    • Before you begin, turn off your phone.

    • Heat an iOpener and apply it to the left edge of the phone for two minutes.

    • You may need to reheat and reapply the iOpener several times to get the phone warm enough. Follow the iOpener instructions to avoid overheating.

    • A hair dryer, heat gun, or hot plate may also be used, but be careful not to overheat the phone—the display and internal battery are both susceptible to heat damage.

    • As you wait, take note of the the following areas:

    • Display cable—be careful not to slice too deeply near the edge here, or you may damage the display cable.

    • Fingerprint sensor cable—be careful not to slice too deeply near the edge here, or you may damage the fingerprint sensor cable.

I want to change my motorola x4 mobile's battery. Where should I go to get the better service (means the original battery and the best service centre)?

Himadri Shekhar Nandi - Contestar

My battery keeps overheating and drains quickly. I did everything to close background apps to no avail. Does that mean I need new battery?

Traude Schwerzler - Contestar

Hi Traude,

It may be that your battery is damaged and is has a minor internal short. This can cause the battery to drain and overheat. Replacing the battery would be the first thing I’d try. However, it may also be a motherboard problem.

Replaced my moto x4 battery last night as a father daughter project. It was brilliant fun, thank you.
