iPhone 5 battery

CantGetNoSleep

I've been given a gift of an iPhone 5 but the battery only lasts about 4 hours, any idea of the best place online to buy a new one? I will replace it myself

Any Ebay seller. You can’t get genuine new Apple batteries; they are all selling the same thing: either used genuine batteries or Chinese knockoffs. I think I ordered from an Irish seller last time: tech-zone. The first one they sent had worse battery life than my old battery, but the second one was fine. It’s a lucky dip.

OK thanks - I am completely new to iOS.

Am I right in saying newer versions cannot be unlocked without the NAC from the network?

Iphones don't use codes, they are done through iTunes servers but yes it has to be done through the network or else there is sellers on eBay.
