“Was able to replace my battery with minimal difficulty (removing the adhesive on the old battery is a pain). Tools I got met all my needs.
Only comlaint I have is with the replacement adhesive that came with the battery, it wasn't entirely clear what direction I was meant to lay the adhesive, and it also didn't come with the layer of final release liners, so the adhesive was sticking to stuff while I was reassembling, and also stuck to the blue backing layer when I was trying to remove that after applying it, lifting off the phone in some areas, that was troublesome. That's the only reason this review isn't five stars.
Other than that, the battery is working well, will probably come here again in five years when I need another new battery.”
“The complexity of the repair was mostly to keep track of the myriad screws involved in stripping out nearly everything. I still have one screw "extra" and can't find where it goes. The video had colored circles around the screws to aid recognition, but the colors weren't consistent so no way to keep them properly separated. Also a number of suggestions at the end to avoid removal would have been better read in the beginning. Still haven't connected the battery and buttoned everything up but hope to have a functional machine soon. (Aso found that the right speaker cable popped off the mainboard and am trying to reattach it, but about to give up because the left speaker should be enough.)”
“Arrived as promised. But it's a shame I had to buy the whole kit for 1 screw. Shipping costs are excessive. Poorly packaged. Not sure if anything was lost in transit.”
