    Yeah it looks like those screws have been stripped...where did you buy it? Looks like someone may have tampered with it!!!!

    take a old screwdriver you dont need and a bit of superglue and put a lil superglue on the end of the screwdriver and stick in on the stripped screw and hold it there for about 5 minutes, then just take out the stripped screw

    Yes someone has stripped the screws and probably used some tool to still be able to open it.
    Did you get the phone used?

    Last night when opening up my i4, I noticed that the screws look tinier than the 3G/3Gs...some of them at least...Bottom line, if you buy screwdrivers, look for a #00 size philips or as close to one as possible. I had to go thru 4 different ones I have in my tool kit until I found the right size.

    If you think getting the screws off the back are tiny, wait until you get inside...


    Good luck & keep us posted
