With the S22 FE cancelled, I really don't know what I could upgrade to, and unfortunately my battery is finally on its last leg now. Thank you for this video, I think instead of buying a new phone, I'll just replace the battery on my OP6. It's actually quite easy compared to most recent phones it seems. Plus, my OP6 is still running great on Android 10, so the investment should be worth it.

[@EricWitrigs]

Replacing the battery is the best upgrade for your phone.

[@HazewinDog]

@@EricWitrigs I am trying to replace the battery now, but it seems that no matter how much heat I use (I was basically burning my hands on the entire phone now), the glue just won't budge. In the video from iDoc Europe EN, I can see that the back cover is magically lifted after applying heat... making it very easy to slide a tool in. but on my phone, I am pulling using a suction cup, but still can't get a gap even for super thin prying tools... I don't know what to do anymore... do I need to pull on the cover harder? I don't know how worried I should be about it suddenly coming loose and breaking the glass...

[@JensUhlmannOfficial]

you should give LineageOS a try, its really easy to upgrade to (was my first time flashing a custom ROM) and mine runs soo good on Android 13 now granted PayPal App and Google Wallet dont not work but my banking app (DKB, Germany) and its TAN app do. So make sure everything you need runs but android 13 (LineageOS 20) is very nice

[@actitud]

You should have mentioned that during the cleanup of the sticky band, you should be VERY careful not to push down the cover or the camera lens will separate from the back, which can't be fixed. It happened to me unfortunately.

[@Axel_O]

rip

[@marshall_nl9204]

can you elaborate in what you mean by that? having difficulty understanding what part to be careful with :)

[@actitud]

@@marshall_nl9204 Sure. The back cover of the phone has the camera lens which, like most lenses nowadays, is 2 millimeters out the surface of the cover. A step in this process tells you to remove sticky residue from inside the cover. To do that, you have to put the back cover facing up on the table. IF you push it too hard, the lens will detach from the back cover and won't look good once you put it back on. To prevent it, you can have a dip or a hole (sized to the size of the lens) on a wooden board or somethin so when you push the back cover, that won't put pressure in the lens. Hope the explanation helps.

[@actitud]

@@Axel_O It's ok. It didn't affected my pictures but from the outside, the phone doesn't look very well.

[@marshall_nl9204]

@@actitud great! thanks for the help, ill be doing a battery replacement in a couple of months when I have my new phone as this one has lasted me a good 4 years since release :)

[@roberttrifts2737]

Heat gun or a HOT hair dryer is absolutely required. A thin metal spudger is up to the task once the first corner insertion is made - which is far and away the hardest part of all of this.

[@EricWitrigs]

yes

[@buatt]

Hi, what is the difference between Custom and OEM replacements? Thanks.

[@iddqds]

i assume custom batteries won't last long

[@sashbar]

I guess these days there's no difference, since there's no OEMs any more. Even if it looks like OEM, it's just a clone.

Eka hahahah best of 2018

[@tntz06]

The hardest part is to remove the back cover. I managed to open it with hair dryer 4 min pointed at the bottom. This heats up the bottom and sides, but not the top. I opened it at the sim card slot and went down, and to the other side. Now heat the top for 3 min, so the top corners don't shatter like mine. Good luck.

[@blazorb5907]

Do we really have to heat it up?

My one plus 6 dies under 1 minute when charger is removed even if battery is at 100%. To switch on ,again I need to connect the charger and the battery percentage sometimes shows 100% but still after disconnecting the charger it gets switched off suddenly. While showing it to One plus service team they just gave my phone back after reformatting the phone saying I need to change the phone since the problem is not resolved and will require motherboard replacement which will cost more than a new phone. I am not sure if this is motherboard related problem or just a battery problem. Phone is 5 year old and never done a battery replacement. Has anybody faced this issue with one plus 6 phone?

@@rounakr94 your reckon for first time opening the phone, will I have enough adhesive left there to re use, or do I need to be prepared and buy some?

[@rounakr94]

@@rbmanb usually with oneplus phones the battery adhesive can be reapplied. But if its like the adhesive pull tabs on iPhone then you need new adhesive. Thin .5mm 3m double sided tape will be enough.

[@alvaro-ee9bz]

Bought one battery, installed, and every time i get 13%, suddenly jumps to 8% and goes down to 0 in less one minute. Already charge for 3 hours OFF, then ON another hour, clear Cache on recovery...nothing works. Using a fresh install PIE 9.0.9 with a few months. DASH/VOOC works ok. Also, the original battery says its Version 2, and this one from Witrigs version 1. Don`t know what to think about this battery.....

[@ElueeHD]

maybe calibrate battery? google it

ah man, you now need a heatgun to replace the battery? oh well at least it still has the 3.5mm so I'm still getting this model instead of the newer ones.

[@EricWitrigs]

You need the heat gun to soften the adhesive for the battery cover.

[@voiceoftreason1760]

@@EricWitrigs can you do it with a hairdryer?

[@scruffykl]

@@voiceoftreason1760 Almost certainly - I've done about six screen/battery replacements using a hairdryer and it has always worked fine. Just might take a bit longer than with a heat gun.

[@rbmanb]

@@scruffykl Nice. I'll give it a try. Any other tips for beginners? Do I need all the rest of the tools as shown in the video, including that flat thing to help and flatten the adhesive?

[@scruffykl]

@@rbmanb most battery replacement kits come with the basic tools which should do you. Otherwise the double suction cup tool that is used to pry open the screen from the back is also useful. Otherwise take your time and work in a clear area so you don't lose the tiny screws! Good luck

[@RUMPshit]

Hello, I replaced my battery on a oneplus 6 and now the battery percentage is glitchy. When i fully charge the phone to 100%, after an hour it drops to 1% and then stays there for the rest of the day. Sometimes when i reboot, the percentage changes to 1% or 100% too. Anyone has any ideas why or how to fix it? Thanks you

[@nagekun]

You'll need to calibrate your battery. Google will help you with this. Generally just completely drain your battery to 0% to let it die. Plug it into the charger without turning it on. Let it charge to 100%. Then turn the phone on. Make sure it says you have 100%.

[@abdallahabid102]

Did you use an original battery?

[@leonardorenzi2861]

Pro tip: use a 1 A charger or a USB port if you only charge it once a day during bedtime

[@andreicristian1625]

@vishwash saxena by not using dash charge you actually protect the battery and it will last longer without needing replacing

[@HazewinDog]

I've been doing that for 48 months now :) I think that's why the battery has lasted this long, but it's finally degrading now, so I think I have to replace it this year!

@3GenGames Well, i'm using my V20 3rd year in a row, hard to believe oneplus 6 will hold up to V20's standards. Also the extended battery(10 000 mAh) i installed on my v20 improves the life of the battery in one use with 200% and now i recharge my phone 2 or 3 times in a week. Haha.
