vital to the whole removal process.
Anyone know somewhere to purchase these “3.3 mm” terminal screws if ever lost?

Use a heat gun or hair dryer to soften the adhesive underneath the camera cover.
-
Gently pry up the bottom edge of the camera cover with a plastic opening tool.
-
Carefully slide the plastic opening tool across the bottom edge to free it from the adhesive.
-
Continue to use the heat gun as needed to soften the adhesive as you remove the camera cover.
Is it really necessary to remove the camera cover to replace the display assembly??? Reviewing the rest of the steps to the display, I could see no reson to remove the camera cover. Of course I've not begun my own disassembly yet, but when I do I'll see if the camera cover can be left in place and let you know how it goes.
Yes. Check the step 8. The camera cover hide one T3 torx screw.

Remove the six screws securing the rear case to the rest of the phone:
-
three 6.7 mm silver T3 Torx screws at the top,
-
four 4.0 mm gold T3 Torx screws in the middle,
-
and three 4.5 mm black T5 Torx screws at the bottom.
Some phone models with have T3 torx screws (orange circles)
MIND YOU !
This is a mistake or the production process has been altered.
Infact, all but 3 (of all screws described as T3) are infact T4 !
You can imagine my face when I took the phone apart today and the T3 driver head didn't fit -.-
I am also having trouble with the top middle screw. After working to turn the screw it became stripped. Very gently and very slowly I drilled away the head of the screw, and completed the disassembly. But the rest of the body of the screw is still in the post, and it seems too risky to try to drill anymore. Any advice on how to remove the rest of the screw or resecure this section when I put everything back together?
