After replacing the battery with one from iFixit, it worked beautifully for two months. Three weeks ago, it began to power cycle with every bump the phone endured and so I opened it up and it appears that the battery connector does not seat and stay in the phone. I believe this to be because the actual male connector is still in the socket and no longer attached to the ribbon cable. I am attaching photos to confirm this before attempting to extract this part to salvage the phone. Please advise on repair options. I will attach photos of the current condition (in the best resolution my old tablet can handle)
