iPhone 4S Battery Replacement

10 minutes

Easy

My Problem

Old battery in my iPhone 4S had expanded so much that the back cover on the phone had lifted up approximately 1/4 of an inch. This was a problem because the iPhone would no longer fit in my MINI Snap in adapter (in the armrest of the car)

My Fix

The repair was easy, I followed the step by step instructions provided online using my purchased iFixit Essential Electronics Toolkit and the repair went very smooth.

My Advice

I highly recommend the iFixit Essential Electronics Toolkit, the Kit has what you need to get the job done properly. The quality tools are labeled which makes it easy to select the proper tool when following the step by step instructions.
