A new screw driver tip. Maybe a rubber band later over the head and driver tip place on it and a good bit or torque. Last case scenario is a dremol tool to cut a flat head groove, but that’s for the steady handed tech. This is repair talk btw, just my watching account. 😏

@@geraldherbert8115 thanks

Yes, but not on RUclips. Message me on Facebook. Facebook.com/repairtalk

No. Unfortunately wireless charging is yet to show its face in the mid to low range models from Samsung, Motorola, or LG.

That’s awesome to hear, thank for your feedback and kind words! Hope to have more coming soon!

It’s a plastic clear cover for the front facing camera flash. I forgot it on my first repair of this model.. which happens to be this video and I was emphasizing how irritating it is to disassemble, then reassemble just to do it over again for a small part. My fault for not showing it a little more.

@@RepairTalk irritating? HELL YEAH!!! mine was a royal pita! the plastic picks they sent all sheared off. i had to use a little straight bladed screw driver as well as a razor. NOT what i would enjoy doing for a living. thanks again, couldn't have done it w/o this vid

Unfortunately I do not take “mail ins”at this time. How ever, if you are local, phonesurgeonsga.com is my Facebook page for my Repair store.

That’s great to hear! Hope to have more videos for you soon!

also if i unplug and replug in the charger it will say it's charging for a solid 15 seconds, then say not charging

Yes, but it would require the pads view of the board (motherboard solder point map) and using a voltmeter to check all the ratings (volt and ohms) associated with the charging chips and port. I’m not saying it’s impossible to find, but it’s easier to get/run ratings on a known working board and compare those to your motherboard. In short, buying another charge port would be the simplest way to test if it’s the charge port or the mother board. A large shock can easily damage a board. I honestly think dell computers from the past 4 years are garbage, board fail way to easily and have issues that other brands never experience, and most LCDs and frames are ridiculously priced! Try a new charge port, if that doesn’t fix the issue, then a new board can be worth it as long if you can remove the cpu and swap it to the new board without any solder work.

Repair Talk thank you! I’ll look into everything you said

Yes. Aftermarket (made by a 3rd party) screens have less quality colors and backlights. OEM (Original Equipment Manufactured) LG screens can expensive is you are ordering from a retail site like Amazon or EBay, so most people chose the aftermarket. I test my displays before hand to eliminate a potential loss in quality, might have to send back a few screens, but time matters very little when it come to quality work.

Test it with the old screen. If it works again with broken screen, then the new screen is defected or damaged.

Off hand I cannot remember if the gold Pins need to be at the top or bottom, in terms of orientation.. but I would flip it and see if it starts working, if not then you might have damaged the woofer come or copper core and that can hinder it from working. LG makes cheap cheap crappy ear speakers and I generally have an extra one just in case when working on their devices.

@@RepairTalk Yep, tried it both ways and no joy. So I ordered another one. They are really cheap.

Glad to hear, C-Clamps can be used instead of the little crank clamps I use to hold the screen in place as the adhesive cures. This helps avoid that new screen lifting up on the edges. Hope everything went well for you!

Glass is glued to the LCD with Loca glue.. it can be cut off with a good heat gun, or freezing technique.. but it is very very difficult for a beginner to go a glass only on this display, and just about impossible to have a perfect looking display when finished if everything goes right. Loca glue requires a big UV light, not a black light, and about 4-8 hours under the light to allow that glue to dry. It’s just easier to replace the entire display with frame to avoid issues down the road. I’ve ran a store for 4+ years, and we did glass only repairs a lot in the beginning, profit margin is high... but so is your risk. Replace the whole screen, and sell the “broken but working” display on eBay to someone who specializes in glass only work. Win win imo!

Yes, whatever is easier for you, I like to make any possible damage to other components minimal.

@@RepairTalk thank you

Make sure the mid frame it seated correctly, if there is a space between the gold points on the motherboard and the connectors on the speaker it won’t have sound. Could just need to thread the screws in a little further.

It’s a different composition of glass and other materials vs all other smart phone manufacturers.. they claim it’s shatter resistant, and have gone as far as saying it was unbreakable... obviously nothing is “unbreakable” other wise I wouldn’t be repairing it. I’ve even replaced the force screens as well.

No, it’s a screen with frame replacement, basically swapping the board and battery to the new set up, and what to pay attention to in terms of small parts to ensure the device continues to works as it should.

Yes, I have tried this, but it will allow the adhesive to stick to the frame again and that can make it more difficult for some. When I use a xacto chisel to scrape off old adhesive, as I do for iPad repairs, I use alcohol to ensure my blade slides without much effort and also gets stubborn adhesive to come right off.

