I know this is old and the phone is definitely old, but I use it for testing on Apple stuff. My battery pooched and I was able to replace it with some patience thanks to your video!

So i just replace my iphone battery before watching this i fry my battery heavily then throw it and i watch it burn 😂😅

Followed your video. Super helpful! Before replacing the battery i plugged in and tested like your video show and got a Touch ID message. Hit ok as you showed in the video and proceeded the install. After installing and putting it all back, boot up and got the same message again. But this time the Touch ID doesn’t work at all. What could be the cause?

can you do a video on battery replacement for iPhone 14?

thank you

After replacing the battery, does the phone lose its water resistance?

Why does touch ID not work after this install?

Thanks dude! Really helped

Great video👍. As mentioned, make sure to keep note of the screws as you disassemble the phone. There is one longer screw amongst the 4 that secures the shield cover for the battery/ screen ribbon cable connectors. For those unaware during disassembly, the longer screw is located in the screw hole nearest to the RHS edge (RHS) of the phone screen removed at 5:50.

Wow best guide but my phonr now doesnt work lol

Im the only one here is 2024

TOO COMPLICATED AND DANGEROUS. I BOUGHT A NEW MODEL AND RECYCLED THE 7.

Excellent The Best

Thank you so much!! Took me 3.5 hours and 4 fingernails to get the job done but done it is! I put it off for a long time because I was so intimidated. But, I’m a retired Optician so small bits and pieces don’t bother me, and it was time to straighten my backbone. Getting through the old seal was the biggest hurdle, 1 hour at least doing battle. I have a heat gun and was very leery of heating anything too much. But for every mm of advancement breaking the seal I was hitting it with the heat gun. You saved me 100’s of dollars. Thanks again.

I replaced the battery in mine,never touched the home button, when I put everything back, the home button doesn’t work, why?

Thank you. Just replaced my kid's iPhone 7 battery, and the process went smoothly thanks to your tutorial. For people doing it for the first time: 1) if using a hair dryer, don't hesitate to do it a lot. I did 2 minutes at first, it wasn't enough, had to do a second pass before I could see "results". In total I did 8 minutes of hair dryer around the whole phone, 4 passes of 2 minutes each 2) there are "suction cups" you can buy online, with a handle, and suction cups on both sides that really help applying the right amount of force when opening the screen. Not sure I'd have been able to go through the initial steps without that. Opening the screen really is the hard part. Once that's done, following the steps and paying attention is enough. As others have said, there are tons of tutorials on how to replace batteries but this one really had all the good details, critical for beginners! (including how to put it back)

where have u gone

Thank u so much this helped me replace the battery easily with your instructions

THIS WHOLE VIDEO IS A BIG ADVERTISEMENT ! STOP IT

Please suggest should I buy battery in apple authorised store or another brand outside

Very good!!!

Very useful video. Thank you for posting.

Hi I saw in the minute 12:20 you used new tapes strips, but where can I buy them? thanks?

Very very useful, tho i failed with the screws and messed up my touch and LCD screen, but learnt a lot. Thanks!

Am I the only one here in 2023

My time stamps are not intended as a shortcut. You have to watch the entire video! The time stamps are for repeated, multiple viewings, to ensure I don’t miss anything.

thank you!

I watched several different videos on KZbin on how to replace the battery of an iPhone 7 Plus. This one was by far the clearest and the most helpful, which is why I ended following your instructions and suggestions to actually replace the battery. (The replacement was successful 😉💪). So thank you very much for making such a good tutorial!

Great video but no coverage of the glue replacement

This is a helpful video but I think that the adhesive strips should be placed on the battery so when the adhesive is folded over, it sticks to the battery like the original strips were installed.

when you put the replacement battery on, you did not connect. you just flipped the top. does that connection need to be snapped in? thanks

Making use of the kzbin.infoUgkxcJ22tnHH9l1vjdIdEIG27iOG55P7LXI8 reconditioning plan, I just saved 2 auto batteries from being completely junked. The guides were very simple to follow. I wish I would have found this years ago! You may use the guide to recondition any battery type

I think its a joke that after paying like 800 for a phone you have to do all this just to change the battery... why not just let us change the battery like with a tv remote control

HOW DID YOU REMOVE THE GLUE SO EASLY!!??!?!!!! I EVEN HEATED IT UP BUT IT IS STILL TEARING AND I CAN'T GET THE BATTERY OUT 😭😔😔😔😔

Removing all those upper connectors is a recipe for disaster. I use a metal, 90d bookend with an elastic band to hold the screen up vertically at 90d. I only need to remove the battery plate. I then warm the phone with a wheat pack heated in the microwave, then slowly, the battery can be leveraged out using a flat edge.

I followed through your guide, and after completing battery replacement - i still get the error "Unable to activate Touch ID on this iPhone" like u did in kzbin.info/www/bejne/nmitlaF9gp2aja8 Then i realized you skipped the recording to hide this error after completing your battery replacement. Sigh.. done unsubscribe.

Uk link broken

Thanks for the amazing video. I changed my battery but now my home button is not working 😞 does anyone know why?

thanks. the hardest part for me was removing the battery. the adhesive is really tricky to pull out cleanly. i messed up both of them and it was a real bitch to remove. the factory battery is now bent slightly from trying to pry it out. it all worked out in the end tho

Hello I just change the battery and my home button doesn’t work at all.did this happen to any of you?

What size is the pentalobe screwdriver?

Thank you so much for this tutorial. It helped me a lot. The biggest struggle was to open the cover and remove the battery because the tapes both got torn. I almost gave up! Then I dropped the tiny screw twice and couldn't find it. Well, I spent the whole afternoon changing the battery but I made it! :D (a proud woman here)

This was a very helpful tutorial and I followed it to safely and correctly change my old battery for a replacement new one, thanks very much for posting.

bro the kit i got only has tweezers and a plastic pry tool I legit can't get it open.

You were awesome. Thank you so much for not going too fast or too slow and teaching in such detail.

Nice and concise Video with great tips! Do I have to remove the Taptic Engine to remove the hold down strips from beneath the battery? Like to leave that attached like the display screen.

The best step by step of them all. Thank you.
