iPhone no longer updates after battery is replaced?

I replaced the battery with one of IFix kits, all works besides the battery health but I suspected that as I read it in the notes when carrying out the purchase of the kit. Only issue is now the phone will no longer update and is stuck with the older software. Unsure if this is normal?

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

This is quite normal on Apple devices unfortunately. I think something like a device like the one I link to is the only solution. Hope you kept the original battery.

I didn’t keep the original battery… might be stuck with this phone in older software. Thank you for your help.

@seth71078 Always happy to help. These kinds of practices are widely known by most of us repairers who do these repairs regularly so thats why it is best to keep the parts you swap out in case something like this can happen. Now you know too and can help others.
