The battery compartment should no be loose. Lift it away from the rest of the phone, as shown.

You can now lift the circuit board away from the rest of the phone.

You can now remove the front cover, as shown below.
The metal frame should also be loose and can be removed. Another ribbon connector needs to be unplugged like the one in the earlier stages of the guide.
