My new ifixit battery connector is different than old one. (Solved)
New connector has only one screw hole. Old connector had two screw holes. Worse, I think the one screw hole on the new connector doesn't match up with the screw hole in the case. Is that possible? could I have the wrong replacement battery? How would I know for sure...apart from the misfitting screw hole and the one missing screw hole?
If I somehow do have the right replacement battery (for the model A1387), how do I get the connector screw hole aligned to the case screw hole and get the connector seated to circuit board?
Is this a good question?

Do you have an iPhone 4 or 4S?

Pretty sure it's a 4S. The model number tells that, does it not? A1387?

Owen,
I looked at the packing list.
For the battery, it reads as follows:
Part # IF182-000-1 iPhone 4 Replacement Battery
Does that mean I have the wrong battery? I ordered a replacement battery for the iPhone 4S.
