Ryan repairs my ancient 3G iPhone

I have an old 3G iPhone which stopped charging and wouldn't turn on anymore. I plugged it into the wall but no dice and it was out of warranty so I upgraded to a new phone and put it in a drawer about two years ago. I was cleaning out my desk and Ryan noticed and and asked if he could try to fix it.
He was following videos on youtube to figure out how to get them apart.

Pieces

I think that is the battery and sim card. 
Reassembling the entire phone.
Success! It boots up and charges again!
