- JBL FLIP Teardown in order to replace the battery. Seems like a pretty easy job.
Battery 3.7V 3000mAh (example: CS-JMF310SL)
Check your serial number, if you have a TL in there, then this video is for you.
But if you have a GG version, then the repair can be slightly more difficult,

Problems getting the old battery out? Look here ua-cam.com/video/S3yBe1nj154/v-deo.html
Ah, yes, no-one mentions the sticky battery, seemingly impossible to remove. I finally fixed it by threading a wide ribbon down the side of the battery then back up again, tying to a stick and pulling. Works great.
I cant twist my end cap off, no matter how hard I twist it. I have the right model it just seems like its stuck. Help me please?
Same. It's like it's glued shut. Did you ever find a solution?
I figured it out! Use a small flathead screwdriver, and gently pry it in between the thicker edge of the end cap. If you find the right spot, it pops right off!
@@WouterH. thank you for helping me
Is it still waterproof?
Yes is it but there is a chance that water can get in
This helped me a lot, I was quite unsecure about prying it open with too much force then breaking it... also my battery was swollen so it was VERY HARD to take it out - couldnt pull it straight away just by pulling the cables, had to use a medium screwdriver to push it from the other side. Thank you so much.
Very good video. It must be said that most times the old battery will not simply pull out because it will be swollen. I had to take the passive radiator off the opposite end & use a long flat head screwdriver to push it out, alternating from side to side. It took quite a lot of force but it finally came out the plug end enough to grab it with some pliers.
my baterry doesnt come out it looks like its blued
Use a hair dryer to heat it up a little
I'm having difficulty in removing/unscrewing the end cap to gain access to the battery compartment and need assistance
.
Maybe you have a different build. Is yours a TL version?
probably late but I've had the same issue; regardless that mine is a jbl flip 4 also, the end cap wouldn't unscrew - instead I had to remove it in the same way I removed the silicone spine / radiator, it seems like it has some small clips.
I tried unscrewing and I couldn't understand whyy am I not able to
I like how you show how to open it without the proper tools thanks. You made it look flawless to open and remove the battery.
Hello, battery is VERY DIFFICULT to get out. I drilled it out with long bit. Needle nose players. Make sure you have patience or speaker might get thrown up against a wall!
I had to use needle nose pliers to pull the battery out.
Very good, I am so glad You Help me to fixe my JBL Flip 4. Thank You again.
you used a guitar pick? lmao atleast i know i can do it now!
good night, I also have a flip 4, my problem is that it discharges very fast, and when it has very little the horn begins to snore. Changing the battery solves that problem? And if so, what battery model do I need?
Greetings, I'm from Mexico
Same problem here but I think it is fault of the charging port. I have bought battery and will replace soon . Ill write back
@@alexikharatishvili2453 have you changed the battery yet?
@@JC-lc5fo it is glued and i could not take it. Im on beach having fun far from my house where i left jbl. Ill be home in 4 days and tell what's going to be
@@JC-lc5fo i just changed and it works
@@alexikharatishvili2453 plz provide battery replacement link
The Flip 4 is the best speaker in the JBL Flip line-up till date, without any doubt. I got mine in India for $91 in November 2019 but the price went up to $110 after that and has pretty much remained there. You may ask why and the reason is, the Flip 5 is not better. The Flip 4 has brighter sound and a very tight bass and mids. It also has 2 active drivers and a 3.5 aux output, the latter essential for watching video without lag / latency. The Flip 4 also has a bass boosting feature. Press the Bluetooth and the Volume down button for about 10 seconds and you enter the Low Frequency Mode. Now your Flip 4 is ready to kill. I also love my blue as my friend loves his red and others their different hues. This speaker is a perfect blend of sound, portability, style and ruggedness. It has an IPX7 rating and it lives up to it. The price at $100 is very fair all considered. And if you can by any chance place it in a corner, it blows the lid off far larger speakers! This is a speaker you will fall in love with and never tire of!! 10/10, 5*
Low frequency mode isnt for consumer use. I also use it though.
@@essentialtech388 If not consumer use, then who is it for? I keep it permanently on. Without that, it is sorely lacking in bass.
@@apusista well lfm is made for jbl service. not for people to use it. eventually it can damage your speaker, but im also using it lol
Excellent video!! Thank you so much for posting this!! I was ready to scrap my speaker!
Can't remove that side cover. Tried twisting it to open like a bottle, but it won't move.
Managed to remove it that day by sticking a knife in the gap and forcing it upwards. No amount of twisting will do the job.
@@Fux704 did the same thing.
Hello friend, I have a flip 4 GG, the drivers broke, I have a spare but for the TL version, they look like they fit, but would it not affect anything? I await your response thanks.
