[@JenniferNeal-ox9zy]

Thank you. A good explanation. Much appreciated.

[@bobsherry4823]

Thanks for the video. This was clear and concise. I used a Dyson hair dryer to apply heat around the edges of the ipad to soften the glue and the usual phone battery changing tools to separate screen and back . The whole process was straightforward thanks to your video guide.

[@DIYGeardo]

Glad it helped! Thanks

[@VH-yg8rx]

Followed this video and ended up using hair dryer instead bc didn’t have the heating pad. By far the hardest part was getting the screen off and I ended up watching another video that said to use a razor blade as a starting point. Unfortunately, this did leave some minor traces at the point where you pray things open but I now have a functional iPad, without a completely dead battery. The other part that was very difficult was getting the battery off and that definitely needed a lot of elbow grease. Otherwise it all worked out!

[@hweilow2801]

thanks for the video, clearly i would spend some money and get it done by someone

[@DIYGeardo]

Thanks for your feedback

[@mickqld3003]

Thanks! I used my Mothers old medical heat pad. Maybe it was a bit under 70 deg, but it softened the adhesive enough to carefully do the job. I also used plastic paint scraper, which I sharpened a bit on the concrete outside, to scoop the battery out.

[@1jedcaleb]

Very resourceful!! Good job!!!!!!

[@1jedcaleb]

Really I understood him just fine. A very good tutorial! TY!!

[@DIYGeardo]

Thanks for sharing your feedback...

[@deathstrike8992]

Great video, nice and clear.

[@DIYGeardo]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@ZulfikarSha]

To start it up myself, I need the gear. Would appreciate if anybody can help me get all the necessary equipments or to name them atleast. Thanks

[@edwinpaida6006]

Hi nice video , I want to know what kind of battery I have to buy or what battery you recommend me

[@DIYGeardo]

Hard for me to recommends a batterySince i do not know your location. Geardo one is good if you are in UK or AU

[@jillanneira]

Hi. What kind of adhesive did you use on the back of battery?

[@DIYGeardo]

You can use battery adhesive.. if not double sided tape strips..few pieces will be enough..

[@ddylan4cats]

If the battery health for an iPad mini 4 is below 75% percent, is recommended to change the battery?

[@DIYGeardo]

i mean if you can handle the work, then let it use for some time and then get it replaced..

[@jjjjjjjjjjjinnnn2323]

is it impossible to open this device without using heat mat or blow dryer? I'm planning to do this on my own. Since I have a bit of experience in replacing a battery of my mac and repairing my old iphone. But I do not have something like the heat pad or blower. Thank you for your help and for sharing this video!

[@DIYGeardo]

Possible, but it will be very hard. You need to use a pry tool to cut the adhesive. Process may take long, but i will not recommend. You can use a hair dryer

[@DIYGeardo]

One more thing, DO not remove the screen without heating. You will end up with breaking the screen. You MUST apply heat to remove it. Unless the screen is already broke

[@jjjjjjjjjjjinnnn2323]

@@DIYGeardo I understand. Thank you so much for your reply. I will take note of this in the future. I’ll probably just borrow a hair blower and also research more about this repair. ☺️

[@matthewgaige3133]

Thank you for showing. I could not understand what you said about how to adhere the screen at the end. Do I need a adhesive kit?

[@DIYGeardo]

Sorry about that, Well you need to apply adhesive to the screen, you can use b7000 . Pre cut double-sided ipad mini adhesive or Regular double sided adhesive stripes. Personally i prefer b7000.

[@1jedcaleb]

Double sided tape

[@jeocarrillo8656]

Does it matter what kind of glue I use? Im asking in case I need to change the battery again later on.

[@DIYGeardo]

For the screen or battery?

[@song02161]

영상은 너무 엄청 쉽게 교체를 하는데 내가 하면 안될것 같은데? 그런데 데우는 온도는 몇도정도 되야 할까요?

[@DIYGeardo]

60c for about 1-2 minutes around the screen. And then 30-40 seconds intervals

[@MrPreacha82]

When trying this process there was a ribben next to camera under the screen. Have you seen this? How do i remove?

[@DIYGeardo]

Can you timestamp in our video ?

[@carlopecson]

Does the ipad mini 4 and mini 5 share the same battery?

[@DIYGeardo]

No it is not.

[@salvorojohnreya.1719]

Hi there! Can i use A1546 Battery as a replacement for A1538 Battery?

[@DIYGeardo]

Yeah , you can. It is for iPad Mini 4

[@charlesscobb]

I just put a new battery in my iPad 4. But now, the screen is garbled and about a third of it looks like I spilled black ink on it. Can you enlighten me as to what happened and how I can fix it?

[@luisgjegji9766]

Maybe you damaged the screen while removing it

[@E.Bandier]

🎉

[@DIYGeardo]

Thanks 🙏

[@JayseGreene]

I could not understand anything he was saying.

[@DIYGeardo]

Thanks for your feedback , follow the time stamps for the steps or cc for the text.

[@tomphillips3836]

I agree, these folks are quite technically competent, but the english annunciation leaves a lot to be desired. May I suggest running the directions through AI and using that track for the audio.

[@mr.roboto7330]

I could barely understand half of what you said. Your accent is too strong.

[@DIYGeardo]

You can use the subtitles (CC) , it has the script

[@deathstrike8992]

Maybe it is your hearing buddy, it was clear as it needs to be.

[@hefeadoy8389]

I did this on mute. Stop being weird

[@1jedcaleb]

What?? My hearing is not great and I could understand every word. TY for the well explained tutorial.
