Does anyone have a good way of taking the case out without cracking it or breaking it. It seems impossible.

According to the instructions, don't be afraid to use force since it is made from polycarbonate. I just tried and it is truly hard. Let us know if force works without breaking.

There are screws in the top, sides and the back at the top border. Just take them out and lift the case from the sides. It should come right off. I did it to remove a disc that was jammed.

It was challenging and there's no easy way. I pulled the sides of the case away from the phone as I pressed on the camera lens behind the phone. It popped out after a few tries. That's the best I can give you, good luck with that.

The only thing you can break is the plastic part that holds the phone inside the case, LOL! Not you phone. I used butter knife just to pry it out. And nothing broke.

Yeah, it took me a couple of times to get used to removing the phone. I hold the phone with my right hand and slide down the top left corner of the case with my left hand. Holding the phone firmly with one hand is important, as the phone tends to pop out and fly out of the case otherwise. Hope this helps.

no you can't. The case is completely protective and snaps closed.the phone cannot come out of the case unless you remove it

Tug, pull and pry carefully. Once it's on, it's kinda tough to get off but start with top and work your way around hard case...

I would not recommend, trying to remove the case. That is how, my old case got broken.

Just bend the case a little, it wont break unless you probably are too rough. But it easy

I had the same problem. I ended up using a credit card to pry it out of the case so I didn't scratch my phone. I hope that helps.

I have not removed it from the case since I got it a few months ago. Doesn't seem like a very good idea, it's not too easy to get in and out and I suspect it would wear it out quickly. You should plan on putting it on and leaving it on. I have not found a reason to take it out of the case, you can do everything you need to do with it in.

Yeah, it's really tough... I found that if you go to the weakest point (where the volume controls are) and stick your fingernail between the phone and the edge of the case, you will able to pry it off.

Get a butter knife or coin and slip though the little opening on the right side the slide it a little and the case shall come apart ..( I just tried and it worked)

I have not had a problem with the case opening by itself and there is no way it is coming out of the case on its own.

You have to pull on every corner and side and "loosen it up" then I usually put both thumbs on either side of the volume hole and pull it apart. It feels like it is going to break, but it hasn't broken for me

wow -it's hard. just broke a fingernail. Put in the charger to help with leverage, then insert a fingernail at the midpoint of the side, and gently wiggle and pry case away from phone. good luck ! I think I'll go back to my soft case.

I had no problems getting the phone out of the case. It should not be the most simple thing in the world. I just pry the corner where the camera is away and the push the phone out through that camera hole and then just pry it the rest of the way out with my finger. IMO...it's probably best that it doesn't just slip right out of the case.
