My Problem
The original battery was showing its age and had swollen to the point where it put a nice bend in my screen.
My Fix
After getting the battery cover off and figuring out what needs to be disconnected it wasn't actually that bad, Now granted I had to replace the screen anyway because of the bend it put on the screen. I will say I was nervous when I first plugged it in and didn't get any response from the phone but after hooking up the charger and reconnecting the old battery real quick and then swapping it over to the new one it charged it with no problem. I only left it on the charger enough to get the phone booted up and to see where the battery was at with its charge. After running the battery to about 10% and bringing it to full charge the battery lasts a lot longer than it has before.
My Advice
Don't buy the cheap batteries off of ebay, the one I got from ebay the battery was not oem like seller stated and the battery connector broke off during install.
