Introduction

Use this guide to replace a worn-out battery in the Motorola Moto E5. If your battery is swollen, take appropriate precautions.

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.

Replacing the back cover adhesive after your repair is optional. If you choose to replace it, you’ll need to purchase pre-cut double-side tape.

  1. Prepare an iOpener and heat the back of the phone along one edge for about two minutes, or until it's slightly too hot to touch. This will help soften the adhesive securing the back cover to the phone.

    • Prepare an iOpener and heat the back of the phone along one edge for about two minutes, or until it's slightly too hot to touch. This will help soften the adhesive securing the back cover to the phone.

    • You may need to reheat and reapply the iOpener several times to get the phone warm enough to cut the adhesive. 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 internal battery is susceptible to heat damage.

  2. Apply a suction handle to the back cover, near the middle of the edge you heated up. Pull the suction cup with firm, constant pressure to create a slight gap between the phone's frame and the back cover. Insert an opening pick into the gap.

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.
