Original N7. Does anyone know how to replace the battery? Appears to be a sealed unit...

 

 

Or do I bin it and buy a new one?

 

 

Thanks

not user replaceable and probably marginal if it is even cost effective to get it done in shop.




Here is a crazy notion, lets give peace a chance.

Have you tried a factory reset? The one we have here (original) had shocking battery life. Something was chewing the battery and a factory reset sorted it. Also the kids watch youtube videos and I think leaving the youtube app up and hitting power off keeps the youtube app active (but not playing) and this seemed to kill the battery as well.

Cheers, Matt.




My views (except when I am looking out their windows) are not those of my employer.
