In this repair video, my twin brother and I tackle an iPhone 8 Plus with a dead battery—and a tricky twist. The screen connectors were glued down, making it risky to remove everything. Instead of forcing them and risking damage, we worked around the issue by replacing the battery while leaving the glued connectors in place.
We’ll walk you through:
Safely opening the iPhone 8 Plus
Disconnecting only what’s needed
Carefully handling glued-down connectors without prying them off
Removing the old battery and installing a new one
Reassembling while keeping the phone fully functional
If you’ve ever been stuck on a repair where parts are glued or stubborn, this video shows how patience and strategy can save the day.
