Excellent video. Unless you do this sort of job for a living it’s not a job for the faint hearted. I set aside a morning, went slowly and carefully and it took me a full four hours. Wife not totally happy and told me I should have taken it to one of those cheap mobile shops that are springing up everywhere. A few comments for anyone else attempting it:
1. The two standoff connectors holding in the battery at 4:55 need a different tool than the rest. I used a small flat head screwdriver, ground down to make it fit in the very shallow slot, but I expect the real tool is supposed to be some sort of special cross head thing.
2. There are four adhesive strips under the battery. Three of mine snapped but the fourth came out, which was just as well because it would have been almost impossible if I couldn’t have slid something under it. I used a small plastic scraper and heated from the back to work it free. This actually made removing the haptic engine, speaker etc. a waste of time as the battery extraction was all done from the other end.
3. I used strips of double sided tape on a piece of card to hold all the screws and other parts as I did not have a magnetic tray. There are a lot of screws and many different types and lengths so it is important to be systematic. They are fiddly to handle and I used a combination of the Y-shaped tool which was magnetic and the Phillips which wasn’t to move them into position.
4. I’m 68 so close up vision not what it was when I was a kid. I have a cheap head mounted pair of magnifier lenses which is fantastic for jobs like this. If your vision is less than perfect you’re going to need some help like this.
Everything worked when I’d finished. Apparently the procedure is to charge to 100% and keep charging for two more hours, then run it until it dies, then fully charge again. Try explaining that to a wife that is already in severe withdrawal and needs to go out immediately! You’re also going to have to explain that the really unhelpful battery warning message goes away after a couple of weeks. Thanks for that Apple.

Fantastic tutorial. Easy to follow. The color coding was intuitive making it simple to know which tool to use. Much appreciated

[@markaffleck4622]

I have watched a lot of your tutorials and I think they are very good. In particular I like the colour highlighting of the different screw types, along with the sizes of each one.

No. I did not have fun. No, sir... not at all!!! For some damn reason, I could not get those little buggers on the last 3 plates back on. Took me, oh, maybe 3 hours. Dropped a couple of those really short bois on the floor when they went flying off the screw bit. Every speck of soil on my hardwood floor looked just like a screw. Hope my husband's phone is fully functional. So far, so good. It turned on and the screen and sound works, at least!! I told him, "NEVER AGAIN! You take your cheap ass down to AT&T or Wal-Mart next time and buy a new damn phone!!" The OEM adhesive tabs broke, the adhesive broke. I got one piece perfectly removed, the rest just kept falling apart!! Finally had to heat and pry. His battery has been needing replaced for over a year now, so the adhesive was probably just heat fixed and aged. 0/10 would not recommend. Just take it to a battery store and let some guy do it for 60 bucks. And yes, I was using the appropriate sized screw bits and type for each screw. I have a 72 piece bit set for small electronics, so that wasn't the issue. The screws just didn't want to sit on the bits the way they were supposed to. Thanks for the video nonetheless! Couldn't have done it without you!

Yup! Definitely a lot more tricky than my iPhone 6S was. You’ve gotta feel some sense of satisfaction when it turned on again at the end though? 😀
