My old ipod, it's a 30 gb ipod video...
It's looong out of warranty, I bought it in 2006 or 2005, whenever ipod videos first came out, and the battery life was down to 2 hours, so I decided to change the battery myself and bought a new battery.
Well, the ipod still works although I cracked the screen and it looks kinda ugly, but the new battery will not hold power at all.
I bought the battery off of ebay from a seller with 99% positive feedback from two million people...so I just dont' see how the battery could be fake or a scam...
I probably did something wrong, I will break it apart again tomorrow and try it with the old battery and see if there is a difference...It's soo frustrating though because the thing breaks apart so easily once I open it.
I have my new ipod touch so it's not like I have no music, but I was planning on giving this one to someone.
Has anyone changed an ipod's battery? How did it go?
