The screw needs a Tri-Wing bit. The screws are designed that way too keep consumers out (voiding warranty).

wow. no reply?

I too came here looking for how to take apart the Kx5 to replace the buttons. I already have the 3 wing #0 bit and got the 2 screws off the back, but the problem is, there seems to be 2 more under the slider that I can't get to.


So how does this phone come apart?
