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…


I’d be more concerned about the cost of the equipment to heat up and take the thing apart. Is that a concern?
I don’t think they were using glue yet. You just use a plastic pry tool to get the case open.
