6s replacement Battery shows "Battery Service" on ios 11.3 Beta

It's possible that your battery is in poor health but because this is a beta version, it's also possible that there is an error in the diagnostic.

I can't speak for iOS 11.3 Beta but one thing you can do is to use a battery utility, such as coconutBattery (for Mac) or 3uTools (for Windows). It will tell you what the health of the battery is. Anything less than 70% of design capacity will require replacement.

I have had the same experience after installing iOS 11.3 on two iPhone 6 in my household.

Both have iFixit replacement batteries which I installed a month or two ago. 3uTools shows the battery of my phone as 98%, I did not check the other.

I am assuming that the beta version of Battery Health shows non-Apple sourced batteries as "Service". Will have to see if this changes in a future version....

Mine - from authorized Apple Service also show “Service”.

And it only shows “maximum capacity”, but no % (I.e 100%).

I’ll call them tommow just to make sure if it’s just beta being beta, or my battery is not genuine after all...

Just replaced an iPhone 6 battery with a new iFixit and my customer is having same issue, of course my full assumption is that Apple has plans for detecting non-Apple hardware in their devices (just like the home buttons) so you MUST purchase their cost controlled (i.e. oligarchy - but not necessarily superior) hardware (of course I will note that my iPhone 6 with an iFixit battery from several months ago is perfectly fine).

Updated now to iOS 11.4 - still the same situation.

I recently replaced my daughters iPhone 6 Plus battery that I bought on eBay, for an ifixit one. The eBay Chinese battery showed battery health. The ifixit does not. Guess we will know for sure once the battery health feature comes out of beta. A little disappointed ifixit doesn’t disclose this issue.

I have the same problem. I replaced the battery of my iPhone 6 at Bestbuy (Authorized Apple service provider). The Battery Health Beta won’t work. I took it back to Bestbuy but they couldn’t fix the problem.

The technician upgraded the IOS to 11.4 hopping that this will solve the problem , but no luck. He gave up and told me to give it a couple more days, it might fix by itself. Also he gave me the option to give me another phone (refurbished). I’m planning to go back to do just this, get a new phone.

I have exactly the same issue with a $29 replacement I got at the Apple Store yesterday...will go back and complain and see what they say.

Even with genuine Apple batteries I’ve seen this same situation on those as well .

Replaced my battery today with Ifixit. My battery Health says service, and peak performance and maximum capacity is blank. Not that it’s necessary, since I rarely look at it. However, it’s pretty cool I fixed my phone by myself , and save some extra bucks. I hope it changes with the new iOS 12 update. Pretty content that my new battery works with no issues though.

hello everyone, i am from vietnam. Today I checked the battery with ios 12. Everything is ok! Presents all information as genuine although it is a non-Apple replacement battery. And I continue to use it to replace customers in Vietnam with very cheap price you do not think! About this battery can see more at my web

The thing I want to say is that the battery components will be designed by the manufacturer for the corresponding iOS!

hi

i have got the battery replaced. it was showing 100% but within a week it is like 75%.

i am not sure if this is meant to be going well down.

When i replaced the battery, it was showing 80% peak performance.

Current IOS version is 12.0

What could be the issue? is there a way to resolve it ?

Can anyone help?

just replaced my iphone 6s plus battery and the battery health says: service

i’ ve tried to restore to factory and full charge the phone, but it doesn’ t seem to work

any ideas how to fix it?

Hi there,

I replace my battery in my iPhone 7 plus and since then it also shows service.

I fould some forum tread where someone mention that the phone was stared accidentally before all cables were connected.

The fix for this seems to be: to remove the battery connector once again and put it back.

I tried that, but with no success.

Does anyone have any idea how to fix this service issue ??

The problem is the batteries . I buy from a different company and had the same issues , contacted them via live chat and were told the new batteries would be updated to include the health. received a new batch with a later date and all good. Therefore the issue lies within the battery and some sort of software programming they must have to do to the battery itself.

Not all third-party batteries are able to show Battery Health. Ask the seller/manufacturer if the batteries are able to. If you have a battery that should be able to show Battery Health percentage but still shows “Service”, try:

1. Update to newest iOS
2. Reset iPhone

This worked for me when I had this issue

Upgrade my iphone 7 with iOS 13 and my battery health shows “Service” and im charging it for 3hrs already but no improvement at all ad it keeps on rebooting. HELP!

I too have an issue with iFixit batteries.

I tested another screen on my SE and put it all back together. Immediately after turning it back on the battery (iFixit - about a year old) was only showing 27% - it was about 70% before. I wasn’t suspecting anything until my phone kept crashing every 3 minutes! You can set an alarm after it, it’s on the second! Battery health under iOS 12 kept showing service and no info regarding actual health. No charging, nothing. It’s so frustrating. Tried DFU reset and everything…. all to no avail. A new battery didn’t fix it for me neither. Same issues persist which makes me think the battery wasn’t the issue…. I’m all out of ideas. Running an iPhone SE A1723 . Can anybody help?

A damage in the U2 charging chip of the motherboard is what’s causing the constant rebooting. My Iphone 6 plus kept rebooting every 2 minutes and 35 seconds on the dot. Replacing the U2 chip by soldering a new one will fix the problem.
