Before disassembling your Alcatel One Touch Evolve 2, be sure it is powered off.
Make sure your nylon spudger is pressed thin at the tip. Nylon spudgers tend to dull after use, and a dull spudger will be more difficult to use in this repair.
Take a nylon spudger and pry apart the back plastic casing of the phone. Begin with the gap in the bottom right hand corner, and pry the spudger around the outside of the phone until it dislodges from the body.
Once separated, remove the plastic backing from the phone and set it aside.
