iPhone 7 Plus Battery Replacement-How To

[@mEtAlMaNiAc787]

remember back in the day when you could just pull the back cover off your Samsung

[@yahjewfire]

Hell yeah!😂

[@justme7410]

mEtAlMaNiAc787 how I wish it was like back then but welp...CAPITALISM!

[@abbasplayz5097]

Those were the real days man......

[@aloha4eva]

worked perfectly! Didn't use heat...just pried it open with the adhesive still intact. Scary moments but it worked

[@nvgwd3r]

Ok I'm sorry but this seems way too scary for my little heart to handle

[@jackonno78]

This isn't a video on how to replace the battery this is how to remove it.

[@gamingforcheesecake3668]

you're stupid if you can't just do it in reverse

[@Jobidenwakeup]

mr jackonno78 is right

[@daveycrockett9447]

GamingForCheesecake Not necessarily there could be something very specific with putting the adhesive strips back in. Don’t make an assumptions. There’s always hidden gotchas with technology

[@gregh7457]

if you can't put adhesive strips in without a video tutorial, then you shouldn't be opening your iphone to work on it

[@kylerebman5094]

@@gamingforcheesecake3668 that's not the point. The video title and what the video shows are two different things

[@jbrouss7560]

I recommend doing this outside in the rain to kinda set the mood!!😎

[@ChilangoDios333]

your video says replacement... it's missing the replace part where you go over installing a new battery with battery adhesive and screen adhesive... half the video is missing....

[@LOSTBHOY88]

00sevensargent- I’m not sure why every single comment isn’t what you just said lol... you’d be f*cked if you were following the guide then all of a sudden you can’t put the fone back together again 😂

[@Beestung37]

Decent video, but a bit rushed, and obviously doesn't cover the re-assembly, but just do things in reverse. I just replaced the battery on my iPhone 7 plus successfully. Took me a little bit to get the top part of the screen off, as it seems to have a plastic lip along the top, so it doesn't just pop up and off. It cannot be overstated to be careful with the loose screws - they are crazy small. And on at least two parts, one of the screws is bigger than the others, so you have to keep them straight. One of mine got lost in the phone for 10-15 minutes and I used a needle and magnet to fish it out. Also, wait to reconnect the battery *last* after the screen reconnect. I didn't do this, and while it didn't cause any issues, supposedly it can cause components to die. Overall, it took me about 45 minutes to replace the battery, but that was due to the screw that tried to go AWOL. You have to be good with tiny, tiny, tiny parts. If I had to do this again, I would try to do it without removing the screen, but that seems risky with the delicate screen cables.

[@skoolynugenator1802]

Dear lord I will just pay the 50 bucks for a new battery and install from a professional.

[@itsmrlonewolf]

What happened to the days when you could just, you know, swap the battery in about 3 seconds! I deserve to become a certified Apple technician if I can compete this! The only reason it’s this complicated is because Apple realised that the battery is just about the only consumable item in the phone and they could make even more money if they bolt half the phone over the top of it so most people pay to get it done when there’s absolutely no reason why you shouldn’t be able to just pop the back off and take the battery out!

[@user-cy2iq1gl1t]

Ok now for step 341. Take the discobob and dialate the rebo plate and put your left hand on yellow.

[@Appleblade]

In other words, don't change your iPhone 7 plus battery.

[@Deathsdezire]

The last few steps arent necessary. You can just use your tweezers and grab the tabs for the battery adhesive. You only need to take it that far apart if your adhesive tears and you cant get the end of it anymore.

[@hanniffydinn6019]

Does it destroy water proofing ?

[@owenlee9173]

my question too

[@owen100140]

Hanniffy Dinn No

[@hanniffydinn6019]

***** Doesn't even look waterproof, thought it has some seal you had to remove... confusing....

[@ajayvora4127]

yes it does. waterproofing depends on the adhesive under the screen.

[@oktosite_]

Don't lie to people. This will absolutely kill the waterproofing.

[@TerriLeeHolm]

You can ruin the home button by over tightening the bottom two screws when you put it back together. Next time you might wanna walk people through putting it back together so you can tell people this. Now I have to watch another video on how to replace the home button, but it won’t be your video.

[@likethiscomment.4802]

Why are you removing half of the phone? You don’t need to remove Taptic Engine or anything. ALSO you can NEVER get the strips out the way she removed them. You don’t need to heat the phone up. Use tweezers, as your pulling the strip out wrap the strip around the tweezer. Pull, twist, pull twist. Man i can’t wait to make a KZbin channel on how to PROPERLY fix iPhones.

[@justme7410]

I’m just go to the repair shop after quarantine, thanks

[@nickapatricio5250]

Hi, i just want to ask if im gonna change my battery for my Iphone7plus, Do you think it will have a problem with the performance of the phone? or not?

