Disassembling iphones is a complete nightmarew
it's not worth it
They're glued down
Get a proper precision kit
Even with the right tools
it fucking sucks
t. person who's tried it
ifixit has guides
No doubt but if your phone is dead either you sell it or fix it
But you have to be SO careful because the screen and digitizer are wafer thin and spiderweb really fast.
just gonna replace the battery
I tried repairing an original iPhone2G before and it suuuucks; otoh, the 5 and 5s are extremely serviceable
it's an iphone 5
Yes, but replacing the whole battery means taking the whole thing apart.
No
Battery is easy to get to
Screen is not
Huh. Let me see.
iPhone 5 is just undo two screws , remove back cover and you have access to the battery
Probably
Actually
Servicing i-products is suffering
You have to remove one piece of metal with 3 screws
It's been years so
Forgive if my memory is shit
well i might aswell try when i get the tools
Also, at least it's doable
rrrr
angery
i am angery
either i get a phone with a possibly working battery that i can give away or sell
If the battery was soldered down or something it would be fucking retarded
or it stays broken
Does the power button work on it
Those always fail on the 5's
well the whole phone works but the battery is terrible
shuts down after 10 min or so
Just be patient the first time you remove the cover
Use soft plastic tools
