Introdução
Use this guide to revive your iPhone 8 Plus with a new battery. If your battery is swollen, take appropriate precautions.
This guide instructs you to fully detach the display assembly; this is intended to prevent accidental damage to the display cables. If you feel comfortable removing the battery without putting undue strain on the display cables, you can skip the steps for detaching the display. Additionally, while it’s possible to remove the adhesive strips securing the battery as soon as you open the phone, this guide recommends first removing the Taptic Engine. Doing so reduces the risk of breaking the lower adhesive strips accidentally, either by snagging them on the Taptic Engine, or by pulling the strips at too sharp of an angle.
For optimal performance, after completing this guide, calibrate your newly installed battery: Charge it to 100% and keep charging it for at least two more hours. Then use your iPhone until it shuts off due to low battery. Finally, charge it uninterrupted to 100%.

Do I have to remove the display to replace the battery? Or can I leave the display in
You can leave the display connected and skip steps 15-20, as long as you’re careful to support the display so as not to damage the display cables while you work.
Don’t do it,you can EASILY RIP LCD RIBBON CABLE
Are there any statistics or even educated guesses about how many people are able to successfully complete this repair? Although it is rated as “moderate” in terms of difficulty, I would rate it as more than just moderate. I tried to replace the battery on a much older iPhone and wound up with a brick. Is an 8 plus easier than an iPhone 3 or 4? Where might one find such statistics?
It takes a little time to learn how to do certain things. As always a video tutorial is better than the picture only version. But if you follow one of their teardowns maybe you can get an idea of how to do some of the more intricate things like the battery adhesive removal. I do this as a hobby and it took a while to perfect, but my first 2 repairs went well and I didn't brick my phone or my iPad so guess I was doing some of the basics right.
Don't be discouraged. Watch some YT vids. Then work up the courage to try again. Good Luck!
