iPhone 8 Vervanging van de voorste camera en sensorkabel

I already replaced my iPhone 8 battery with one from iFixit and honestly I wasn't impressed. It worked well for a few months, but then I started noticing the peak performance capability dropping significantly thereafter. I followed the initial charging instructions to a tee and only let it drop below 20% once a month. Normal everyday use for me... no intense apps like games, etc. I considered having Apple do it this time around, but for these older models they don't keep the batteries in-stock and you have to give them your phone for up to a week. So in the end, I opted to try another battery from iFixit instead. Hopefully this one will last longer.

tripmusic -

Does it lasted longer ?

How with the gigantic kit do I not have a 3 1/2 pentalobe driver the very first screwdriver I reach for and that I need is not in any of these kits. What’s up with that?

Michael Stephens -

Same problem. The kit comes with a screw driver, but not for this pentalobe screw. This is a problem.

Yuji Ishitsuka -

I had to search what screwdriver bit I had to use from the ifixit toolkit; it's the P2 bit. (Maybe it's more obvious if you bought the battery kit, because it only has one type of pentalobe screwdriver.)

Stap 2

De volgende twee stappen introduceren de Anti-Klem, een handige tool die we aanraden aan iedereen die regelmatig reparaties uitvoert. Als je de Anti-Klem niet gebruikt, sla dan de volgende drie stappen over voor een alternatieve methode.
Voor uitgebreider instructies voor het gebruik van de Anti-Klem, lees je deze handleiding door.
Trek de blauwe hendel naar achteren zodat de anti-klem vrij kan bewegen. (Op deze manier deactiveer je de openingsstand van de anti-klem.)
Schuif de armen over de linker- of rechterzijde van je iPhone.
Plaats de zuignappen dichtbij de onderkant van de telefoon—één op de voorkant en één aan de achterkant.
Druk beide zuignappen aan, om zuigkracht uit te oefenen op de gewenste plek.
Als het oppervlak waarop de zuignappen zich moeten vastzuigen te glad is, kun je wat tape gebruiken voor meer grip.

Stap 3

Trek het blauwe handvat naar voren om de armen van de anti-klem te vergrendelen.
Draai het handvat 360 graden met de klok mee of tot de zuignappen uit beginnen te rekken.
Zorg dat de zuignappen op één lijn met elkaar zitten voordat je begint met het openen van het toestel. Als je ziet dat de zuignappen niet meer op één lijn zitten, maak je ze los en breng je ze weer op de juiste positie aan.

Stap 4

Verwarm een iOpener en plaats deze tussen de armen van de anti-klem op je telefoon.
Je kunt ook een föhn, heteluchtpistool, of een kookplaat gebruiken, maar wees bij het gebruik hiervan extra voorzichtig. Te veel warmte kan tot warmteschade leiden. Vooral het scherm en de batterij zijn hier erg vatbaar voor.
Vouw de iOpener zodat deze op de onderkant van de iPhone komt te liggen.
Geef de lijm een minuutje de tijd om los te komen zodat de anti-klem een opening kan creëren.
Steek een plectrum in de opening onder het scherm.
Als de anti-klem er niet in slaagt een opening te creëren die groot genoeg is voor je plectrum gebruik je meer warmte en draai je het blauwe handvat een kwartslag met de klok mee.
Draai het handvat nooit verder dan een kwartslag per keer en wacht een minuut voordat je de anti-klem weer besluit aan te draaien. Laat de anti-klem het werk voor je doen.
Sla de volgende drie stappen over.

it looks like a....

Gergely Soki -

Stap 5

De volgende drie stappen laten je zien hoe je het scherm opent met behulp van een enkele zuignap.
Het verwarmen van de onderkant van de iPhone helpt de lijm, die het scherm op z'n plek houdt, te verzachten, wat het makkelijker maakt om de telefoon te openen.
Gebruik een föhn of een warmtepistool, of prepareer een iOpener en leg deze op de onderkant van de iPhone gedurende ongeveer 90 seconden om zo de lijm die eronder zit te verzachten.

No hair dryer so GENTLY heated over stove burner

John Toth - 13/10/20

Hello,

What temperature is suitable for removing the front display ? I bought i-Fixit ProTech which is not include the heating "roller" . Thanks for help

Jiří Sítko - 28/01/21

I was about to ask the same Question...

