Motorola Moto G8 Power 2020 Battery Replacement XT2041-4 KZ50

[@stevejess9962]

Thanks for the tutorial. Sadly my old battery turned into a roman candle because I skipped two basic rules. 1:DISCHARGE your battery before attempting removal. 2. DO NOT USE SHARP METAL TOOLS ON A LITHIUM ION BATTERY. Amazingly even after being partly burned, my old phone still works, apart from some screen distortion where it got hot.

Thanks for sharing your experience..

Any time!

[@thedigodragon]

I followed these instructions and it worked out! Thank you.

[@DIYGeardo]

Great to hear!

[@ric636]

How was the battery life?

[@luisreyes7260]

thanks for the tutorial, I fixed my phone!

[@DIYGeardo]

Great!

[@patrickmarlow7139]

Thank you helped me replace that bulging battery

[@DIYGeardo]

Great

[@rnbj1189]

I wanted you to know that your extremely clear instructions also work to replace an LC40 battery on my Consumer Cellular Moto E XT2052-5, purchased Dec 18, 2020. Thank you for the video.

[@DIYGeardo]

Great to hear that. Also, soon we will update Moto E videos.

[@Drachenfang]

Thank you very much for this video. I was able to replace a dangerously swollen OEM battery on my G8 PLus

[@PortlandMan]

You are brave, I just put my swollen G8 Power in the trash and got a new phone

[@Drachenfang]

@@PortlandMan If you get another I highly recommend the repair. It was really easy.

[@luker.6555]

Thanks, nice tutorial 👌 Do you think the moto G8 Power would be similar enough to the moto G8 Plus to use this guide for the plus?

[@DIYGeardo]

Yes kind of same. We will try to get for videos for plus too, but meantime you can follow this..Thanks

[@cranstjs]

I tried, on my Moto Power 8, to follow the steps but with suction cup and heat gun and 6 attempts, the Moto glue is just not going to give up. At least my OEM battery is still pretty good. I guess I will return the set to Amazon. And as one person said, finding an OEM battery in the US two years after buying the phone, is nearly impossible without paying a huge markup.

[@DIYGeardo]

You mean to take out the back cover?

[@cranstjs]

@@DIYGeardo Yes. I tried for 30 minutes and couldn't do it. I guess the glue was pretty strong on my phone

[@mididoctors]

Quality

Means?

[@ashleydube1154]

Hi what kind of glue did you use?

[@DIYGeardo]

B7000/t7000

[@ashleydube1154]

@@DIYGeardo what type of glue is that? Super glue?

[@sleepyjoebeijingbiden3013]

where can i get the tools you used

[@DIYGeardo]

On the website in the description

[@1pose]

What is the recommended glue?

[@DIYGeardo]

B7000/T7000, if not an original adhesive strips

[@rogerpry7576]

About what temperature is needed or too high?

[@DIYGeardo]

60-80c is fine. Go with 1 minute intervals. That way you can control the extra heating

[@ghentsgames6371]

These are T4 screws, not t9 or phillips

[@irvinxd1693]

hermano podrias decirme que tornillos usa el telefono

[@idunnogin]

[@DIYGeardo]

You are welcome 🙏

[@darkknightgaming7345]

Bonjour je les fait mais le motorola a eu un leger feu qui demarrer et ces eteint seule au bout de quelque secondes auriez vius un conseil merci❤

[@DIYGeardo]

Can you explain bit more, thanks

[@manicjupiterflute]

My motherboard cover is held on with fucking star shaped screwdrivers, not the typical phillips. Great. Now I have to get a special screwdriver just for this phone.

[@DIYGeardo]

When we are doing mobile phone repairs you need to keep multi screwdriver with different heads. Sometimes different carriers have different screws.

[@puahaterx]

encountered the same problem. if you havent fixed your phone. dont bother taking out all the screws. just break off the plastic directly around the battery on the black plastic motherboard cover. I broke off enough to replace the battery. However, I was going to replace the phone if it didn't work so bear that in mind.

[@manicjupiterflute]

@@puahaterx I needed a 2t torx screwdriver so I ordered it online. You don't need the screws because the plastic clips into place securely. I put the phone back together without the screws. They use too much adhesive. I can tell this phone was designed to BREAK if you tried replacing the battery to force you to buy a new one instead of replacing the battery. This is the last motorola phone I ever get.

[@DivaDeb1234]

Dang I'll just have to buy new. This one waa $300 1:5 years ago
