    Replacing iPhone 4S battery

    So after 18 or so moths of use my iPhone battery seems to have had it, so how hard is it to replace the 4s's battery? The kits on amazon/eBay seems simple enough, looking at the guides it's only 4 screws, with only trouble possibly being the battery connector? So anybody had any problems...

    For the past few months I have had an issue with the battery draining even though brand new. The alternator is new (recon) so I can only assume something is draining it when the car is left off overnight? There has been an ongoing fault for some time which I can never find the route cause of...

    battery light on (alternator fault)

    When ticking over the battery light comes on and when at low revs when adding electrical load (lights and fans etc) I'm pretty sure the alternator is dead as I had this problem around 9 months ago and I swapped the alternator and it was fine again. I took the alternator to a repair place and...