Enno Winch -

Ich habe eine heiße Wärmflasche verwendet. Das hat gut funktioniert :-)

Moritz Hartges - 18/04/21

I laid my phone face-down on my 3D printer’s heated bed, and set the temperature to 60 C. After a few minutes, it was ready to loosen.

Nate B -

Hey, that's smart !

If you don’t have an “iOpener” or heat gun, try using an electric heating pad. I have a small $11 pad I got at CVS for my knee. On medium heat it worked fine for removal and with the “pennies” for setting the new seal.

Pete P -

I used a heated tea kettle and a tea towel, it worked!

Adam Yavner -

I put on the furnace vent for 10 minutes to get it warm to the touch but not hot.

terrelldoc -

I attached it to the after burner of my rocket ship and that worked.

Matt Brown -

I'm holding mine just above an erupting volcano but I'm still waiting to see if it has worked. How long does it need?

Paul Aron -

It won't work if you don't throw it in the lava.

I used a water-filled ziploc bag, heated it in microwave. fast, cheap, worked.

John Barker -

Hairdryer works fine for this step. No issues.

tripmusic -

Agree! Just did it for 2 times to make sure I didn't overheat the phone.

André Lopes -

The most effective way to heat up the glue is to leave the phone in full sun - if it's available. In fact I would always wait for a sunny day to repair any glued together Apple device. The heat will be very even and the phone was probably designed to survive anything the sun can throw at it - although it can get very warm. (I'm in the UK) If you leave the phone turned on it will give a warning if it goes near the temperature limit.

John -

I'm sorry but I tried both the hair dryer (for 3 minutes!) and the eye opener (also 3 minutes) and no luck. Not even a hint of loosening the adhesive holding down the display!! Do I send this kit back for a refund or what??!!

No luck, guys. 3 minutes of hair drying and 3 minutes heating up the iopener. What next?

Okay, a half hour later i finally got the screen loose, but not after super heating it for at leat 10 minutes with a hair drying and burning my hand trying to pry it open. Also, watch out for the power button because it inadvertently keeps switching the phone back on while you wrestle with it. More later . . .

. . . and now I need to buy a new phone!!! the cable broke as I was trying to unscrew one of the top screws, so thanks! I FIXed IT but Good!!!!

Nate B's advice was key. I couldn't get the temperature of the display hot enough to break the seal with a hair dryer. A heat gun set to low speed and 550F (287C) got the display up to just over 130F, close to the 60C Nate mentioned.

Matt C -

This part was actually much easier than I thought. I used a hair dryer on max for 2 minutes on each side of the phone, less than half an inch away from the phone, just on the bottom half. It was hot! Screen came right out!

Nuno Lopes -

I used a tube sock full of about 1 cup of white rice. Tied a knot in the top of the sock. Put the sock of rice in the microwave on 60% power for 1 minute. Kept doing this until the temp felt right. Put the sock of rice down, put bottom edge on sock, then covered w/ other half of the sock/rice. Put a piece of paper towel between phone and sock/rice to absorb any moisture. When lifting up on front panel, I rested the phone on the sock/rice. Worked nicely once I got the temp of the rice high enough.
(threw the rice away later :-) )

Burning Sensation -

“Threw the rice away later” has to be the best advice here. I wrapped my phone in a small heating pad and turned it up to 6 of 8. Worked great in 5 min or less! No need for water bottles, microwaves, heat guns, volcanoes, …. I kept the heating pad later ; )

dantegd -

I popped my iPhone under a desk lamp with a 60w filament light bulb in it, switched it on, (See this photo) then read the iFixIt instructions and comments. By the time I’d done that, the glue had softened enough to start work. I managed to do the whole process, slowly and methodically, without incident. The iPhone even worked after I’d put it all back together. So we’ll done iFixIt. Another satisfied customer!

Tony Houlihan -

Stap 6

Druk een zuignap op de onderste helft van het voorste paneel, net boven de thuisknop.
Zorg dat de zuignap niet overlapt met de thuisknop, aangezien dit ervoor zal zorgen dat de zuignap zich niet vast kan zuigen aan het scherm.

Even with using high heat from a blow dryer, I had to put the suction cup over the home button or the bottom edge wouldn’t lift at all. That waterproof adhesive is incredibly strong.

