Thank you for this guide @camilleholley , it was extrememly helpful. Thankfully, the problem charging my phone (Moto G Stylus 5G, 2023) seems to be resolved with a fresh battery replacement.
>>>For anyone with this phone having problems charging, here's what I was experiencing: (a) battery would charge only with one cable (it was a USB-A to USB-C) (b) battery would drain extremely quickly once charged (c) battery would only charge to about 20% and then lasted for less than 1 hour with minimal to no usage.<<<
Also, for anyone reading this who's about to replace the battery - I recommend getting the battery & a magnetic dry-erase board project mat (~$20 USD) from ifixit. The battery I got came with a repair tool kit, and it had everything I needed to use to remove the back. The magnetic project mat was perfect for keeping the tiny screws in one place, and it even came with a really nice dry erase marker to take notes with (like how many screws go to a certain area or what the name of the removed part is/where it goes).
- You can do this! This was my first time taking this phone apart, and I'm not a professional phone repair person. While it took me a few hours to do (mostly because I was messing around with figuring out adhesives) I'm glad that I decided to save the additional money it would have cost to have someone replace it for me.
