So I’m broke and I buy the cheapest stuff. I bought an iPod Touch 6th Gen off eBay with a cracked screen and a bad battery for about $15. However, what I didn’t know was that apparently the battery was soldered to the Logic Board, which I should’ve looked up I guess… what can I do to tinker a bit with this device, make it a fun tech project, and still make it usable? It says working condition other than the bad battery…
Thank you!!! Someone said “It’s literally soldered onto the board” so it makes me happy to hear that’s not true
Not sure what they’re on about, it’s soldered.

With that being said, it’s not a terribly difficult part to desolder/resolder. Use flux, take care not to short the positive side to anything else while you’re working.