Aaron Soderholm - 04/12/20

As others have said, this part really stinks, but it’ll work if you keep trying. Agree with multiple rounds of hair dryer on high (did about 60-90s each time), and with having to out the suction cup over the home button. You don’t need a big gap to pry it open - it’ll be slight …

Johnny Emrica -

Patience is the key here. Expletives and patience. Like previous comments say, putting the suction cup over the home button (I used packing tape to maintain the seal) will allow you to apply force to the proper location to separate the screen. Good luck!

J Rawlinson -

Get a suction cup pliers. It’ll make this part fun

Bradley Steiner -

iSclack EVO opened the iPhone easily even without heating with no fear of accidentally over-opening it like with a simple suction cup.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=25zAK5mG...

If you don't have the anti-clamp device, to prevent the screen from tearing open when suctioning it, I suggest some layers of tape around it and the back of the phone (the tape has to be stretchy enough to just minimise the momentum when separating the screen), or some big rubberbands

Raziocinjo -

This was the time consuming part. I’d recommend having a thin bladed knife or similar to get things going. I used the small blade on my Swiss Army knife, but be careful. When it goes, it can be unexpectedly sudden. I also used a strong rubber band to stop any excessive opening of the screen.

Tony Houlihan -

Stap 7

Trek de zuignap omhoog met een stevige, constante kracht om zo een kleine opening tussen het voorste paneel en het frame van de telefoon te creëren.
Steek een openingsplectrum in de opening.
De waterdichte lijm die het scherm op z'n plek houdt is erg sterk; het creëren van de opening kan dus heel wat kracht vereisen. Als je moeite hebt met het openen van de telefoon, dien dan meer warmte toe en wiebel het scherm op en neer om de lijm te verzachten totdat de opening groot genoeg is voor je tool.

The screen on my phone was so broken, a suction cup did not work, so I softened the adhesive with a blow dryer and used a Jimmy to carefully pry open the phone from the bottom just enough to slip a pick in.

charguy - 31/05/18

Just completed a smashed screen replacement, this is probably the most time consuming part. Used packing tape to cover the screen to help create a suction surface (had to replace it a couple times because it pulls away after a purple good pulls ) Used consistent heat for about 5 minutes, then stuck a pick in the tiniest opening… and pry pry pry!

Brian Gill - 29/09/19

I failed at this step. No amount of heating, pulling, and rocking opened up enough of a gap to slip in even a knife let alone the blue plastic tool. That's with a phone that has an undamaged screen - just trying to replace the battery. Apple won this round :(

Michael Sherman - 31/05/21

Be really careful here. I placed a sucker to the front and rear to help lever off the screen. However, the whole thing came away much easier than I anticipated and I ripped the front part completely away from the rear, tearing all three connector cables. New iPhone required.

Chris Wood -

Note that the opening pick they show here does not appear to come with the kit, which is a bummer! The plunger, the mini blue crowbar thing, these are too thick. I ended up using a really thin guitar pick.

Johnny Emrica -

Following careful methods can mostly preserve the seal and reusable. Won’t be as water tight but probably still pretty good.

Bottom edge is pull up with suction + separating tool. Use small precision scissor to cut any tape that gets overly stretched upon initial opening.

- For the 2 long edges, use an exacto knife to separate the seal from the screen. This keeps the tape on the chassis. Go slow along the long sides. Becareful to avoid scratching the paint on underside of the screen’s edge.

- Top corners have a thick sealed tape. Best to just use separating tool to twist it open.

In summary, top and bottom edge use separating tool. Side long edges can use exacto knife to gradually gently separate the seal from underside of the screen’s edge.

Howard -

4 picks and an exacto knife, plus 45 minutes later, I finally got it to open! Thanks tor the tip!

Cat -

Intact screen, check. Tool kit, check. Hair dryer hot enough to make the phone too hot to touch, check. Following all instructions, check. Screen still in place and refusing to come off, check.

I heated, reheated, pulled and pulled. I simply could not get it off. Worked at it for an hour and a half, and I’m not a small guy. Yes it is hard to hold, but could get a grip. Just could not get it to budge. Off to the iPhone repair shop tomorrow. Anybody want to buy a repair kit and replacement battery?

