Remove the soft, protective, outer covering.
-
Use a heat gun (or a hair-dryer) to heat the main unit of the Plantronics Voyager Legend. This will loosen the adhesive that bonds the covering to the housing.
-
Use the pointed end of a small, metal spudger to begin separating the covering from the housing.
-
Use the rounded, dull end of the spudger to gently detach the rest of the covering.

Begin removal of the battery circuitry.
-
Use the flat end of a spudger to begin lifting against the metal tab of the top edge of the circuit board unit.
-
When lifted enough, use the pointed end of the spudger to lift the remaining distance. This is accomplished by inserting the pointed end of the spudger into the hole in the circuit board unit located at the opposite end of the charging port.

How to put it back again ? and is it gonna be how it used to be ? with the rubber being torn apart ??
1. I dont really think you need to remove the rubber. It gets stretched and torn and doesn't go back the same even with adhesive. I think the black plastic "cap" can be removed without fully removing the rubber. Other than that the repair worked ok, but it doesn't look/feel the same so I ended up buying another one anyway and now this is my spare. It's a fairly delicate/complex operation and probably not worth the effort.
I agree. I left the rubber intact on mine for that very reason, only slightly unsticking the edge with the guitar pick, which enabled me to pop the hard plastic panel/cap off reasonably easily. I did manage to break the clip at the top edge (above the power button) but a small drop of superglue was all that was needed to fix it. It definitely feels the same as before, so I’m glad I spent the AUD$30 for the battery instead of another AUD$130 for a new headset. It’s a shame to waste otherwise perfectly working hardware.
Also, for anyone who is currently running on a firmware version older than v110, if your PLT Hub software alerts you to upgrade to v110 (I was running v109), it is possible you will have issues with unstable call audio (media audio plays fine). If you experience this problem, you can check my solution (involving a downgrade and a reset) here: https://community.polycom.com/t5/Bluetoo...
Otherwise, just stay on v109!
