YONTEX Battery Model iP5 0 Cycle - with Replacement Repair Tool Kits, Adhesive Strip and Screen Protector

Update after installing new battery: It's working great. Phone at 99% charge 1 day later (with no phone calls).Right off the bat, don't panic if your phone doesn't turn on immediately after you are finished. Plug it into your charger, give it several seconds and you should see the 'battery' picture showing that the new battery needs charging.A few tips:-Instead of hunching over your table, stack some large books on your table or even use a cardboard box so you can work on it at eye level. Makes it much easier.-Put the screws and parts in a bowl as you remove them so they don't run away, (guess that's why this kit gives you extra screws.) All the screws are magnetic except the very top-right one, so put all the magnetic screws back in first so you can find that last non-magnetic one. You'll need the tweezers to drop that one in place.-The top plate pushes against the ribbons so you'll need to slip a finger in between the two halves to hold it in place to screw it back down. Put one of the magnetic screws on the tip of the screwdriver beforehand, ready to go.-Take a good look at the old battery ribbon connector to see how it's shaped, and try to duplicate it on the new one. It needs to be curved into a "U"to slip into the space alongside the battery. Use the plastic flat end tool to gently push it in after you attach the connector. The entire ribbon should be alongside the battery, not on top.For me the hardest part was removing the old battery as it was really glued down. All the plastic tools worked great getting the cover off but then they all broke trying to get the battery out. At this point it took a butter knife to gently pry it out from the left side (stay away from the side buttons.) There's a spot about midway along the side on the BUTTON SIDE ONLY. Don't try to pry from the right side or bottom/top that contains the electronics. If it wasn't so well glued in, I could have easily replaced it without undoing the top ribbon connections. I even tried heating it from the bottom with a blow dryer but it didn't seem to help much.Power down your phone before starting, but watch it to see if it turns back on. Mine kept turning back on several times until I finally disconnected the battery.So now the phone is recharging as I'm writing this. If it fails to hold a charge I'll edit this and take off 4 stars.

Purchased this for myself to replace my iPhone 5 battery that was always requiring a charge. This kit has everything you need to replace the battery. The instructions were good but watch a YouTube video on how to do it. Making sure the connectors for the screen were properly connected (snapped type) took multiple times before the white vertical lines went always when phoned powered up. Search on net indicated data screen connectors plugs not properly seated...after fix, it works great. Had it on for three days straight before having to charge the phone so very pleased with the end results and just order another one to replace the battery in my wife’s iPhone....sweet.

It was not easy, but I managed to replace the battery and it works. The most difficult steps were to open the screen and to remove the old battery. Plastic tools were warping and breaking while doing that. Please don’t rely on the instructions in the kit. It is not necessary to remove the screen completely. It might be helpful to have someone hold the screen at 90 degrees while you are replacing the battery. And also to hold the phone while you are releasing the screen.When you are done make sure to first fit in the top of the screen, then the bottom.

This battery works great. Got the battery by using the credit card under stick tab and all it took was 5 seconds. Made the mistake by installing the same old battery back in since They were both together on the table. Very easy install. Had my son hold the cover at a 40 degree angle so I didn’t disconnect the top. Think of lol get one for my iPhone 6.

This is an extremely complete kit! The instructions and tools included in the kit made taking our phone apart and replacing the battery a breeze! So far the battery is working great. No more erratic battery readings plus the battery is holding it's charge much longer. Everything in this kit is very nice quality and the tools included are going in our toolbox to be used in the future as they're nice enough to not be one-time use tools.

Perfect fit...included all the tools I needed and more...so far, holding charge great. (Old battery would not last a day...new battery lasted 2 days with regular use after only 1 charge cycle.). If battery lasts 500 cycles, as described, will be perfect. Installation was tricky because cable connectors are TINY and difficult to align properly, but that is the iPhone design, not a fault of the battery.

I had an issue with the battery but I was contacted by customer service very fast to solve the problem.Now the battery works as it should have been since the beginning.

Excellent tools, a lot better than others I have seen for the same price. The golden thing looks really neat. It even comes with a screen protector and all other stuff not really related to replacing the battery, but feels nice to get as a bonus.Just a problem, been charging the battery for a long time and it isn't getting off the low battery icon. I purchased this to test if a new battery will make my iphone 5 faster, not because my old battery wasn't working. So I am pretty disappointed. I will update if any changes occur.edit: After charging for about 45 minutes, the phone finally opened with 14%. Then after playing a game for like 5 minute, my phone didn't even show the -low battery 10% left- before it just shut down.Now I'm charging it and it's not turning on anymore. Just looping on apple logo. Rip battery 5/17/2018-5/17-2018. Lifespan of 15 minutes.Updated again, VERY good customer service by YONTEX as I was offered FULL refund AND replacement.