Jim Meyers -

After struggling for 30m, I looked up some alternate methods and found this helpful:

- I used a utility knife and pried up right under the home button

- the angle matters! I was trying to go too far down before going in. The top surface of the phone is rather thin, so you go in after barely getting under the chassis lip

- tilt utility knife left to right once you’ve got it under to work it in

- leave the utility knife in, and now add that pick

Jared Wilk -

Pro-tip: don't be an idiot like me. Instead, remove the screen protector you have on the phone before applying the suction cups. Derp.

hunter.geofizz -

I struggled with a hair dryer at first and a singular suction cup. However, I tried putting packing tape on the spot where I put the suction job (even though my screen isn't cracked) and I was able to do it first try with ease. Definitely recommend packing tape.

Alessio Toniolo -

Suction cup pliers. Dead easy

Bradley Steiner -

After successful screen replacement, returning to give my thanks here. Excellent tips from you all - if you’re using force, you’re doing it wrong. Heat, very very gentle exact-o knife barely down then fully under the screen below the home button … perfect. Slow and patient around the upper corners, and don’t forget to heat there as well! Thank you all!

dantegd -

The problems with this step are (1) not having three hands and (2) managing to hold the phone in a way that doesn't put reverse pressure somewhere else on the screen. Exacto knife was the best tip. It's a little dangerous. On a misstep you may scratch the screen or jab yourself, but it's what got me in.

thewrytstf - 12/02/24

sorry, could not lift off the display any nano-meter even after applying enough force I think and heating it up. need to visit a store.

Andi Tony -

I used a razor blade and plenty of heat, and it somehow worked like a charm at the cost of me cutting myself. Definitely be careful when doing this, I used the razor blade on the left side of the iphone then wedged in a small screwdriver and then used the pick to cut the rest of the material away.

Sharaf Kazi -

Stap 8

Schuif je openingsplectrum langs de linkerkant van de telefoon omhoog, beginnend bij de onderkant en in de richting van de volumeknoppen en de stilteknop, en snijd onderweg alle lijm door die het scherm op z'n plek houdt.
Stop in de buurt van de linker bovenhoek van het scherm.
Probeer de bovenkant van het scherm niet los te wrikken van de achterste behuizing, aangezien deze wordt vastgehouden door middel van plastic klemmen die kunnen breken.

My Plektrum worked ok, but the edges broke off a bit towards the end

griffin.weber -

Stap 9

Er loopt een aantal makkelijk te beschadigen kabels langs de rechterkant van de iPhone. Steek je plectrum daar niet in de opening om te voorkomen dat je je toestel beschadigt.

I was trying to replace my battery, and accidentally cut one of the cords on my screen. I marked my pick, so i don't know how it happened.

Gib Jeffries -

Stap 10

Steek je openingsplectrum opnieuw in de rechter onderhoek van de iPhone en schuif deze nu langs de rechterzijkant omhoog. Snijd ook hier alle lijm door die je onderweg tegenkomt.
Steek je plectrum ook hier niet dieper dan 3 mm in de opening om te voorkomen dat je de schermkabels beschadigt.

No pick in the kit you sent me.

Ted Cooper -

Stap 11

Trek met beleid aan de zuignap om zo de onderkant van het scherm op te tillen.
Til het scherm niet meer dan 15º omhoog of je riskeert het afklemmen of afscheuren van de lintkabels die het scherm verbinden.
Trek aan het kleine lipje op de zuignap om deze van het voorste paneel te kunnen verwijderen.

Stap 12

Steek een openingsplectrum onder het scherm en schuif deze langs de linker onderhoek en linkerzijde omhoog om de laatste lijm door te snijden.

I did end up using just a smidge of IFIXIT adhesive remover along the edge before opening and that seemed to really help

Karen Flowers -

I have been using the pointed tweezers to pull the adhesive strands apart and out as the display comes off.

Adam Yavner -

This bit was awkward as to get a good grip I kept inadvertently switching the %#*@ phone on!

wendyhoward -

Stap 13

Schuif de schermmodule een beetje omlaag (weg van de bovenkant van de telefoon) om deze los te krijgen uit de klemmen die het scherm aan de achterste behuizing bevestigen.

I had trouble sliding down the display and found I hadn't separated the stop enough.

