iPhone 6s Plus: Older but sealed battery - question

Tue, 22 Mar 2022 08:55:57 -0700

Hey there,

im tempted to buy a “second hand” 6s plus battery which was only in a shelf (sealed) for quite some time. The stemp says “11/2020”.
Will this be weak battery by now or will it be quite alright since it has not been used?

Cheers

So at night I turned of my phone and went to sleep.

Does anyone have a picture of how it looks like so I know if to order another one or toss the phone

iPhone 6s Plus: iPhone doesn't start after battery replacement

Thu, 24 Feb 2022 21:03:59 -0700

Hi,

I replaced the iPhone 6s plus battery. I hope I did it correctly. Once I put everything back, my phone won’t turn on. I thought it’s because the battery that I received isn’t full. Hence thought of charging it.

When connected to the charger, the iPhone is stuck in the boot loop. It never starts. If the charger is disconnected then the iPhone doesn’t turn on at all (just black screen).

Not sure where the problem is - whether the connections to the chip were are wrong or the connection to the battery is wrong or something else.

I can’t test it with the older battery, as it got bent when replaced.

I set my phone down to grab the charger and immediately the screen turned on to unlock the phone and turned off and then it did that 5 more times. Why is it doing this?

iPhone 6s Plus: Poor mic audio only on phone calls

Sun, 26 Dec 2021 15:20:47 -0700

Seeing a similar problem reported on this forum I followed the directions of replacing the Lightning Connector Assembly which includes two microphones and the headphone jack. This did not fix my problem. The problem is when on phone calls my outgoing audio through the local microphone is very muffled and low in volume. If I plug in the earbuds with mic then it’s OK through the headphone connection. If I switch to speaker phone mode then that’s OK too. I can record good audio while shooting video (both front and back camera/microphones) and can record good audio using other apps such as voice memo. But try to make a call then I have to use speaker phone or use headset which I don’t always have with me. I purchased the Ifixit Pro Tech tool kit and the replacement lightning connector assembly, installed it, and still find the same problem. While the phone was apart I made sure the mic ports were clear of debris. What else is suggested I try?
