Finished this about a month ago, took me about 2 hours. This guide was essential to my doing it, the details here are impeccable. The comments that followed each step were extremely helpful. So far so good, the renewed device is working flawlessly to this day. Can't thank you enough, saved me close to $200 in labor alone, plus the battery which I found for about $180. Half price is a great deal!
While currently out of stock here, I suggest Amazon or Ebay, the latter will be the greater risk of getting something that is unusable, but is notably cheaper than Amazon (both offer used parts only, not new; naturally, there will be no new parts for this model. I got mine from Ebay, and it worked out just fine. Protect yourself from bad actors hawking junk, and always contact the seller before forking over any of your own funds! Check if they accept returns, too, since many don't and then you're S.O.L., which is far from LOL
Can anyone inform me how to add my success with this guide to the stats displayed below?
