Introducción

Utiliza esta guía para reemplazar una batería gastada o muerta en su OnePlus 5T.

Si tu batería está hinchada, todas las precauciones adecuadas. Para tu seguridad, descarga la batería por debajo del 25% antes de desmontar el teléfono. Esto reduce el riesgo de un peligroso evento térmico si la batería se daña accidentalmente durante la reparación.

Necesitarás adhesivo de repuesto para volver a colocar los componentes cuando vuelva a montar el dispositivo.

OnePlus 5/5T Replacement Battery

Paso 1

Antes de comenzar, apaga el teléfono.
Remueve la bandeja de la tarjeta SIM.

Paso 2

Remueve los dos tornillos Torx T2 (2.5 mm de largo)
El OnePlus 5T no utiliza mucho adhesivo para asegurar la tapa trasera, sin embargo las abrazaderas son muy fuertes y requieren algo de fuerza durante el procedimiento de apertura.

Could you clarify the statement “The OnePlus 5T doesn't use a lot of adhesive“? Do you mean that it uses adhesive, but only a little? Or do you mean that it doesn’t use any adhesive at all to secure the back, just the clamps?

Hi Avram,

there is a little bit of adhesive underneath the edges of the back cover, however it doesn’t require heating to soften it. In case the back cover doesn’t come of straight away it won’t help to apply an iOpener to further soften the adhesive but requires a little bit more force to open the plastic clamps.

i have tried t2 srewdrivers multiple times but they doesn’t seem work, could those be different screws?

Mr Kono -

I had the same problem. I tried a T1 screwdriver, that fit perfectly.

That said, the 'tools' section of this repair doesn't mention any torx screwdriver. That should be updated to include the T2 (or T1, for me!) screwdriver.

I purchased the entire kit to do my battery replacement and found the opening tool was not capable of opening my One Plus 5t phone. I tried the tool for at least 30 minutes and couldn’t even get it started. Luckily I had a set of “plastic tools” for removing door panels from cars while doing stereo work. These tools have nice sharp points and are much longer and thicker, providing much better grip and leverage. With these tools, I had the back off the phone in just a few minutes. All the rest of the process was easy to follow and everything worked out great.

David Dery -

I have all of the necessary parts/tools for replacement. Upon removing the two screws from the bottom, one came out no problem first try. The second bolt slipped andbis now completely stripped out. Any advice?

Derek Basham -

Paso 3

Inserta una herramienta de apertura entre la pantalla y la cubierta trasera en el extremo inferior del teléfono.
Usa la herramienta de apertura para crear un espacio entre la tapa trasera y la pantalla.
Inserta una púa de apertura en el espacio que creaste con la herramienta de apertura.

Don’t make the same mistake as i did and put the opening tool between the screen and glass rather than the screen and body. Make sure its the second line from the top where you insert your tool

Hayden Rooney -

This part is very difficult, i have been trying to open the phone up, still cannot.

Taz -

The easiest way to open the back cover, is by starting from the bottom right corner, try find a plastic tool that is slim enough to go through the display and back cover.

Taz -

I too had troubles with this step. I recommend having a look at the guide for opening up the back cover of the Oneplus 5 before proceeding. It has a lot of helpful images and the instructions go into far more detail than this one does.

OnePlus 5 Back Cover Replacement

Iceblade02 -

This step was the hardest step for me. I could only succeed with suction cup pliers and a metal pry tool, which unfortunately scratched the device’s edges a little.

Haggai Eran -

I found this hard. Look carefully and use a bright light. There are two small ridges. I worked ages on the top one which isn't actually a gap. You need to work on the bottom one of the two. I used a very small metal screw driver with a thin flat blade. I pushed this in to open the gap a fraction then put a plastic tool in the now slightly opened gap and worked it round.

Duncan Putman -

For opening up the device, OnePlus 5 Back Cover Replacement that Iceblade02 mentions is excellent. The tools in the kit also correspond to it since the new kit that I received last week had no guitar picks and instead had the suction cup.

Anirudh Ramanathan -

Be sure you are getting below the screen's LOWER lip, as in the photo, as HaydenRooney mentions.

Try to minimize flexing of the screen when you are wedging, the clamps (like snaps or tabs) will demand force and you want to avoid turning that into screen flex. There are several forum posts here about device working-but-dark after a repair. Too bad user input is rather folded away on ifixit, and few will see these.

Paso 4

Desliza la púa de apertura hacia la esquina derecha inferior del teléfono.
Inserta una segunda púa de apertura y deslízala hacia la esquina inferior izquierda.

Paso 5

Desliza la púa de apertura alrededor de la esquina inferior izquierda y luego hacia arriba a lo largo del borde izquierdo del teléfono para abrir las abrazaderas de plástico que aseguran la tapa trasera.

Paso 6

Desliza la púa de apertura alrededor de la esquina inferior derecha y luego hacia arriba a lo largo del borde derecho del teléfono para abrir las abrazaderas de plástico que aseguran la tapa trasera.

Paso 7

Intenta no quitar la tapa trasera del todo todavía. Los cables flexibles del puerto de carga, de los auriculares y huella digital siguen conectados a la placa madre.
Da la vuelta al teléfono y levanta con cuidado el extremo inferior de la tapa trasera para separarlo del conjunto del teléfono. Dóblalo hacia la izquierda y manténlo en un ángulo de 80°.

Paso 8

Usa un spudger para levantar y desconectar el cable flexible de la huella digital.

Paso 9

Gira la tapa trasera alrededor de 180° y colócala para alinear el extremo inferior de la tapa trasera con el borde superior de la batería.

Paso 10

Usa un par de pinzas para quitar el pequeño escudo metálico que cubre la batería y el puerto de carga y los conectores del cable flexible de la toma de los auriculares.

