This tutorial is completely worthless if one doesn’t have a battery to replace the one removed. Now two people have asked where to get a replacement yet you have not responded. Undoubtedly countless others have come by looking for a suitable replacement and saw that there was no response and no solution. Congratulations on helping no one. It would seem you’re nothing more than a blowhard, a big show off, “Oh look at me I am fixing my bad battery. Aren’t you impressed?” I’m not.
