I bricked my phone like i've done many times before but battery ran out when i was ready to use RSDLite to flash either of my .sbf files, (Clockwork Recovery 2.5.0.1 & SPRecovery_ESE81.sbf). Now i'm stuck not having the "ok to program" in fastboot.

I tried the suggested solutions i could find on various forums, but no luck.
Then came to the last resort, which is charging via my usb>micro usb cable,
which i cut in half and isolated the black and red wires,
ready to connect them to + and - behind the backcover of the phone.
Got started and realized my phone has a protective cover,
bought all the neccesary tools during this week.
I find that i can't get to the + and - because of the protective cover,
which is a part of the entire phone and not removeable as far as i can see.

Phone: Motorola Razr MAXX with EB40 Battery and International GSM (I'm from Denmark)
Can't quite figure out what model it is, XT910, XT912 or XT916.
After a long time searching i haven't found any dissasembly guide with the protective cover installed.

Could sure use some help, either removing the cover without destroying my phone
or a software based solution to charge the battery.

Turns out the visible plastic when the backcover is off, is an internal frame that needs to come out to gain access to the battery + and -
It's extremely tricky.
The seperation is between the plastic and what would seem to be the glass in front.
I used a few homemade plextors made out of hard plastic. After about 20 minutes of fiddling and gaining confidence to use a bit more force it came off and it's currently charging.

Just an FYI if anyone is ever in the same situation.
