Q: Iphone 5 battery issue(s)

Recently out of nowhere, my phone started having weird boot loops. After hard resetting several times i got it back to life, but for some reason after a few hours the phones battery level never changed, and plugging it in made it drop 5%..

Since ive worked on my phone a few times, i took it apart and inspected the battery. Everything looked fine and i disconnected and reconnected it. I made sure nothing else was touched or damaged.

That (for some reason) made it work again, but after a few hours i had to reboot my phone, and that started the boot loop again.

I just bought a replacement battery and it will be here in a few days, right now my phones stuck a 2% and its been charging for a few hours. While it was i read that this problem could also be the FL 11 on the logic board or the Dock connector.

If this problem continues can someone tell me what it truly is?


iPhone 5, iOS 8.4