It'll work just fine. Don't worry!
Thanks for your response friend, I already put them correctly with their respective polarity, I soldered them, screwed them and assembled the device, but I notice some good details, the vocal and treble tones are slightly clearer, cute and pleasant, it gives me the feeling Since the bass is cleaner, now I get a softer and more pleasant sound.
Is Flip4’s battery the same as Flip3’s battery?
K Work Studio good question, but I don’t have a flip3
Looks like that it is. Do you know if it is the same?
After doing this what will happen to waterproofing
Mr NoBody nothing, what do you think would happen?
@@mygiguser No longer waterproof because of holes?
@@mygiguser Quite logical.
Where can i find a battery?
www.cameronsino.com/products/audio-and-video/speaker-battery.html?brand=JBL
lol Oh my, why I didnt think this way. YOU ARE RIGHT... hair dryer
Nice Video BRO 👍🏻
Is it still waterproof after opening it? Thx
yes, it is.
Really struggling to get the battery out no success yet
heating it up with a hairdryer on hot?
It is water proof??
yes it is. IPX7
So where can i buy that kind of battery
Ton Ton Ebay or Amazon?

Does removeing the passive radiator ruin the waterproofing?
No, the passive radiator is like a silicon seal.
What is the yellow plastic tool for opening with which you open the flip 4? Thanks!!
Jorge Alberca Auto trim and panel removal tools, search on Amazon, Ebay, Harbor Freight
@@mygiguser Thanks
I have a issue with my flip 4 the micro USB port is broken show me how to replace a new one
Awsome thanx!
Ok, did the replacement but when I plug in to charge the lights are not flashing - I did the reset but I'm sure the battery lights stayed steady and flashed as it filled up? - let's see if it charges anyways but I feel like it's not working as it did.
Did you ever fix this?
So I’m not the only one who used guitar stuff to do this
Fui trocar a minha estufou tanto que furou e não saiu
Nice job man, super clear advise
I cant pull off the battery ?
Cownelo Alvaroids ua-cam.com/video/S3yBe1nj154/v-deo.html
Cownelo Alvaroids neither can I it’s literally glued inside... gotta stick with my garbage battery I guess smh
Thanks for your video man, aweosome, loved the real thing happening.
My JBL Flip 4 not only had 5 screws around the cap but also they were plastic soft and I could only unscrew 3 of them and got blocked with 2. Ok I got pissed because I am sure it was meant to be shitty screws so people won't have an easy time replacing the battery in it. But what shocked was that the battery was glued inside after I destroyed the cap to get in it just to see if it will be possible to replace it. JBL made it on purpose like that I am sure. What we see here in these teardowns does not reflect reality. I literally paid for a battery and I couldn't replace it...
I hear a few people are having problems with the battery being glued in with double sided tape. The Flip4 seems not the easiest to replace the battery, but it is doable. You can use a hair dryer to heat up the battery area, that is going to make it easier to get the battery out. As for the screws, if the screw driver doesn't fit a 100% then you are going to have problems since the screws are really soft. Not sure why you destroyed the cap?
Same! Ridiculous design. In battle with one final screw still. Using foil, rubber bands and am now actually trying to talk it out of its stubborn mood. Trying again tomorrow. Any tips on screw removal would be appreciated.
This is supposed to be a waterproof speaker, but is it still, after the case has been opened? Does it not have. To be resealed?
yes it is. The silicon rubber seals can be reused.
2 questions. What song was playing to test sound? And where can I get replacement batteries?
You can get the replacement battery on Amazon
Battery name.? Please..
Actually. My one is not that easy to replace ...My one battery just stick on .Cant take out .....
鄭忠勛 heat it up with a hair dryer. Make sure the battery is really discharged, and pull it out with pliers.
I just oiled up a butter knife and slide it in the sides of the battery slot multiple times and then the battery became loose and was able to be pulled out.
Ты там блать не задохнись
Is there a bigger battery for flip 4 ?
diehard fan sobutthurt no, there’s no space in there
You should put a link on where to buy the battery
RagingTiger Amazon, Ebay
Thanks, I just bought it for $17.95 in there
What's the battery name
This is all wrong. Mine had more screws that were hidden and i ended up cracking it.
Da Pharaoh Ent. Shoulda paid attention to wtf you was doing
haha
Bruh there are 3 different modell versions. Gg TL and AN. Gg has more screws Than tl or AN, did U check your SN correctly?
This video is fake, the old battery does not come out of the speaker anywhere as easily as shown. Consider this before buying a replacement battery.
this is not fake. if you wait too long, then it gets harder to remove.
