iPhone 5s Battery Replacement

Use this guide to bring life back to your iPhone 5s with a new battery.

Removing the battery with the adhesive strips is the safest method, but also leaves your battery without adhesive. When replacing your battery, use a piece of double-sided tape to secure it. The battery is pretty tightly secured in the device, but the tape will keep it from rattling.




STEP 1 :

Remove-two 2.0 mm Pentalobe-screws-from-ipone 5s


  • Power off your iPhone before beginning disassemble.
  • Remove the two 2.0 mm Pentalobe screws next to the Lightning connector




STEP 2:

  • The next two steps demonstrate using the iSclack, a great tool for safely opening the iPhone 5s that we recommend for anyone doing more than one repair. If you aren't using the iSclack, skip to step 4.
  • Close the handle on the iSclack, opening the suction-cup jaws.
  • Place the bottom of your iPhone in between the suction cups, against the plastic depth gauge
  • The top suction cup should rest just above the home button.
  • Open the handles to close the jaws of the iSclack. Center the suction cups and press them firmly onto the top and bottom of the iPhone.

STEP 3:

  • Hold onto your iPhone securely and close the handle of the iSclack to separate the suction cups, pulling the front panel up from the rear case.
  • The iSclack is designed to safely open your iPhone just enough to separate the pieces, but not enough to damage the home button cable.
  • Peel the two suction cups off your iPhone.

STEP 4:


  • If you don't have an iSclack, use a single suction cup to lift the front panel:
  • Press a suction cup onto the screen, just above the home button.
  • Be sure the cup is completely on the screen to get a tight seal.
STEP 5:

  • The front panel is attached with clips, and there are several ribbon cables connecting it to the rest of the phone. Your goal here is to release the clips and open the phone only enough to disconnect the cables. Go slowly and carefully to avoid damage.
  • Make sure the suction cup is firmly attached to the front panel assembly near the home button.
  • While holding the iPhone down with one hand, pull up on the suction cup to slightly separate the home button end of the front panel from the rear case.
  • With a plastic opening tool, gently pry the edges of the rear case down, away from the front panel assembly, while you pull up with the suction cup.
  • Take your time and apply firm, constant force. The 5s front panel assembly is a much tighter fit than most devices.

STEP 6:


  • Do not try to completely remove the front panel assembly from the rear case, as there are several ribbon cables still attached at the top of the iPhone.
  • Pull the plastic nub to release the vacuum seal on the suction cup.
  • Remove the suction cup from the display assembly.
STEP 7:

  • Open the phone just enough to reveal the metal bracket covering the home button cable.
  • Do not open the phone too far or you risk damaging the home button cable.
  • Use the tip of a spudger to push the bracket free and remove it with tweezers.
STEP 8:

  • Use the tip of a spudger to pry the home button cable connector up out of its socket.
STEP 9:

  • Once the connector has been released, pull the home button end of the assembly away from the rear case, using the top of the phone as a hinge.
  • During the next few steps, until you remove the front panel assembly, keep it supported at a 90º angle in relation to the rear case.
STEP 10:

  • Remove the following screws securing the front panel assembly cable bracket to the logic board:
    • Two 1.7 mm Phillips #000 screws
    • One 1.2 mm Phillips #000 screw
    • One 1.3 mm Phillips #000 screw
  • This screw tends to not be attracted to a magnetized screwdriver. Take care not to lose it when removing.
STEP 11:

  • Remove the front panel assembly cable bracket from the logic board.
STEP 12:

  • Use the flat end of a spudger to disconnect the front-facing camera and sensor cable.

STEP 13:

  • While still supporting the front panel, disconnect the digitizer cable connector.
STEP 14:

  • Finally, disconnect the LCD cable connector.
  • When reassembling your phone, The LCD cable may pop off the connector. This can result in white lines or a blank screen when powering your phone back on. If that happens, simply reconnect the cable and power cycle your phone. The best way to power cycle your phone is to disconnect and reconnect the battery.
STEP 15:

  • Remove the front panel assembly from the rear case.
STEP 16:

  • Remove the two 1.6 mm Phillips #000 screws securing the metal battery connector bracket to the logic board.
STEP 17:
  • Remove the metal battery connector bracket from the iPhone.

STEP 18:

  • Use the flat end of a spudger to gently pry the battery connector up from its socket on the logic board.
  • Be very careful to only pry up on the battery connector and not the socket on the logic board. If you pry up on the logic board socket, you may break the connector entirely.
STEP 19:

  • Run the tip of a spudger between the battery and the headphone jack to unfold the battery adhesive tab.
STEP 20:

  • Use a pair of tweezers to pull the battery adhesive tab away from the phone.
  • Cut the black battery adhesive tab between the two white adhesive strips, separating them.
STEP 21:

  • Pull the innermost tab evenly straight up.
  • Do not twist the tab; try to keep the adhesive strip as flat and wide as possible. When the adhesive bunches up it tends to tear.
  • Be sure you do not pull the tab against any of the components of the phone; they may puncture the adhesive and cause the strip to tear.
STEP 22:

  • Pull the tab carefully and evenly around the corner of the battery.
  • Pull the tab away from the battery as you round the corner to avoid the sharp corner.
STEP 23:

  • Pull the strip along the side of the battery until the strip comes free from the phone.
STEP 24:

  • Pull the outside battery adhesive tab straight up and carefully around the corner of the battery.
STEP 25:

  • Pull the strip along the edge of the battery until it is freed from the phone.
STEP 26:

  • Pull the battery out of the rear case.

--- Cheers !!!!
