Does a battery replacement reset the phone?

No, a battery replacement does not reset the phone. Photos, contacts and apps live in the phone’s permanent storage, not in the battery; data is usually preserved during a battery replacement, but back up first. The date and time may need setting again afterwards.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

01

Does a battery replacement reset the phone?

Data lives in permanent storage and is usually preserved; still, back up before the repair starts.

02

Should I back up before a battery replacement?

Yes; data is usually preserved during a repair, but you need to back up your data before the repair starts (backups are the customer’s responsibility).

03

Why did the date and time change after the replacement?

On some models the clock is set again on the first start because power was cut; with automatic time on, it corrects itself.

04

Which repairs delete data?

Data is usually preserved during battery, screen and port replacements; still, back up first. With a main board replacement, data cannot move to the new board.

We had a screen protector fitted, and they gave us gifts I think were worth more than the screen protector. Most of all, thank you for the friendly welcome.

Phone works but the screen is black: what to do

If your phone rings or vibrates but the screen is black, the phone is on; the problem is the screen or its connection. Force restart and charge it first. Shine a torch close to the screen in the dark: a faint picture means a backlight fault. If it started after a drop or liquid, the screen is usually replaced.
