Phone batteries age: if the battery life got lower and lower to this point, this simply indicates the battery needs replacement. Hit eBay for super cheap usually-kinda-ok batteries shipped straight from China. All such sellers like about capacity, but it's still better than a dead old battery.
The e-Waste disaster is the batteries can’t be replaced without heroics.
What exact model number and specifications for the cable? Digikey is usually a good source for such things.
There is NO NEED to remove the display. As far as I can see the risk is lower leaving the display connected.
Like many other people, the removal of the glue strips never works out. I’ve done three, all broke.
Don’t do it. Don’t do this step. With some gentle care you can get the battery replaced without ever removing the four tiny screws from !&&*.
What voltage is that battery? What size? Small coin cells in that range are available at DigiKey....
Now, can we get a replacement battery? Or hack some other tiny lithium battery in?
As above mine has no life until connected to usb charger then battery level is shown as full, and fitbit 6.06 is displayed for a few seconds.
Bryce Nesbitt is an awesome iFixit contributor. You remove every screw: as it says above they are all visible from the outside.
Can the outer speaker cloth be reattached? Why no red dot for that?
Nice, but would be nice to have the antennas torn down also.