Jeffrey Anderson -

When you are pulling the display downward, be very careful! I pulled a little too hard and the display cables tore from the downward (toward home button) motion. Now I have to replace the display! 😭

So Munch Love -

Stap 14

Open de iPhone door het scherm van de linkerkant naar rechts te kantelen, alsof je de achterste kaft van een boek opent.
Probeer het scherm nog niet volledig los te koppelen, aangezien deze nog steeds aan het logic board van de iPhone verbonden is met een aantal kwetsbare lintkabels.
Om het scherm open te houden en aan de telefoon te kunnen werken, kun je het scherm tegen een object laten leunen.

Nach RECHTS klappen - nicht nach links!

Manfred Wachtel - 12/05/20

Als ich das Flachbandkabel auf der rechten Seite sah, hab ich mich auch gefragt, ob die das mit nach Links klappen ernst meinen, und das „Buch“ lieber auf japanische Art nach rechts aufgeklappt. Das sollte dringend in der Anleitung korrigiert werden!

Sebastian Plickert - 23/04/21

“Up from the left” means lift up the left side.

Which is the same as folding to the right.

“Like the back cover of a book” explains it even more clearly.

Maybe it gets lost in translation?

Nick Shtangey -

Fold to THE RIGHT - not to the left!

Jim Glenys -

When I saw the ribbon cable on the right side, I also wondered if they were serious about folding it to the left, and the "book" would rather be opened to the right in the Japanese way.This should be corrected urgently in the manual!

Jim Glenys -

Hi Jim, the display opens from the left side, toward the right side. It should look like the back cover of a book. Hope this helps. Good luck with the repair!

Adam O'Camb -

DO NOT LAY THE TWO HALVES FLAT!!! There is a reason why the third photo shows the screen half leaning against a box! This really needs to be a warning in addition to the one about not separating the display.

Mangled Jargon -

If you're skipping the screen and taptic engine removal like I did, I suggest you tape the back of the phone to the table, and also tape the screen to the vertical object it lays on, so it stays still. That way you will avoid having to constantly readjust it because of the sliding of the housing of the phone when you're working on it. Be careful where you're putting the tape on the screen though, if you're doing it on the internal components.

Gebruik de punt van een spudger om de batterijaansluitinguit het contact op het logic board omhoog te duwen.
Buig de kabel van de batterijaansluiting voorzichtig weg van het logic board om te voorkomen dat deze per ongeluk contact maakt met het contact en de telefoon inschakelt tijdens de reparatie.

Make sure you pry the battery connector off from the right hand side as shown in the picture. Theres a delicate component on the logicboard near the battery connector called a Mosfet which is linked to the battery charging software. If you knock it off accidently you’ll loose battery charging and the phone will boot loop and youll need to have it re-soldered back on.

Gareth - 23/08/20

I can confirm this as I learned my lesson by unknowingly prying the mosfet off. The phone will not charge now and is useless. I really wish they would add a note about this on Step 12 as a warning.

Jeff -

So this is it. You don’t have to go any further removing the screen. You can replace the battery right from this point.

John M - 02/12/20

I wish I saw this comment 2 hours ago

Kenneth Moore - 12/05/21

If I have to repeat this, I'd also consider removing replacing the battery at this point. The loose display must be then carefully fixed so the connectors don't break. And then it is not possible to re-attach the waterproof seal.

The waterproof seal was included in the kit, but there were no instructions for it so I now skipped that. I later found YouTube video which seems to describe it (starting at 7:40):

This is where I broke my phone, a phone that was working quite well, paid for in full. Just because I had a cracked screen. Be super careful when connecting the cables. I was in a hurry and not paying attention, used too much force when re-connecting and broke those teeny little pins that could not be repaired. A tech tried for an hour to no avail. cautionary tale. Good luck

Karen Flowers -

The display ribbon is a certain length and allows for some give, but behind it is hidden the Home button/TouchID ribbon, which sits against what amounts to a razor blade. This ribbon is much more taut than the display one, and therefore you have far less freedom of movement than you think you do. This is absolutely an intentional trap to discourage replacing your own battery. Quite frankly, it’s despicable.

Anyway, so beware of that, because although I was very careful and did not even swing the screen very far (not more than 90°), the Home button ribbon tore and now needs to be serviced. Home button is disabled now.

Apple should be ashamed of themselves for this. Please do look at the legislation effort that people are doing to try to get this kind of sabotage illegal, as well as all sorts of other gimmicks they pull. For a company that makes phenomenal products, they’re controlling like an abusive spouse.

Dan Knight

daniel -

That happened to me and I could not figure out how it got broken. It's the home button and fingerprint reader.

