I know, by that point it feels like a long shot, and I'd prefer a way to fix the battery id...
Install the jailbreak and install USBnetworking add-in.
No need to open the device.
There is a script for extracting the kernels if the firmware version your wife is running does not expose them in the file system.

Start in the 'Master Index' sticky to find de-bricking and firmware back-up (of which getkernels.sh is part of that toolset).