[@cristian5693]

Is a lot of work, I think I’m better take it to the shop lol

[@TonyyStarrkk1994]

I did this today. I didn’t have any new adhesive, so I took some silicone caulk and carefully lined it around the edge with a toothpick 👀 it’s working so far (I’m typing on the phone) but we’ll see how it holds up. Not that I would recommend it, I think silicone caulk is acidic so you’ll have to be very careful. Also there’s no guaranteeing the waterproofing worked

[@dellmanofme1]

Damn people already swapping batteries? I haven't even got the phone yet

[@infiniteblue895]

Idk why apple just doesn't put a special screw to take the back off and you can replace the battery right away like an Android???

[@TheMaan2008]

I might have screwed up. Just the screen part I guess! I opened it from the top! Not the book way/flip

[@euniceex22]

damn i did the same thing. You just need a screen replacement

[@loopster3350]

At 2:01 when I'm removing the screws there are 2 that won't come off or twist I am using the right screwdriver

[@gemsbadilla8414]

Does it still water resistant ? When repaired ?

[@kevinwilson6786]

I sure am glad I did not purchase a battery. Once you remove the old battery - then no need for a battery any longer apparently. I think they forgot the second half of the video. lmao

[@ramigirgis8984]

You guys are the best. Very detailed and practical videos. Parts and tools are also of great quality. Thank You!

[@jasonv9202]

I like how the website claims it take 30min - 2 hours to complete but they show us in less than 4 minutes. 😂 I guarantee my adhesive strips all break off half way through their removal. 🤣😂

[@shaikmunasar9598]

nice dude its parrfact vodeo ever big fan from india

[@RA6162]

This video was n ot about replacing the battery. It was about taking the old battery out ! lol

[@kokusimasima2634]

And how you do you put everything back? 🙆🏻‍♀️

[@s.o793]

Kokusima Sima you just repeat but backwards...

[@SV-hs4ci]

Wow not complicated at all 🤦🏾‍♀️😂

[@jasonvicente3712]

Where can i buy the replacement battery, also replacement speakers ?

[@crossforced]

what a personality

[@TheYaq]

can you add a bigger battery to it?

[@loadright]

It didnt look like the different cables around the sides of the battery had to be removed.

[@currykatsudon27]

well i did my 6s battery replacement once, never turn your phone on while replacing it because mine was sabotaged by the battery electricity lol

[@SilverScarletSpider]

Thank you Gwen!

[@estidi]

This video is just several steps away from being a complete teardown.

[@karek7945]

Thanks for create this video, more funcional

[@mactastic144]

They made it look really easy to lift the display after heating the adhesive.

[@mikec5000]

Does replacement battery don't turn off itself

[@triplebug1514]

U literally could just pull the adhesive strips without taking out your Taptic engine

[@va5715]

yes but there is more chance for them strips to tear with the engine in place.

[@slbynum]

Yep all you really need to do is disconnect the ribbon cable that the battery is attached to. Very unnecessary to remove the screen or the Taptic Engine.

[@andrewbuildwell]

Thank you 😉

[@francisngannouhaircut2616]

Good video but i wont even attempt to try this

[@jenniferwilson9579]

Too scary, but thank you!

[@drileacristi8348]

Will a heat gun work as well?

[@PSDeep]

where to PURSCHASE NEW BATTERY

[@johnburkoton2892]

Where do you get good iPhone battery? So far every battery I got for iPhone was garbage. It would not hold a charge or make the phone act up.

[@ninjababy1997]

After watching this video I've decided to go back to Samsung.

[@Marketing4me1965]

So far this is the only negative with my phone I have found.

[@luissalazar2289]

Can someone please Tell Me the new Battery tripoint screw size please

[@wicho99w99]

Ifixit one question, I'm looking to get the iPhone 7 plus battery kit I see in the description that it comes with display adhesive, how do i put the adhesive in? Is it a strip like the battery one or is it different ?

[@ysbzone3498]

Nice job

[@xxnike0629xx]

I wonder why Apple made it so difficult. Couldn't they build in the ability to swap out batteries and maybe go with micro SD memory cards?

[@oktosite_]

I work in phone repair and am confronted with many iPhone users every day. Letting many of these people service their own phones would cause Apple more headaches than it's worth. Swappable batteries also affect the look (Apple is very focused on looks) and the durability (Apple would sell less phones) of these phones. Not to mention the waterproofing.

[@RO_Dani3l]

xxnike629xx sd cards are not secure and most of them are also slow and unreliable

[@i42e]

+oKtosiTe Almost seems like he was trolling, but you gave a really accurate and kind answer eitherway. Thanks for that!

[@CrizzyCrazy]

Like Dany said, Apple is big on privacy and security. It's much more difficult to open an iPhone and find the memory chip and then somehow read the encryption than it is to take out someones SD card and be on your way.

