6 steps

Removing the stylus
Use your finger to pull the stylus out of your Galaxy Note 4.
Removing the back cover
Disconnect the back cover from the back of your device. There’s a little indentation (blue arrow) at the top of your Galaxy Note 4 that you can stick your fingernail in.The back cover is hooked onto the device at several points so you have to use your finger in more than one place and then pull carefully.

Remove the back cover.
Removing the battery
Using your finger, lift the battery a little bit out of the enclosure.

Use your thumb and finger to take the battery out of the enclosure.

Installing the battery
Put the battery back in the enclosure. Make sure the battery’s four gold contacts are touching the four gold springs in your device.

Put the battery back in so it’s flush with the enclosure.
Attaching the back cover
Put the back cover on the back of your Galaxy Note 4. Make sure the back cover is in the right position.

Press the entire surface of the back cover onto your whole smartphone so all the back cover’s clips click into place in your device.
Putting in the stylus
Put the stylus back in your device by pushing it into the opening at the bottom of the enclosure until it clicks into place.
