Perhaps your battery has died completely and your iPhone won't boot even boot up anymore. There are lots of reasons an iPhone battery may need to be replaced. Luckily a replacement battery is actually not very costly and as luck may have it, it's one of the easiest <a href="http://www.imore.com/iphone-repair" title="Everything you need to know about DIY repairing your own iPhone!">iPhone repairs[/url] for almost every model.

Use these 5 steps to maximize your iPhone battery life!</li> </ul><!--break--><h2>Warning about battery replacements</h2> <p>When replacing a battery in your iPhone, or any electronic device for that matter, it's very important you use high quality or OEM batteries. While using aftermarket components may not be unsafe in some circumstances, a battery is a huge exception. We recommend only using reputable suppliers for battery replacements like eTech Parts, who provide not only high quality replacement parts but will warranty them against defects for up to 6 months.</p> <h2>How to replace the battery in an iPhone 5</h2> <p><a href='http://www.imore.com/how-to-replace-iphone-battery-ultimate-guide' title="How to replace your iPhone battery: The ultimate guide"><img src='http://www.imore.com/sites/imore.com/files/styles/large_wm_brw/public/field/image/2014/04/battery_removal_diy_howto_7.jpg?itok=Yp37L9Ux' />[/url]</p> <p>Even though the iPhone 5 features a much larger battery than previous models, it's also powering the pixels to a larger screen. Since the iPhone 5 is now more than a year old, many owners may be seeing shorter than expected charge cycles that could warrant a replacement. Unfortunately, the iPhone 5 also seems to be more susceptible to faulty batteries. The most common issue seems to be users reporting when their iPhone 5 falls below 20% or so, it turns off and won't turn back on until plugged into a charger. This issue however, shouldn't be confused with a burnt out IC chip due to using a faulty charger. But if you're sure your battery is just bad, we can walk you through each and every step of replacing it, along with links on where to buy a new one.</p> <ul><li>How to replace the battery in an iPhone 5 </li> </ul><h2>How to replace the battery in an iPhone 4S</h2> <p><a href='http://www.imore.com/how-to-replace-iphone-battery-ultimate-guide' title="How to replace your iPhone battery: The ultimate guide"><img src='http://www.imore.com/sites/imore.com/files/styles/large_wm_brw/public/field/image/2014/06/iphone_4s_battery_diy_guide_hero_updated.jpg?itok=ZL0NEC7r' />[/url]</p> <p>The iPhone 4S is only on a few years old and that's enough to start taking a toll on your battery. If you picked up an iPhone 4S fairly close to launch, you're way out of warranty by now. If you notice your battery deteriorating and no longer holding the charge it once did, a battery replacement for the iPhone 4S only consists of about 4 screws, one clip, a few tools, and about 15 minutes of your time. Hit the link below to check out our complete guide for replacing the battery in your iPhone 4S.</p> <ul><li>How to replace the battery in an iPhone 4S</li> </ul><h2>How to replace the battery in an iPhone 4</h2> <p><a href='http://www.imore.com/how-to-replace-iphone-battery-ultimate-guide' title="How to replace your iPhone battery: The ultimate guide"><img src='http://www.imore.com/sites/imore.com/files/styles/large_wm_blw/public/field/image/2014/06/iphone_4_battery_diy_hero_fixed.jpg?itok=wR07ogMu' />[/url]</p> <p>While the GSM and CDMA version of the iPhone 4 are different in many repair aspects, they're actually almost the same when it comes to a battery replacement. Luckily, both battery swaps are very easy to perform. Not only that, they both utilize the exact same battery. Since the iPhone 4 has been out for almost 4 years now, a new battery could drastically improve how much juice you can get out of it in a day. Despite the iPhone 4's age, a dead battery is definitely something worth replacing if your phone is in good working condition in every other aspect. If you're up to the task, hit the guide below and we'll walk you through every step of the way.</p> <ul><li>How to replace the battery in an iPhone 4</li> </ul><h2>How to replace the battery in an iPhone 3G or iPhone 3GS</h2> <p><a href='http://www.imore.com/how-to-replace-iphone-battery-ultimate-guide' title="How to replace your iPhone battery: The ultimate guide"><img src='http://www.imore.com/sites/imore.com/files/styles/large_wm_blw/public/field/image/2014/06/iphone_3gs_battery_diy_guide_hero_fixed.jpg?itok=ipxkgWel' />[/url]</p> <p>The iPhone 3G and iPhone 3GS are well past showing their age but that doesn't make them disposable phones for many folks, at least not yet. At this point, most people probably have one or the other laying around that has less than stellar battery life. Perhaps you use it as a standby phone or iPod or you'd like to give it to a friend, relative, or child. Regardless the reason, a battery replacement can bring new life to both the iPhone 3G and iPhone 3GS. While a replacement involves quite a few more screws than other iPhone models, it's certainly doable for anyone mildly skilled with DIY repair. If you're willing to take the time and have just a few ninja moves up your sleeve, it's a super cheap repair to perform and may be worth it simply to have a spare phone laying around.</p> <ul><li>How to replace the battery in an iPhone 3G or iPhone 3GS</li> </ul><h2>More DIY guides and help</h2> <p>Still need help or didn't find what you were looking for?
