I'm having the same problem as you. I can't figure out how to take the front cover off either. I was told I didn't need any tools to do it, but I can't remove it at all.
Can someone please help?

to get the faceplate out is not simple and require force yet no tools. It is possible to hold the numbers from the outside while forcing the opposite way the face plate. I took it out using my teeth without damaging the phone. Simply use a napkin. 1. Turn off your A630 Phone.
2. Open the flap as if you were going to type. 3. WIth strong force try to remove the upper part first. once you see it unlatches do the 2 sides. (IN ORDER TO UNLATCH YOU MUST SOMEHOW PULL THE FACEPLATE FROM THE FRONT THEN PUSH IT OFF TO UNLATCH.DO THIS CAREFULLY AND DO NOT GO OVERBOARD . IT WILL UNLATCH IF YOU DO IT JUST RIGHT) Once that is done do the bottom portion, this will probably have to be done with the flap closed and with the camera button and the volume button facing you. Once all all 4 sides have been unlatched remove the face plate from the last part it was unlatched.
Do this carefully and have patience. it is not easy at all.
