1 Bypass battery instructions? Use wall charger only w/o battery...
I'd like to get rid of the battery in my 4S and run directly off of the wall charger. I use the phone as a wireless IP camera and it does a great job, but I've gone through three batteries exploding on me already. It is my old work phone, which I'm allowed to keep and use, but not sell (legal issues).
Is there a way to get the phone to THINK there is a battery installed, let it boot, and have wifi work - without installing yet another battery? I've read some posts with "bypass instructions" but those were for broken pad connectors - and though I have soldering experience, I would still like some hand holding for specific details/points if possible.

I would be concerned about why three batteries have exploded--that is not normal. iphone 4s batteries should last for years for the cost of about $5. If your history suggests that you should expect a $5 battery to blow up, then that is concerning.

Well at least you didn't tell me to sell it :) It's been plugged in ALL day every day for 1.5 years now... that's why I want to ditch the batteries and go "corded". Battery expansion happens with ANY iPhone that's plugged in all day for months at a time.

No it doesn't happen unless there is something seriously wrong with your phone.

Well I must have something seriously wrong with two 3GS's, the main 4S, my iPhone 5, as well as my iPhone 5S which has only been plugged in for three months... seriously - lets stay focused on the point of this thread instead of arguing over if the phone is bad or not... :)
I'm just looking for instructions on how to bypass the circuitry to make the iPhone think there's a battery plugged in when there's not. There's only four pins - are two for charging and two for usage? I've seen great help on these forums before... very detailed and precise instructions. Anybody like that reading this thread?

If you remove the battery contact post from an old battery
(carefully Ripping/desoldering it off the old battery, some are removable and some are hard wired)
and hardwire from the charging post on the phone to the power posts of the battery contact. Get a zener didoce for the voltage of the battery and install it across these points paying attention to polarity. Then install a 10W resistor (your battery resistance will vary) to the battery sense pins on the battery contact. This will trick the phone into thinking it has a battery and it’s not over heating,
Note that the battery contact configuration will be diferent from phone to phone.
