Hi guys I have an Apple iPod 5 touch that wasn't turning on even when plugged in. The battery and charging dock are inconveniently soldered to the logic board so doesn't make testing/replacing easy.
I unsoldered the 3 terminal battery connector and connected an external supply from bench dc supply set at 3.7v
Phone booted fine. I tried connecting the charger in but the charge symbol never displayed. Does it mean the port is bad or would using an external supply cause it not to work? iTunes didn't detect it either