[@alohifernandez216]

You lost me at the tools needed

[@asfakhussain2159]

Oh maaaaaaay goddddddddddd u really unique mechanic may god bless u I love you so much mam

[@SHIVGORIGAMING]

Fix my iPhone 7 plus battery plz

[@markanthonychiu1088]

You're in a rush

[@DylanPlaysMC1]

do they explode too?

[@Sir_J4ck]

today I changed my Iphone battery, and it just does not work, THe phone keeps rebooting over and over, and it does not charge. It can’t be the battery because I changed 3 and it only works with the battery I had before What did I do wrong?

[@jimcatx3090]

I just let it sit in the sun for 15 min in the summer and came right off I wish they make a upgraded battery they suck

[@reetsinghsaini8422]

very nice

[@officialOGd]

I have 2 red iPhone 7 Plus I wanna switch the batteries will that work?

[@matts5124]

Yes but why can't you just buy a new one or sell your old iPhone.. Theres no point

[@TheBeatdownBros]

Have to do this for an old friend. Thank you

[@vlee489]

Boom, another none bites the dust

[@auxmike]

NO need to remove the screen OR the engine! Just more work and higher risk of losing screws or damaging the phone 📱

[@saldanajr43]

auxmike true. Just be careful not to tear the flex cable of the screen. Not necessary removing it.

[@timcapell]

30min later heading to apple store for a new phone.

[@MrLegoObie]

how to remove android battery; 1. take off back of phone and whack the battery out. 2....thats all...?

[@richard200923322]

wendy williams you mean like on the note 7 or the galaxy s 7 or the one plus 3.

[@MrLegoObie]

i suppose thats only for the androids i've come in contact with

[@MrLegoObie]

***** i dont get the big deal? i explained how to take out most android batteries as a joke.

[@zaidchalabi1599]

LG does and also have SD memory card its remarkable phone EXCEPT few months into using it and it just shutsdown and wont start again LOL

[@0802turtleman]

Tom ya but then you have a shitty android phone. There is the iPhone and then everything else.

[@survivaldude29]

having to pay that much money to take it apart is almost not worth it because I am a 12 year old kid

[@luise.6159]

Enseñen también cómo reemplazar la batería del Galaxy Note 7.

[@gudelauneee]

The Problem is you can't purchase apple batteries. So you have to go to apple to get a New one 🤷‍♂️

[@phcuckser]

Just unclip the batter clip?! I dont understand why its necessary to remove the whole screen and the lil engine! (and whoevers about to reply with 'static electricity traveling through the screws and brackets', spare me.)

[@MsAlone9x]

Aint nobody got time for that. I will bring my iphone to repair service for changing or replacing parts. It will save lots of time of my life. LUL.

[@stephen714a]

Don't bet on it. I just got my iPhone 7 plus back from the Apple store in Philadelphia and so far the screen protector is a mess and definitely needs to be replaced. I don't know what they did but this was on perfectly and now looks useless. I just hope there are no new weak points that will break. The new battery has exactly the identical amount of charge showing as the battery that was in the phone to start with. I don't trust a company like Apple at all.

[@unknownuser954]

bruh i just did it and it made my homebutton stop working not happy at all

[@0802turtleman]

You rushed why? Why did you not show how to reassemble the phone. 1 out of 5 stars.

[@tevitakolikata3350]

Download this video and and play it from end to start

Already ??? That's your aPple for ya ! XD

Good but why you always focusing on iPhone teardown some other phone

[@ruden64]

Welp, looks like I’m going to Best Buy.

[@amethystsmith3523]

[@itskyleeeeeee]

Where is my iOpener?

[@michaelcarr5293]

Easy plus you dont need to remove the screen.

[@00emex]

hopefully last!

[@Mohanadeva]

Namaskar Clear instructions Thank you!

[@shay8934]

Do it in reverse

[@ghernandez6899]

And the rest..?

[@zikkicharade]

This is so difficult and complicated

[@scottschmucker5622]

Oh. It’s really just that simple, huh? Face palm

[@markbungay757]

Looks like the screen will broke in one wrong move

[@norxcontacts]

I'm not messing with the 7's.

[@daveycrockett9447]

Useless video- half baked. So it’s not a video on how to fully replace the battery but only just to remove it- so what useful purpose does that serve. Wow - I feel empowered- now I know how to remove my battery- so I can walk around with a paperweight iphone with no battery.

[@EvilEyeSun]

No way. I will either pay someone to do it or get a battery case.

[@telebrostv8407]

Guys PLEASE HELP ME OUT !!! I've dropped my iPhone 7 plus and it opened between the back antenna lines and the other part. Now first of all the "glue" that makes the parts waterproof is gone , and second of all I dont know what to do. PLEASE HELP ME OUT

Yo why tf they make it so hard why not just have it like putting batteries in a toy
