Before you begin, download the Rescue and Smart Assistant app to backup your device and diagnose whether your problem is software or hardware related.
For your safety, discharge your existing battery below 25% before disassembling your phone. This reduces the risk of a dangerous thermal event if the battery is accidentally damaged during the repair.

отлично! долго не хотел его делать без инструкции.
For step #14, I had 15 screws on my midframe as it covered the entire bottom of the phone and didn’t taper down like yours did. Otherwise, the guide was great with no surprises, thanks.
Danke für die gute Anleitung. Zwar mußte ich einiges am Anfang anders machen, da der Akku schon hie Rückwand aufgesprengt hatte. Aber es hat sich gelohnt.
Anzumerken sei nur, das beim Werkzeug eine kleine selbsthaltende Pinzette günstig währe. Ich hatte eine solche in meinem Bestand und die hat mir beim Zusammenbau gut geholfen.
Mal sehen ob das Handy nach dem Akkuschaden wieder voll funktioniert.
Danke allen die so eine gute Beschreibung geliefert haben.
