You could try a credit card, avoid metal tools.

The battery is still connected at this stage so, yes, avoid metal tools.

Once the outer frame was mostly unclipped with the opening tool, I found the ifixit triangle plastic picks useful. As well as clips around the 4 edges there are maybe 4 more clips in the centre of the back cover that are a challenge.

Make sure the display screen and logic boards and battery all come out in one bundle, just leaving a bare plastic back shell. Others have reported that if you separate the screen from the boards you’ll invariably break a ribbon cable and lose touch sensitivity.

Paso 2

By sliding the plastic opening tool around the rim of the device, carefully continue to pry apart the screen and back cover.
Try to separate evenly on all sides until the screen detaches from the device backing completely.
If this is the first time removing the back cover, it will be rather difficult to separate it from the tablet.

Paso 3

Remove the back cover after the entire rim is disconnected.

I did some diy fixing because my tab-s came having issues. All battery connection related. Easy fix about 10 minutes but now the back cover won't sit flush and there's a large gap…idk what to do now it's infuriating there no broken tabs or connections
