iPhone 2G battery replacement
If you ever wanted to see how you can change your iPhone 2G’s battery, this video will help show you how. Please be aware that opening your iPhone will void your warranty, and when you solder the battery doing so incorrectly can result in the battery blowing up. However, with time, patience and preparation, I think a person with basic soldering skills can do this job themselves. So keep reading and watching iPhone Life www.iphonelife.com

Thanks for the video! Just sucessfully did the process. It’s scary, but doable even for a beginner (like me).
Tips: a) Place a non-conductive tape on the red cable to avoid short-circuit. b) Touching metal with the red cable won’t blow everything up, but you should avoid it. c) To open the metal back, follow the video, the method he uses works great. d) The original battery has a strong glue, be careful on removing it (just try not to pull so hard, to avoid breaking connectors). e)? Good luck!
@iPhoneLifevideoblog i have de-attached the white wire from the motherboard (not on the battery but the white wire which leads from? the right hand side of the phone), how do i put it back on??
im not so sure if my battery is? fryed because mine turns on but when the apple sign show up it shows a loading sign and doesnt load i even left it on for exactly 24hrs please help

I believe you fried your motherboard, because, if you leave your solder close to the motherboard for a while, it can heat up quickly, and ruin it. It happened to me, accidents? happen.
I lost the red soldering? point, any ideas?
Not to mention I had just spent $50 on parts to refurbish the phone.?
I spent 10 hours and 300 dollars on a new state of the? art soldering iron (both of my old ones were pretty bad) and it broke the iron. Never do this! Hire a professional! At first I got a white screen, and soon it went to blank.

Noobs? might use to much heat, damageing the battery
@iPhoneLifevideoblog
You forgot some points.
1. The original battery is GLUED ULTRA STRONG to the phone.
I was very careful but while applying force, I ripped out the black cable + soldering point from pcb.
A. cut cables B. unstick battery.
2. I soldered the cables the OTHER way. Touching ground with red(+) cable won’t do anything
Then white(soc) and last black(ground).
After plugging it in I works again.

I paid 20 euros to a? guy and he replaced it for me. Now it works Fine!
Yes i am pissed at apple too.
A normal phone or organizer has a user? friendly battery.
Thanks to this video I will replace the battery and then sell my iphone and never buy anything from crapple again
You are the baby.
I’d like to see your face if a cheap replacement lipoly battery explodes? and spews it contens into it.
Id recommend to cut the old wires and to solder the new wires to the old ones. that is easier for beginners.
then insulate the wires and your good to go.
hey, when you said you needa tin the new battery? lead, what do you mean?thankz btw
i’ve damaged iphone when i tried to open it. this case is? totally stupid…

how do u SOLDER the battery wires? I have like glue everywhere on it and its messed up and I have some wires stickin out (a rly thin and? tiny one) and its rly ahrd to plug them in HELP
damn this iphone battery, I own it for just 2 years and now is? DEAD apple screwed us royally..
thanks for the tutorial!! i did this job in 30 minutes start? to finish, easier job then i thought! thank you!!
Generally I’d agree it’s safe to solder a battery. However most people watching these video posts are not experienced and do not realize how much heat a battery can suck up very quickly, Li-ion Polymer batteries do have a reputation for catching on fire and bursting, how much energy one must put into the battery is of debate, but I’d rather be safe than sorry with my video posts. ?
lmao whata big baby * uhoh ot might blow um be very careful* its? not gonna blow up
@shayman1337 @shayman1337 The leads coming off the battery and attached to the mother board must be, from left to right, in this order; red white, black. That is the only way the iPhone will power up or charge. If you have the battery connected right and it’s still not charging, there’s a good chance the ribbon cable which runs under the battery is either unclipped or not fully clipped into the mother board or it’s dead, in which case? it would need to be replaced. That is very delicate work.
I have a car charger and when I plug into that the iPhone powers and tries to charge. The phone thinks it has full power (the power meter says full idk why), but once I unplug the phone from the charger it immediately dies. I think the battery? isn’t doing any thing. Do you think it’s a good idea to desolder the connections and then resolder in the right order?
