Iphone 4 battery replacement kit - This arrived very quickly. I had a problem right away as the 2 torx screw bits supplied (numbers 3 and 5) didn't fit my phone. But I found a torx no.1 elsewhere and that fit perfectly. Sadly some previous dingbat had stripped one of my screws so it wouldn't come out. I got it out by drilling a very tiny hole in the screw, which gave the phillips screw bit something to grab. Only the screw head came out but thankfully I could get the phone cover off. (The remaining stripped screw I got out with some needle-nosed pliers.) Everything went smoothly from there and the battery seems to be working very well.

I've had the battery fitted to my phone and at the moment, it certainly works - so great. However the delivery was not so great! It was sent by FedEx International Priority - however firstly I was not given a tracker number. Secondly the parcel was delayed because my flat number had apparently not been included by FedEx on the parcel. It took over a week to get to me, then only cos I chased it

Unfortunately the microwaveable heat pouch was useless in weakening the glue and ended up going out and buying a heat gun which made things much quicker. The toolkit wasn’t worth the money at all. Once done my replacement screen failed to stick, despite been held in place with clamps overnight, all stick is lost and it falls off. Going to send it to a shop to fix so this has been a waste.
Standard of packaging was excellent, the guide to help replace the screen also excellent... The screen, after a few hours, seems to be faulty... I have contacted iFixit so time will tell how well they support their customers when, as can happen, things don't go to plan...

Too long for delivery. It seemed it was customs related but still was delivered late
