Guest gilesjuk Posted March 31, 2006 Report Share Posted March 31, 2006 Grrrr, just got my A701, didn't get the SIM card in right and went to remove the battery but there's no clear way of removing it, no mention in the manual. I don't want to break anything. How does it come out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest gilesjuk Posted March 31, 2006 Report Share Posted March 31, 2006 (edited) C'mon people, this is driving me mad, I've already damaged my battery slightly now (plastic bit at the bottom), put small marks on the case and got biro ink on the battery. This is the most stupid battery retaining design I've seen and there's absolutely no info anywhere on the web.

This is the most stupid battery retaining design I've seen and there's absolutely no info anywhere on the web. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> The battery is easy to remove on my A701, just slide the back case downwards to remove it then, at the bottom of the unit/battery is a lip on the battery. This is above a white piece of plastic with reddish crosses on it. Just put your fingernail or similar under the lip on the battery and lift up. Hope this helps Bill ;) Edited March 31, 2006 by bill1967t Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh well, I guess I will have to get a precision screwdriver under it later when I get home. There's simply no reason for a battery to be in that tight, it's a really bad design.

Guest gilesjuk Posted March 31, 2006 Report Share Posted March 31, 2006 Well I've worked it out now and I take it all back. What happened is I didn't get the SIM card in right, so it was underneath the battery, when I inserted the battery it helped wedge in the battery tightly, hence my struggle at getting it out. Sorry Mitac, the design isn't bad ;) I don't like the SIM card holder tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
