Hey there! Ready to give your iPhone 6s Plus a new lease on life with a fresh battery? If your battery is feeling a bit puffy, no worries! Just take a few precautions. This guide will show you how to gently detach the front panel assembly, keeping those delicate display cables safe and sound. Feeling confident? Well, you can skip the display removal and jump right into removing the battery with finesse. Don’t forget about the optional but highly recommended step of bidding adieu to the Taptic Engine to make battery removal a breeze. And hey, for top-notch performance, once you’re done, make sure to give your new battery some love: Charge it up to 100% and then keep the party going for a couple more hours. Let your iPhone dance until it tuckers out from low battery, then charge it back up to full power. Need an extra hand? You can always schedule a repair. Lastly, feel free to use this guide to switch out the battery connector bracket too. Happy repairing!
Step 1
– First things first, let’s give your iPhone a little timeout – power it down before we dive into the fun of disassembly!
– Next up, grab your trusty Pentalobe screwdriver and carefully remove the two 3.4 mm screws on each side of the Lightning port. You’ve got this!
Step 2
In the next couple of steps, we’ll introduce you to the Anti-Clamp, our handy tool designed to make opening your device a breeze! Not using the Anti-Clamp? No worries! Just skip ahead three steps for an alternative method.
– Tug on the blue handle like you’re unlocking a treasure chest to free the Anti-Clamp’s arms.
– Slip the arms snugly over either the left or right cheek of your iPhone—dealer’s choice!
– Park the suction cups near the iPhone’s chin, just above the home button—one in the front, one in the back, like a little sandwich.
– Give those cups a good squeeze to stick them onto the spot you want to fix.
Step 3
– Yank the blue handle forward to snap those arms into place.
– Give that handle a good twist clockwise—keep spinning until those suction cups look like they’re hitting the gym!
– Pop an opening pick under the screen once you’ve got enough room from the Anti-Clamp’s hard work.
– Feel free to hop over the next three steps.
Step 4
– Lacking an Anti-Clamp? No sweat! Just breeze through the next three steps with a suction handle.
– Give the lower edge of your iPhone a little warmth with an iOpener or hair dryer—about a minute should do the trick!
