My battery is useless.

I'm aware of ifixit.com but dunno if they're dependable?

I'm sure you can find youtube vids which will guide you step by step on how to replace a new one.

Oh yeah heaps of them around. I'm more concerned with the dependability of the batteries, don't want a DIY one to blow up in my ears! I ordered a kit, will update when I replace my battery :lol:

Oh I managed to do it with a kit from fixit.com, extremely stressful! It's crazy how miniaturized everything is!
