Thank you so very much for posting this video with its diagram. The instructions that came from my Amazon sold battery replacement kit didn't have 1. It tried to describe them & it was less than 8. After trying to charge the battery 4 hours without having enough power to turn phone on, I decided to see what videos might be available. Yours was my 2nd to watch. 1st video was person pointing to spots on phone with their screwdriver at "gopro on the head" distance. Turns out the battery cable "plug" couldn't completely seat into the "outlet" when all 8 screws aren't removed.

Just changed the battery following your videos! Thank you for taking the time to make this! I also followed your advice and went with ifixit although the adhesive strips could have been a bit better as it was hard to pull off once I had it in place.

0:22 now that would make the decision to change the battery a whole lot easier.. I'm still in the grey area of whether it's better to leave well enough alone or try to improve it and risk killing the patient.😅

@@dubmob151 Yes, when it's this swollen, you are now tempting fate by continuing to use it. At that point IMO the decision to attempt a repair that has a high probability of success far outweighs the risk of choosing to take no action. I'd rather break my phone trying, than risk fire and/or injury by being complacent! Thanks again for watching!

I did NOT get such luck using a hair dryer to remove my buddy and had to get 91% isopropyl alcohol to hopefully remove it. It as the stock samsung battery. Thankfully my phone still powers on and works fine, but need to continue repairs in the morning. UPDATE: Got my 90% isopropyl alcohol and finished my repair, your video was VERY helpful towards the end of the repair! Thank you! Will use again in future if I need to do this again which I hope I don't!

@@halfmoontechlabs You're welcome! The part that confused me, though using some mental logic I figured it out, was where and how to apply the adhesive, but I looked at the markings from the adhesive I had removed the day before and figured out which side to apply it too. Otherwise, very solid repair guide video. I wish iFixIt had done a video like this instead of leaving one confused from pictures and not explaining how to put everything back into place.

Hello, this a great video showing the full process, I wonder does that's replacement battery give you more use time between charges compared to the original one?

@halfmoontechlabs 2 жыл бұрын

The replacement battery has proven to have about the same capacity as the original battery did when it was new... so it has proven to be a good choice. Even later now, with months of charge/discharge cycles since this video was made, I have been impressed with the longevity of the new cell. Thanks for watching!

@@halfmoontechlabs how long does this new battery last u

@halfmoontechlabs 2 жыл бұрын

@@ibrahimnaseem40 Short answer? "Similar to original". The longer answer is this is completely dependent on what you are doing, like talking, watching videos, listening to music, etc... as well as whether you are in-network, and proximity to cell tower(s). So the best answer I can give is that there seems to be no difference in longevity as compared to OEM battery when it was new. With casual everyday use, typically we'll see a 70±% charge left over at end of day, and if it has been lightly used, and just sitting on standby... 2 days is not uncommon. Thanks for watching!

@@halfmoontechlabs if she has that much capacity left after a day, consider turning on the charge limit setting if the OS version supports it. Only charging to 80 or 90% will help conserve the battery's life (I'm looking at replacing my OEM battery soon, and 4 years after release, I'm a bit worried about whether replacements will be available when the replacement dies).

@@Phoen1x883 On the Samsung Galaxy S-10e, the path is: Settings-->Battery & Device Care-->Battery-->More battery settings-->Protect battery. On the current software, this is hard set to 85%, not adjustable, but still great advice for more casual users. Thanks for the advice, and for watching!

Some have really aggressive adhesives holding in battery. Generally, proper warming of front of phone (screen side) followed with slow but steady pressure, and it will slowly start to "give", and peel away from inside phone. Heat, gentle force, and time eventually win out over the adhesive. Good luck, and thanks for watching!
