Apple will not replace the battery in an iPhone with a cracked screen, so if you really want to do this, you will have to use a third party shop that will install a non-genuine Apple battery.


That means that battery settings like Maximum Capacity will no longer be displayed, so you won't really know anything about the status of the replacement battery.


In addition, if you do this, Apple will not even look at the phone if you want to replace the screen later on because of non-genuine parts and tampering by unauthorized persons.
