Story
Recently my iPhone battery has been acting up, it cut off while on a night out and I didn't think much of it until a couple of days later when I charged my phone all night and it lasted 2 hours while on standby/locked.

So, after that I opened my iPhone up for some reason and then noticed a hole in my battery and a lose screw on the other side of my battery.. eek!

More Story... yawn
Anyway, long story short. While looking for a replacement battery, I noticed that there's four different part id's available (616-0512, 616-0513, 616-0520 and 616-0521)

Most sites recommend 513 or 520, others say that you need the same part id as the one currently in your iPhone and others say it doesn't matter long as it's an iPhone 4 battery.

Actual Question (tldr)
Does it matter which battery replacement I buy for as long as it's one of the following 616-0512, 616-0513, 616-0520 or 616-0521 for iPhone 4?
