Wife has a work iPhone, previous gen (1GB) . Not sure of model, but about 3 years old. What's the go with battery replacement? getting hot and not holding charge too well. Told in the country town where she is today that she needs to 'send it to Apple'   :undecided:  If you could get a battery, is this a home/DIY job?

disassembling and iphone is not for the weary. i consider myself to have skills and after opening it, i kind of wish i didnt. it survived. id recommend sending it in..

there are about 1000+ walkthroughs/guides on youtube that demonstrate

Place fingernail in cutout on back panel. Lift gently until cover comes free. Remove battery, replace with fully charged one. Replace back cover. Done.


Oh, wait this is a iPhone, sorry thought it was a android.  :wink:

I'd rather have stories told than be telling stories of what I could have done.

Here are all the walkthroughs I trust. Find your Wife's model & see if it's worth it, I'd be inclined to just get a new model honestly.
