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?

@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.

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. ?
