Just stick a large screwdriver in the large slot in the middle and turn it clockwise through 90 degrees - the metal catches will release the battery...

Easy !!!

I've tried that it just spins and spins. And i can't seem to figure the way the mechanism is supposed to work

Looks like you may have to break out the battery door and replace both the battery door and the lower case.
