Schritt 3

Insert the plastic opening tool in between the panels shown.
Apply pressure to unlatch the 9 spring clips located around the perimeter of the device.
Lift the panel from the device.

thank you for the instructions. Keep in mind that the Spring clips are just on the other side of the phone, the side without the photo button. Then metal casing is attached to the front and can bend easy. So be careful here. If you get a red light, 5 beeps, and the device turns off, it means you’ve got a physical error code, and you need to investigate. In my case, I disconnected one of the flex cables to one of the cameras, and this needed to be redone.

To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.

Nice demonstration, but if I can’t find a DB-110 replacement battery, I’m not sure if I would take the camera apart. If I find a replacement, this step-by-step demonstration will be very helpful.

The battery replacement for Ricoh Theta S is the Olympus battery model LI-92B.

It’s the perfect equivalent of the original Ricoh DB-110 battery. Tested personally.

Please don’t use any other similar battery or you risk to breaking the charge control circuit of the camera!!

Please note that you nullify the warranty, if the item is under coverage.
