I LL try soon thanks

Only reason watching now. Phones been shutting off or dies after couple hours of being awake. So time to replace my og battery.

@@chrisiverson257 Remember buy a good battery and not a ali one, normally the quality I decent but after i put my ali battery in its like equal good as the 4.5 year used battery i had

mine keeps going... bought in 2017... its showing age but not that bad for a 5 year phone

Matthew Fraser it all got to do with ip68. Your phone has to be perfectly sealed.. the traditional back cover can't seal your internal components well enough.

are you sure gs5 was ip86? old rubber seals could work on a user serviceable back cover but definitely would add a few mm extra, this is not greed as matthew is saying tho, its design choices, as they dont expect you to replace battery in 2 years, they expect you to buy a new phone

Luis are you saying you can swap the battery on their non ip86 phones then?

I agree

They do that because by sealing the phone they can add tons of features like water resistance, dust resistance, and other features. Makes the phone last longer and better. Besides it's just a little glue. Unlike apple that deliberately programs their stuff to detect repairs and 3rd party parts and work improperly on purpose. Not to mention they don't release manuals and make updates that make it so that older models stop working. I work in mobile device repairs. Apple products I refuse to repair. They are built with obvious intent to be irreparable and force their customers to buy more.

No they are different size

Raghvendra Singh obviously

Two years later. He did use the adhesive. When it looked like he was removing the old adhesive he was actually removing the top coating of the new adhesive.

James Stockett its not i took a broken phone apart and its not as easy as it looks.

Probably cheaper to buy a new phone when there done

@@kimthiebault2076 Yea. Best do it yourself because its not actually hard. I think the only hard thing is removing the back cover

If your battery is trash, your phones not going to magically be trash after anyhow lol. If you mess up just take it to a local tech shop. Atleast you tried.

@@the.reel.mccoy. best reply. My 9th grade small engines shop teacher told us a story of his sons atari joystick that broke. The family didn't want him to 'break' it. He said what more could he do? It wasn't working anyway... the point of the story and he also stressed, don't be afraid to try something yourself you might surprise yourself, learn yourself, and save yourself (money) probably the most valuable lesson of my entire life. I have repaired just about everything I've ever had and i owe it all to that one lesson.

@@jamesnewcomb6065 A freakin men dude! My old man has been fixing and working on cars his entire life. Finally one day my cars valve train was messed up and I asked him what he thought it was. When he told me that it was probably a bent valve, I was horrified at the price the local shop offered to swap it at. He reminded me that even if I mess up the job, I'd learn from it. That was the best $200 I ever spent. He helped me along from time to time, but it was the first time I really ever pulled something apart, invested some decent cash, and fixed. The shop quoted me at 750. But for $200, I was able to not only save money and learn how to fix that pos, but also learned a lesson that anything can be fixed, it's just about how much effort you're willing to put into it. Pretty much on that day, he inspired me to switch my major and I've been working on cars more intensively ever since! 4 years later and I'm almost done with school and can't remember the last time I paid someone to fix something.
