Oneplus 5 Battery Replacement - It's EASY! - EDIT: REMOVE THE BOTTOM SCREWS FIRST!

[@ndeezer]

Looks like you forgot to show how to remove the first two screws at the bottom of the phone. Without removing them, you can't pry open the back panel.

[@SanderCokart]

Really???? Shit

[@SanderCokart]

Ah those 2 yes 😅😅😅

[@MrTheSteelpan]

Assange, is that you? Thank you king Julian

[@dominik6118]

Thank you. i followed your steps. Great video. Phone is working but i recommend just not to use the suction cup. i loosened the screen just by pulling at the suction cup. everything is working but there is a small gap now on the lower side of the phone where the screen is a little bit loose. i dont think its a problem but for people that want to avoid that: dont use a suction cup and try only to clip it open by the downside like shown in the video. it is not necessary to slide a plastic pik all around the phone. And i loosened the T1 Torx Screws with a T2 Torx Screwdriver. Its possible.

[@Saurny]

For those who will try to follow this video: FIRST you have to remove two torx screws, that are on the sides of your USB port. ONLY THEN you should proceed with the rest of disassembly.

[@Assyyaa]

I broke my screen cuz of this piece of sht video…. 😡🤬

[@SanderCokart]

Sorry about this but I am not responsible. I also put a guitar pick under the display yet mine was fine first time I did that. Definitely scary tho.

[@BaterieCZ]

Done this 2 weeks back :D Battery life-time of 1+5 is very poor :D

[@SanderCokart]

Neat I'll try it!

[@addictaedtokookie1622]

my oneplus 5 has been shutting down at 30, 50 and even 90% so I hope this works 😭

[@fireryone]

Thanks good video, this one shows getting the back off in better detail and a healthy reminder to condition the battery.

[@SanderCokart]

Thank you :)

[@Nobody-zq8bl]

Has anyone measured the actual (not claimed) capacity of these replacement batteries?

[@SanderCokart]

It's about 3250 mah

[@SynergyOfTwo]

after replacing the battery the camera no longer works and give the message "failed to open camera". I didn't unplug the camera.

[@SanderCokart]

Weird....maybe check connection again.

[@judithvanschie8033]

Hey Sander, Bedankt voor je video! Net de batterij vervangen. Hopelijk geen stroomstootjes en bagger accu meer. Thanks man :)

[@SanderCokart]

Alsjeblieft!

[@Yeggstry]

Thanks for the video :) can I just check which torx screwdriver you used to unscrew the bottom screws?

[@SanderCokart]

Ifixit pro tool kit.

[@Yeggstry]

Sorry I should have been more specific. I meant which size. When looking online I'm seeing a mix of T1 and T2 recommended for it.

[@Yeggstry]

For reference of anyone looking for it, this toolkit has a T2 torx bit so I'm assuming that's what is needed :) will have to grab a bit for it!

[@SanderCokart]

@@Yeggstry it's T2

[@brunosausset6874]

Hi good video thx could you just remind me how to calibrate the battery after the replacement please ???

[@SanderCokart]

Run it empty all the way and then charge it up all the way

[@Robinccc300]

Hey there! Great guide! I used this on my one Oneplus 5. But one thing that is missing in this and other guides. What are the screwdrivers called? Would be nice with names for both screwdrivers. I had one screwdriver for the internal screws (philips screws), but the smaller one you called torx at the end, for the first and last step, opening and closing the phone, I did not have that one. I used wrong screwdriver for that, which I should not do, but luckily my screws didnt get destroyed.

[@Robinccc300]

So I did this like 1 month ago. First days the battery seemed pretty Okey. But pretty quick it started to drain battery faster and faster. Last 2 weeks it has been just as bad as my old battery. Could it have been because I bought an original oneplus battery? Today I ordered a new battery, but I'm trying third party this time. Anyone has any experience or thoughts about it?

[@SanderCokart]

No clue...

[@SanderCokart]

Must let it fully calibrate tho

[@Robinccc300]

@@SanderCokart I think it did that. Could you tell me in short how you did the calibration?

[@SanderCokart]

@@Robinccc300 fill all the way. Drain all the way. Refill again. Continue doing it until it becomes stable

i realize I'm kinda off topic but does anyone know of a good site to stream new series online?

[@jordyharlem5481]

@Ignacio Grant i use Flixzone. You can find it on google =)

[@chandanpiku]

What about oneplus 5t SWE? Is it glued too?

[@SanderCokart]

5t is identical to the 5 in all components except the screen

[@zoltanmoricz2303]

I secretly always hope that one day your phone will break into a million pieces and you will be crying. But great video man!

[@SanderCokart]

xD

[@tonyjfx2276]

One little point: Please place the battery connector after you connect al other connectors. So you don't shortcut your phone. Tony

Hello, does the fast charge work after the battery change?

[@SanderCokart]

Yup

[@grinvich2304]

I don't recommend using it.

[@spider32176]

how to calibrate the battery ?? Have googled found one where I would charge them to 100 then unload completely (done). then press the power button once (done). Now it should be charged to 100 again but get the error code that was from the beginning before I changed the battery .... Please help, battery and socket changed

[@SanderCokart]

Just do as i said in the video thats what i did nothing more.

[@Foto-fi9gz]

the replacement battery needs a pull tab also tho in order to replace battery again and again

[@KNoobGamerz]

Is there some 5000 or 6000 mah battery available for OnePlus of some Chinese company?

you'd lose dash charging. but probably

Getting the back off my OnePlus 5 is proving extremely difficult. I can't get plastic tools to even begin to get in to separate the back, I'm wondering if it has been glued.

There is no glue! It's all clips.
