Be extra careful of the power state before removing the battery  !

Many have reported the firmware on the modem can be corrupted by removing the battery while the phone is ON  !

It is easy to accidentally turn the phone on while struggling to remove the rear cover !

That is a concern. I wonder if the corruption also occurs when your OS halts due to the clock problem and the only way to reboot it is to hold down the power button. Hangups have been very frequent for my device. Does sailfish even have an off button? Tried that one, couldn't find it. Lune has one, but it doesn't seem functional. Both require holding the power button to reboot or turn off.
