A look at Tile's small new tracker

Use a spudger or flathead screwdriver to remove the outer ring
-
I removed the rubber button cover as well, but this is not necessary.

-
Use a flathead screwdriver to pry the two halves of the case apart from each other
-
The technique I used is to find a small hole in the casing and use a very small flathead screwdriver with upward/downward force.

I’m glad I was not the only one who tried this, but you had much more success than me. We used to use ours for the remote to the TV which gets lost often and then the battery died and I refused to believe it was not user replaceable. Unfortunately I didn’t have much luck actually getting past step 1 since the two halves staunchly refused to come apart. So I murdered it in frustration and threw it in the bin.
Yep, mine lasted a little less than 2 years. The key to getting the two casing halves apart is to use a really small flathead screwdriver and put it in one of the holes in the casing, then start pushing downwards.

So I got it open, desoldered the battery, resoldered a new one - and it turns on and beeps with a double tap… doesn’t ack its location, can’t be dinged from the app… can’t activate it because it says it’s already activated (duh) - but it’s been off for > 760 days according to Tile. Pretty sure they have a “drop dead” condition or some ultimate expiration date on the ones with soldered batteries (this forcing you to get new ones). AirTags for me from now on (I just wish they were louder)
Scratch that! After repeatedly clicking - it’s now working again… huzzah!
Glad to hear you had success in replacing the battery inside your Tile Sticker!
