baddodaddo Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 Hi, I have an iPhone 4s and I was changing the battery in it and the battery connector socket has come off the motherboard. Does anybody know of a phone shop etc who could put me a new socket on or solder the old one back on. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks, Michael.

Ghozer Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 (edited) It all depends if there is any damage to the board - as it could have ripped some of the track up - or one of the solder pads.. try http://www.fonefunshop.co.uk/cable_picker/96867_iPhone_4s_Charging_Port_Repair_Service.html or http://www.fonefunshop.co.uk/cable_picker/97560_iPhone_4_/_4s_Battery_Connector_Repair_Service.html Edited March 13, 2015 by Ghozer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steroc Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 (edited) Luckily the dock connector isn't connected directly to the logic board, it's connected by a snap on ribbon cable. It is a fairly easy replacement for anyone who likes tinkering with that kind of thing. There are guide videos on YouTube and the parts are relatively cheap. http://www.replacebase.co.uk/iphone-4s-original-replacement-dock-port-cable-with-microphone---black-1763-p.asp Edit: Sorry completely misread your opening post. Thought you meant the charger port. Ignore my comment. Edited March 14, 2015 by steroc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baddodaddo Posted March 18, 2015 Author Share Posted March 18, 2015 Hi again. Ghozer the link you gave me was invaluable as FoneFunShop repaired the iPhone in a matter of hours and it is now fully working again! Thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