But I'm not bothering to get it fixed and I'm not replacing the entire screen. I went into system prefs/accessibility and activated the on-screen home button. Oh, well.

Mangled Jargon -

I cannot get the new battery reconnected to the connection port. Any tips/tricks? New and old battery connections appear similar. It wasn't difficult to disconnect to old battery.

Robert Ast -

Some reports here seem to indicate that the battery must be the very last connector to re-connect because otherwise there might be malfunction in some display components?

It wasn't difficult to disconnect to old battery. But the most difficult part for me was to get the new battery reconnected to the connection port. I tried many times to carefully position and press it down with my fingertip or the flat end of the spudger but it did not hold its position. Maybe I pressed too weak because I was afraid breaking the connector and the mosfet above (?) it. But finally to my surprise it connected (at that point I temporarily booted the iPhone with the loose display to verify that the battery was connected). Whew, it succeeded!

Regal see iPhone 8 Vervanging van de voorste camera en sensorkabel iPhone 8 Vervanging van de voorste camera en sensorkabel

The connectors have very little "click" to them when they do seat properly, and are covered with soft foam. Very challenging to attach them by feel, and having the screen propped up, blocks light from exactly where you need it.

Steve Trotman -

Make sure the new battery connector cable has similar length and width to the one of the original battery. I got a third party battery and the cable was longer and not folded in a "U" way near the connector, like the one in the genuine battery was, only folded at a 90 degree angle. That "U" actually perfectly fits in the small space between battery and connector port, so the cable doesn't stick up thus making connecting it or closing the screen impossible. So fold the cable, connect it, and while holding it to prevent it from disconnecting, stick the battery so the "U" curve of the cable sits down just between battery and connector port.

Gebruik de punt van een spudger om de onderste schermaansluiting uit het contact omhoog te duwen.
Om drukaansluitingen zoals deze weer aan te sluiten, positioneer je deze totdat op z'n plek lijkt te zitten en duw je één kant van de aansluiting omlaag tot deze vastklikt, om vervolgens hetzelfde te doen aan de andere kant. Druk niet op het midden, want als de aansluiting verkeerd zit, zul je de pinnen buigen en zo schade veroorzaken.

I broke the lower display connector. Is it possible to replace that part separately or do I need to buy a full screen replacement?

Warning: Don't overheat the iPhone, or you may accidentally ignite the battery.

I think the temperature was around 60 DegC.

Extreme Caution: Do Not overheat. I use my hand to gauge the hotness. Careful not to burn yourself or the board.

I was able to pull out all the white adhesive tapes easily as the adhesive soften.

DO NOT TRY this method if you are a novice or inexperience! I am not responsible if you hurt yourself or damage your iphone!

Hey John! I’m glad the repair worked out for you!

From our research, applying heat does soften the adhesive strips, but it also causes them to lose structural integrity and break more easily. That’s why we normally suggest using heat after the strips are already broken. Removing the Taptic Engine definitely takes a few extra steps, but we feel that it gives fixers the best chance of pulling out the adhesive strips intact.

I agree with John, skip 18 through 27. These are to make it easier to remove the battery adhesive. I replaced the batteries on two IPhone 8s. The first one I did all that stuff and the adhesive still broken and I had to carefully pry the battery out anyway. When I reassembled the phone the Home button no longer worked. Looking it up, this is apparently fairly common due to all the fragile wires involved in these steps. The second I skipped these steps and when I reassembled it everything worked fine. Not one of the eight (both phones) adhesive strips came out properly. I fully drained the batteries before doing the repairs. By the way, I use the virtual home button on the one phone, it’s a little annoying, but the phone is still usable if you’re not ready to shell out for a new phone.

I also skipped removing the Taptic Engine. I could only half-way pull the lower battery tapes and completely the upper tapes after carefully prying them loose with the tweezer. I then used a hair-dryer for a minute to warm the battery and the other side of the phone (I used my other hand to make sure I did not apply too much heat. Make sure you do not blow the tiny loose screws away with the hair dryer!) and then slowly lifted the upper battery somewhat with the Opening pics tool, then re-heated the lower remaining tapes and quite easily lifted the battery out.

I had bought two-sided tape to reconnect the battery but it had the tapes pre-installed (I wonder if it is necessary to tape the battery at all?).
