Hey i just did a housing replacment last night on an iphone 5s, and durring the process i had issue getting the battery out and ended up puncturing it, Iwanted to know if i pluged it back into the main logic board if it could cause it to short the board or am i okay? Also i ened up scrathing the black side of the Volume/power/led flex cable if the main gold side is fine will i still run into issues?
Chase, if you punctured the battery, you must replace it. The lithium in those batteries reacts violently with humidity and can either explode or catch fire. Do not reuse it but discard it properly. As for your scratching the flex cable, this will depend on what it looks like and if it destroyed the connection. To eliminate any issues, replace that as well.
