Granny's gone and done it again

Taxes settled. Didn't owe as much as I thought I would! Whoot!

Have you tried taking out the battery?

No not yet. Will have to try that later today...

It is WAY harder than that. Especially with newer iPhones, they made 3rd party repairs harder. In order to take out the battery, you would need to unscrew the nearly microscopic screws at the bottom. Then, use a heat gun to weaken the glue. After that, you have to use a little tool (Forgot the name) to open up the screen. You have to be VERY gentle here, or else you can crack the screen. 3rd, once it's opened up, you need to disconnect the screen. 4th, take the screen off, 5th, disconnect the battery, which is under some more tiny screws. 6th, there should be little white "tabs" that you can pull to take off the battery*. If done right, the battery should come off easily, except these tabs are easily broken when pulling them. Once all this is done, put in the new battery, and do these steps in reverse, with the exception of the pull tabs. Keep in mind; that if you do this at home, you take the waterproofing of the phone away.

*Can't remember super well, but I think the iPhones 12's have their battery "fused" to te phone, making it much harder to replace by yourself. Then again, i could have mistaken this for the 13's.

That took a little while

Nevermind...

Usually if they get too hot they turn themselves off before they cook. I mean unless you were mucking and left the phone in direct sunlight for hours on end…

It wasn't too long. I would say I was out for an hour, but it was probably only in the sun for 30-40minutes.

I hear ya! I walked around more than I have in months yesterday! Had fun, was tired and sure, but fun. This morning... I can't turn my neck from side to side. It's quite painful. Not sure what I did. Maybe my fibro is hitting me in a different way. .
