How do I replace the battery in an iPhone 3 and how much does it cost?

I have a 2yr old iphone 3 that needs a new battery - how do I sort this out best?

iPhones are not user servicable.
Apple does not sale parts.
Apple will replace the battery for $79US, but frankly, replacing that ancient device would make more financial sense.

  • HT201210 Just replaced the battery in my iPhone 4S.  Before doing so I backed-up then wiped the phone.  Now when I go to restore it, it gets about 3/4 done and that is when I get an error message, "Code 1." does this mean I fried it??  :-(

    Hey joshuafromisr,
    If you resintall iTunes, it should fix the issue. The following document will go over how to remove iTunes fully and then reinstall. Depending on what version of Windows you're running you'll either follow the directions here:

  • HT4060 How much does it cost to replace an iPad 2 battery?

    My iPad 2 is almost three years old and won't recharge. How much does it cost to replace the battery? I have data in my apps and games that I would like to keep. If I buy a new iPad coming soon, will I lose all of my in-apps and in-game data? Is it cost effective to replace the battery? Looking for advice. Thanks.

    In the U.S. ....

    Your one-year warranty includes replacement coverage for a defective battery. You can extend your coverage to two years from the date of your iPad purchase with the AppleCare Protection Plan for iPad. During the plan’s coverage period, Apple will replace the battery if it drops below 50% of its original capacity. If it is out of warranty, Apple offers abattery replacement for $99, plus $6.95 shipping, subject to local tax. Apple disposes of your battery in an environmentally friendly manner.
    You have to be the judge of whether it is cost effective to you. You can backup all of your app data with iTunes or iCloud and restore from the backup if you get a new iPad - and then all of your data and game saves should be restored. You should not lose your in-app purchases either as they are stored in the backup.
    If you have had an iPad for almost 3 years, I would hope that you have been backing up all along. If you sync with iTunes all of you apps and other media are stored in there, and iTunes has been backing up your iPad when you sync. Paid content can be downloaded again for free (in most cases) as long as you use the same Apple ID that you bought it with.

    It seems like I just missed the interval for the hard disk replacement program. I purchased in March 2009 a 24 inch Intel iMac . How much does it cost to have apple support at an Apple Store replace a hard drive?

    My hard drive continually has the floating beach ball and will take massive time to fulfill a request. And then will not boot up...so then I have to do a restore and rebuild hard drive from a past saved time machine version. Works for a little bit...then the floating beachball comes more and more...until it will not boot up again. So then I restore from a previous time machine saved version....and again it works for a day or so ... until it happens again. Now it's happening faster and faster...so I think my hard drive is dying.

  • How much does it cost to replace the Ipad glass? Min and Max?

    How much does it cost to replace the Ipad glass? Min and Max?

    Apple does not repair iPads, but will replace the entire iPad for a flat fee. If you have AppleCare+ on the iPad, the cost will be relatively minimal; $49 in the US. Otherwise, see the Service Pricing section here:
    http://www.apple.com/support/ipad/service/faq/
    There are independent iPad repair services that may be able to replace the screen for less. Do a web search for "ipad repair".  You can also look for parts and instructions and do the repair yourself. Note, though, that if you elect to have the iPad serviced by an unauthorized shop or perform your own repair, you will get no further support from Apple.
    Regards.

    How much does it cost to repair/replace and iPod touch?

    Well, Thanks @IlIaass for letting me know that the screen doesn't get replacve but you get a new iPod. But then doesn't that indirectly mean that if your iPod is under warranty, you can get the refurbished one i.e. a new screen!! ?
