This is from my instructions on the full disassembly of the E715. I just cut and pasted the part for the front faceplate.

8. Using the Sharp pin or the Mini Flathead screwdriver, remove the two gray rubber pieces near the hinge on the inside to reveal the two screws.
9. Using the Mini No.0 Phillips, carefully remove the two screws and use the tweezers or needle-nose to pull them out and in a safe place.
10. Using your thumbnail, slide it in between the seam near the hinge to slide the credit card in to help separate the faceplate from the phone or continue to use your thumbnail if you prefer. Work your way around both sides until you get back to the other side.
11. The tricky part is that there is double-sided tape under the blue-gray piece at the hinge area and you will need to carefully separate to get the faceplate off.
