The following guide is meant to give you a step by step instruction on how to replace a battery for your iPhone 6 that is no longer holding a charge. Please be sure to take care during every step of this procedure as parts and flex cables can be easily damaged or broken. As well, you must be sure to keep track of where each screw is removed from so that when it comes time to re-install them you know exactly where to put them. When removing or lifting flex cables, it is suggest to use plastic spudgers or plastic opening and lifting tools. Before continuing it is advised to read the disclaimer at the bottom of this article.
We suggest the following parts and tools for this repair:
Remove the 3.6mm Pentalobe or Phillips #000 screws located at the bottom of the phone near the dock connector. Note: The 5-point Pentalobe Screwdriver should only be used once as it has the potential to strip the screws.
Secure a suction cup to the front LCD Assembly and gently pull on the assembly while using a pry tool along the bottom and sides and begin to lift the assembly away from the body of the phone.
Remove the 5 Phillips head screws near the top right of the battery which secure the metal assembly cable bracket to the phone.
Remove the metal assembly cable bracket.
Carefully disconnect the Front-Facing Camera Flex Cable, Home Button Flex Cable, LCD Flex Cable and Digitizer Flex Cable from the logic board. Lift the assembly away from the iPhone and set it aside.
Remove the two screws at the bottom right side of the battery which secure a metal plate and remove the metal battery connector plate.
Detach the battery flex cable from the logic board.
Peel back the adhesive tape from the bottom of the battery and pull it away from the phone. Use low pressure and slowly increase until the tape pulls completely free from the phone. Do the same for both pieces of tape on the left and right side.
Remove the battery by releasing it from the adhesive backing that is securing it from the phone.
Install your new battery and proceed with the above steps in reverse order to reassemble your phone.
