iPhone SE 1st gen crashes at random intervals

Hey everyone!

I recently picked up a 1st gen iPhone SE for $10 and I’ve been having some issues.

It worked fine for a bit and after resetting it the phone started crashing at random intervals. Sometimes it’s every 5 minutes, sometimes after 10 and others every minute.

I replaced the battery as it was fairly old and I’m still having this issue. I’m seeing that the phone doesn’t load any battery health stats and the about page says the battery is in need of service.

I checked around the battery connector and everything seems to be intact, nothing knocked off the board. I blasted the connector with hot air, cleaned the whole board with IPA and still nothing. What could be causing this?

Bought a 1st gen for €10

The rest of the phone is in a bit of a rough shape but I couldn’t skip out on it. It keeps rebooting every now and then and battery health wasn’t loading. Coconut battery reports a whopping 100mAh capacity.

I’ll just replace the battery in it as I want to use it as a secondary phone for answering calls and texts and maybe some light mail and telegram.

What’s the music used for the postcards this year?

I’ve been watching the semis with friends and they kept commenting on the postcard music being nice and now I’m wondering, do we know what the music used is?
