ID: 72913

Description: This guide consists of instructions on how to...

Steps:

1. Remove the two bottom Pentalobe screws next to the 30-Pin connector.
2. It is recommended that you use a small 5-Point screwdriver for this process.
3. Remember to make sure your iPhone is fully turned off before commencing this process, to prevent serious injury to the phone.

4. Push the back panel towards the top of the iPhone. Doing this should allow the back panel to slide off safely.
5. Do not apply too much pressure to the back. Especially if your phone has a cracked back panel.
6. Do not rush it! Time is key.

7. Remove these two screws that are securing the battery connector to the Logic Board.
8. Beware of unscrewing the battery connector, as your screwdriver does have the possibility to slip and pierce the battery.
9. For the bottom screws, it is recommended that you use a 1.5 mm screw bit, and a 1.7 mm for the top screw.

10. Locate and pull the plastic tab to pull out the battery. Make sure to pry up on the outside of the battery on all sides.
11. Do not pull on the plastic tab too hard, as it can easily rip, making the battery removal process harder.

12. Carefully remove the battery.
13. Remember, if you are replacing your battery, remember to preform a hard reset on your iPhone by holding on both the home and power button for a few seconds once the repair is all finished.
