Locate the SIM card tray on the side of the smartphone
and utilize a SIM card ejection tool, or paper clip, to
release and remove the tray from the Moto X.
1.
Next, near the dock connector on the bottom of the
smartphone, insert the precision knife in the seam that
separates the frame/front housing and rear cover. The
seam is very tight so we used the precision knife
instead of a plastic opening tool or spudger.
2.
Once the first clip is released, you can continue around
the perimeter of the Moto X with your plastic opening
tool gently freeing the clips.

Before completely removing the rear cover you need to
release the camera flash ribbon cable from its socket.
Release the cable by lifting the side opposite the cable
up 90 degrees.
You can now remove the rear case from the Moto X (be
sure to keep track of the power & volume buttons).
4.
Next, locate and remove the eleven T5 torx
screws that secure the upper & lower protective
covers/housing to the motherboard (marked with
orange circles).
5.
First, remove the lower protective cover; it should
release easily with the securing screws removed.

Next, remove the upper cover; it should release just as
easily from the motherboard.
7.
There are four connectors (marked with orange
rectangles) that need to be released. The connector
that rests upon the battery is a locking socket that
needs to be disconnected before removing the ribbon
cable. The other three connections can be pried up and
released.
8.
Now, slide the flat end of the spudger under the battery
and carefully lift it up from the securing adhesive. You
can now remove the battery from the Moto X.
