I replaced the battery with one purchased here and having issues with it not showing how much of a charge i have and it re starting on its own. It would indicate a certain percentage of battery life for example 100 %.Then when I use it or re-boot it it will show a different percentage like 80%. So it goes from 100% to 80% in minutes. I found on your forum that i should drain the battery 100% and then charge to 100% uninterrupted and see if that works. I will try that.But if I am still having the same issue what would be my next step. How easy would it be to get a replacement battery from IFixit if the battery that was sent to me is defective.
tbakersun , If battery is truly defective and you had just purchased it recently, I can not really speak for the iFixit store, as you posted this at ifixit volunteer site and we have nothing to do with sales, but yo do have warranty so there should not be a problem in exchanging it. I will post the contact link so you can talk to sales/returns if need be and link to return policy. Good luck. I hope this helped you out, if so let me know by pressing the helpful button. http://help.ifixit.com/collection/130-co… http://help.ifixit.com/article/49-return…
Hi There, Changing battery is the best option. If you get same error then it might be the problem in the installation as more pressure might have been applied to battery connector.
