I just used the battery replacement kit I bought from this website and I’m not sure if I did something wrong. I made sure the battery was connected really well and screwed it tightly. I followed the directions to drain my new battery to below 10% and then charge it to 100% uninterrupted but it took almost 4 hours to charge up to 100% is there a reason why it took that long or did I do something wrong ?

There are a number of possible reasons why the battery took so long to charge:

  • Bad charging cable (damaged / worn out)
  • Damaged charging port
  • Using the 1.0A wall charger instead of the 2-2.4A wall charger (You can charge at 1.6A speed instead of 1A which is noticeably faster) Note that using a higher amperage charger will not damage your phone.
