Chosen Solution
Hello, the battery of my iPhone 5s startet to get weak, so I decided to replace it. I ordered a new one but did not verify the correct APN number of the old battery. Unfortunately the new one is not working with the iPhone. It is not charging nor turning on. My bad, I also gave the old battery already to an recycling service. Is there a way, I can find out the corresponding APN to my iPhone without doing trial and error byuing 5 or more different batteries?
So, I gave the iPhone to a repair shop, which is doing smd soldering. He did not find anything. The phone is working correctly. What was actually broken? Again, the new battery. Allthough it was new, allthough it worked before, allthough it was fully charged. Is it really that hard to find a good seller for good batteries? I mean, I bought cheap ones, I bought expensive ones, I bought at this shop, I bought at that shop… It seems, that it is hard to find a good spareparts-shop for iPhone’s in Germany. Problem is solved now.
philipp, for the 5S the APN numbers should be APN 616-0720 616-0721 616-0728. I have not come across a battery issue with the 5S but anything is possible. You may need to check other parts on your phone if a proper battery replacement will not work.
Doesn’t matter what apn You probobly just got a dud battery
Hi, the APN of the new(not working) battery is 616-0722. Do you think something went wrong during the replacement, when you’re saying that I have to check other parts? The phone was working normally despite the fact of a weak battery. Which parts should I check?
Remove the battery, press power button for some seconds and then put battery again and try to power on the phone. In other case remove the lcd and find other (new) lcd and do the same thing again. In other case replace the battery and the lcd too. I had the same problem and i fixed the phone after doing all this and after some hours or searching
