using that battery my h10 20 gig is good as new. im listening to NPR on it right now! you will need a torx key set like this one

a little patience and a little dexterity.

good luck. if you need a more detailed write up im willing to write one from memory but i dont think i'll dissassembling my h10 again to take pictures unless there is a great call for it.

its not a complete success yet because either the battery didn't come fully charged or theres something wrong with the iriver itself cause it lost charge in 2 hours

Was it easy taking the back off of the H10 20gb? I have the replacement battery which i ordered from ipod99 it came with all the little tools but i'm having trouble just getting the back open.

The H10 battery displayed on that page is only 850 mAh... I wouldn't be surprised if it lost it's charge faster than the stock battery, but, 2 hours does seem rather poor even for that... On a different note, it looks like those are all Cameron Sino batteries, which from experience and from what I've read here seem to be decent.
