I can not figure out what exact part is broken

Hi i would like to ask if you cold advise me what might be broken in my iphone. My iphone 4s feel down from like 30cm and shut down. After a while it started up again and everything was fine. But after a while it shut down again for no reason. and then i was not able to star it up unless i connected it to charger. Now my wifi button is missing (black spot instead), everytime i start up iphone it says its 1st of January and its 1:00 AM, it also show my battery is full and i can not connect to my phone operator to call. I noticed a small gap on top, between back and case of the iphone (its really tight but you can put paper in it). Thank you for every advice. PS: I know its not easy to tell what might be broken but i want to epair it by myself and i don know what part of the phone is broken. The i will find a guid and repair it. Thanks for advice.

The gap between the back cover of the phone and the metal housing of the iPhone 4 is a strong indicator that the battery may have expanded.

That issue you are having with the time resetting is probably due to the battery becoming faulty. You probably just need to replace the battery.

I think you should start with the batter. Open it up and check if the logic board is damaged or if any other part is.

Start from there and then you can have a better idea of what's wrong
