Beware, as the Touch will be very hot. It may be helpful to hold it with a towel while prying.

Insert the edge of a plastic opening tool between the front glass panel and the plastic bezel near the home button.

Do not try to pry between the plastic bezel and the steel rear case.

Pry the bottom edge of the front panel upward, being careful not to bend the glass excessively.

If it is too difficult to pry up the front panel assembly, reheat it and try again.
