Ok I feel like an idiot...(Batter cover)

How do you get the damn battery cover off sprints touch pro? Lmao. I've never felt so dumb in my life. I even read the instructions, it says to slide upwards, but it's not budging. Once I get the battery in the thing, I can begin the task of switching to VZW's network...So any help would be great. Thanks in advance. (Yes I tried searching, all I see are threads for replacement covers.)

Thanks in advance! Nice first post huh?

hold the phone face down in the palm of your left and hold the sides snug
hold the top left of the phone with your right index finger (the surface with the power button)
using your thumb on your right hand, push down and up on the battery cover

Thanks a lot, man! It seems like it just didn't wanna budge. Glad to be here, prompt answers. I'm gonna go attempt to get VZW service on Sprint via the thread here now!

For some reason, the first time you open it, it's really snug.

Thought I was going to break mine in the store on the first day, lol.

lol... I felt emboldened by my Senior Member status at PPC Geeks to just give it a go without reading the manual... Yeah... Let's just say I kept the manual in case...
