This manual will help you give your iPhone 6 a second chance at life thanks to a new battery.

This manual instructs you to remove the front panel assembly with the display – this step is important to protect the display cables. If you feel like you are capable of holding the display in place during the battery replacement you may skip this step and move directly to the section on battery replacement.

Calibrate you new battery after installing it: Discharge it under 10% and then fully charge it to 100% without disruption.

Step 1
Remove Pentalobe screws

Before disassembling the iPhone, discharge the battery under 25%. Charged lithium-ion battery can catch fire or explode, if accidentally damaged.

Turn off your iPhone.
Remove the two 3,6 mm Pentalobe screws next to the Lightning connector.

Step 2
Opening the device

Insert the pick into the gap
Creating this gap requires a considerable amount of strength. If necessary, loosen the display with a upwards-downwards movement, to create enough room for the spudger.
Move the pick gently to the left on the bottom edge of the iPhone.
Gently pry up the pick, to gradually enlarge the gap.

Step 3
Removing the accumulator console screws

Remove the following screws from the end of the battery connector:
- One 2,2 mm screws
- One 3,2 mm screw

Step 4
Disconnecting the metal battery connector bracket

Disconnect the metal battery connector bracket from the iPhone device.

Step 5
Disconnecting battery connector

Using a plastic spudger, gently disconnect the battery connector from its socket on the motherboard.
Be careful, to disconnect only the battery connector and not to rip out the whole connector in the motherboard. If you launch the motherboard socket, you could completely rip the connector.