Paso 11

Utiliza un spudger para levantar y desconectar el puerto de carga y el cable flexible de la toma de los auriculares.

Paso 12

Remueve la tapa trasera.

Paso 13

Usa un spudger para desconectar el cable flexible de la batería.

Paso 14

Usa un par de pinzas para desatascar y quitar el pequeño escudo metálico que cubre los conectores de los cables flexibles principales y de interconexión.
El escudo metálico se mantiene en su lugar con un adhesivo suave. En caso de que tengas problemas para quitarla, puedes aplicar un iOpener caliente para aflojar el adhesivo que hay debajo.

The main flex cable connector (step 16) came off with the metal shield and I was able to reapply without ever separating the two.

Eric Smith -

Paso 15

Usa un spudger para levantar y desconectar el cable flexible principal.

Paso 16

Dobla el cable flexible principal para tener un mejor acceso a la batería.

Paso 17

Quita la tira adhesiva verde de la batería.

Paso 18

Levanta la tira adhesiva naranja para sacar la batería de su hueco.
Aunque se supone que este tipo de tira adhesiva facilita la extracción de la batería, puede requerir algo de fuerza. En caso de que tengas problemas para retirar la batería, puedes aplicar un iOpener caliente en el centro de la pantalla, para aflojar el adhesivo que hay debajo.
Gira la batería hacia arriba en posición vertical.
Quita la batería del adhesivo que queda.
Remueve la batería.
Durante el reensamblaje, vuelve a conectar temporalmente la pila a la placa madre para ayudar a alinearla correctamente. Desconecta la batería después de que esté asentada.

Paso 19

Quita la etiqueta adhesiva de la batería de la mitad de la estructura.
Aunque no es obligatorio quitar la pegatina adhesiva, es muy recomendable usar una nueva cuando se instale una batería nueva.

How do you get a replacement for the battery adhesive sticker? It would be great if this could would have been included in the iFixit battery replacement kit (wasn't informed that it wasn't)

Rik van den Reijen -

Hi Rik,
if you can't find replacement adhesive stickers in the internet you can use thin double sided adhesive tape to secure the new battery.

my flex cable is stuck to the top of the metal protector wtf

Audrion Bird - 10/12/19

My was stuck too, but with little bit of trying and patience, I was able to separate them by holding metal with pair of tweezers and gently prying it with very thin flat screwdriver bit.

Tomas Palider -

Any place to get the battery adhesive sticker in order to replace it?

Nothing Else - 08/07/20

I removed the adhesive sticker. Is it dangerous to use the phone without one?

E S - 13/10/20

Hi E S,

are you talking about the battery adhesive? If that is the case i can say - this sticker holds the battery in place and prevents it from moving around. If there is no sticker you might hear some noice when shaking the phone because the battery is moving. However it is unlikely that the battery disconnects because of that since the connector sits under a small metal shield. Depending on the phone movement theres a tiny chance that the battery or its cable deforms or gets damaged from moving around over time. It is not necessary to replace the adhesive with an original one, however i recommend using any double sided tape or similar rather than nothing.

Dominik Schnabelrauch - 16/10/20

Dominik, following up on that other comment, is there a particular suggested tape for the battery? The replacement battery kit on ifixit does have precut tesa tape but it’s not that large tape piece from your photo.

Toh Mah - 21/10/20

Hi Toh Mah,

the adhesive in the replacement battery kit is double sided pre cut tape which works fine when replacing the battery. There is no need to use adhesive tape as large as the original one, which is a pull tab. However thinking of the battery removal I advice not to overuse any adhesive tape when putting the battery back in place (as long it’s not the original one). The original tape makes future battery removals a bit easier. In case you replace it with any other adhesive tape (too much of it) a second battery replacement becomes more complicated because of the cables running underneath the battery. I recommend to use just enough of the tape to hold the battery in place and to apply it onto the mid frame where no cables are running. In this scenario every double sided tape will do the job. Sometimes the original tape is still sticky enough to reuse it.

Dominik Schnabelrauch - 22/10/20

Thanks for the answer. I’ll go with the simple solution then.

Toh Mah - 23/10/20

Hi Dominik,

Can I use a hair dryer on the screen to heat it up the adhesive if I don’t have access to the iOpener?

Lucas Cunha - 09/11/20

Hi Lucas,

a hair dryer will do the job. However take care not to overheat your phone. Heat to screen a little and check if you can remove the battery. If not, repeat the procedure.

Dominik Schnabelrauch - 12/11/20

Hi Dominik, i am in the process of replacing my battery but the backcover does not budge. I am using the same tools :-/

Do you have any tips?

thanks!

Karel Claes - 18/11/20

Good, helpful guide. After some frustration I managed to remove the case and old battery in preparation for fitting a new battery. All good.

Jim Norman - 04/02/21

Just went through the process and it was successful. Thanks for your guide, very helpful! The most stressful part was to open the screen without crashing the glass, but it was more resistant than I thought originally

Luis Enrique -

The #00 Phillips screw (2.8 mm long) in step 10 did not need to be removed.

Hosoe Shinji -

I can't get my cover back on. It seems the battery is slightly thicker than the original

Justin Gall -

I also had problems with this. I checked by eye and the two batteries had the same height. After taking it apart twice and try to put back the back cover many times I managed to click it in all the way. Keep trying!

Mód Márton -

Worked flawlessly! Thank YOU! <3

João Gouveia -

Hi,

Anyone know what are the manufacturing dates of OP 5T batteries from ifixit?

I need to replace mine soon and don't want to get old batteries.

Thanks.

eziokiller47 -

I just replaced one for my 4+ year old 5T and Accubattery shows the health of the battery at 70% after 10 sessions. I'm quite disappointed since the original battery was ~ 75% health.
