Introduction
With daily use, a typical battery will last around 18-24 months before losing significant capacity. If your phone doesn't charge, won't turn on or turns off suddenly, replacing the battery may be a solution. Use this guide to quickly replace your battery. All you need is your device and an opening tool (or you can just use your hands!). Before disassembling your phone, discharge the battery below 20%.
What you need
-
-
-
Place the phone face down.
-
Insert a fingernail or a plastic opening tool into the gap on the side of the phone.
-
Carefully slide your finger or the tool throughout the edge of the phone to ease the back case off.