No. They will be different. Most likely the same in terms of how to repair, but different parts. As soon as one of these walk in my store I’ll have a guide up.

No, the tape adheres the screen to frame, glue is messy and can take forever to dry. Tape is recommend by all repair shops including mine.

After removing screen and cleaning the frame, the tape would be installed on the new screen on the edges.

Always happy to help!

That’s because I run repair business, four years established, as my front gig and advertise with online groups that have thousands of members, and I have only been on here for 6 months. The total view counts would be higher if I had more time to upload more videos, but I work 6 days a week in a shop by myself fixing 5-15 devices daily. I’m ten years older than I appear. 29atm.

@@RepairTalk Wow, that's very impressive!

Awesome. Great to hear I can help. I most likely will redo this video with a better angle in the future. Not sure though, have 100 or more hours of footage to comb through for next few projects.

No. Although placement of padding and circuit board on the back of said LCD tend to be tedious and on first timers can take few tries to reassemble without pinch marks on the screen. Great question though. Motherboard is for the most part, some one correct me if I am wrong, fused to the inner frame. I’m sure it can be removed, but at the risk of damage and time consumption, best to get new frame with board or a new frame for a board you already have.

Of course. Full video was about an hour and 20min total. I was talking to someone for the last part so that slowed me down. But I am all about perfect and making the customer happy vs rushing anything.

Haha. I’m family friendly and censor on certain words. If it can be said on TV on Nationwide networks.. then I don’t censor.

On it!

Appreciate it!

Thanks man!

You are trying a glass only, not recommended. You are saving your self 10-15$ by doing roughly 500% more work. www.amazon.com/Black-Adhesive-Model-61395-Double/dp/B07BMHYRPL/ref=mp_s_a_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1541553005&sr=8-6&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_QL65&keywords=tesa+doublesided+tape&dpPl=1&dpID=31WWAdOECVL&ref=plSrch For double sided tape. Tesa is the only brand I recommend. www.ebay.com/i/263770805968?chn=ps&ul_ref=https%253A%252F%252Frover.ebay.com%252Frover%252F1%252F711-117182-37290-0%252F2%253Fmpre%253Dhttps%25253A%25252F%25252Fwww.ebay.com%25252Fi%25252F263770805968%25253Fchn%25253Dps%2526itemid%253D263770805968%2526targetid%253D486089446018%2526device%253Dm%2526adtype%253Dpla%2526googleloc%253D9011164%2526poi%253D%2526campaignid%253D1499095156%2526adgroupid%253D64669591624%2526rlsatarget%253Dpla-486089446018%2526abcId%253D1139396%2526merchantid%253D6296724%2526gclid%253DEAIaIQobChMItY_My4zB3gIVC5yzCh0hwwneEAQYASABEgLydPD_BwE%2526srcrot%253D711-117182-37290-0%2526rvr_id%253D1731398698547%2526rvr_ts%253Debb8e8491660ab4dccd59b31fffde0e8 For screen... just example. I have wholesale membership.. so I get OEM for cheap. Never do a glass only as a first time repair. I’ve repaired thousands of devices over the past few years, and I hate glass only repairs. It requires a grey area of heat, too little it breaks the lcd by pressure and to much you burn it. Then you have to glue the new one on with UV glue and let it sit under a UV lamp for hours. Tip made shorter... spend the extra 10-15$ and get the full assembly and use a strong professional strength phone grade double sided adhesive.

Keep it mind I use 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 10mm tesa tape. It’s hard to find. But more sizes make for less cutting and cover removing.

Yes. I believe that is Boost or Sprints version of the X-Charge. Same phone. Nice when a manufacturer make the phone the same across carriers... rare from LG on non-Flagship devices.

@@RepairTalk Ok, I have my replacement screen...I am doing this tonight after I review this video again and then watch it while I do the work. I'll report back. :D I'm sure it'll be fine.

Worked like a charm. One bonus though, my screen/frame came with the LED diffuser so I didn't have to transfer it. My only hiccup was the power button, that is one flimsy piece of copper. I got it all back together and you made it so easy! Thank you!

Thank You Hannah! I’m flattered you enjoy my work. Feel free to share these videos on your social media pages. Good marketing is always welcome!

Change the part of the charger that plugs into the wall. I have this issue with one of my laptops when I use my wife’s extender for her Asus on my MSI. If that doesn’t work it could be a bad battery. Most of the time, with those symptoms, it’s not the charging port. Your computer is recognizing its plugged in, but is not receiving the correct wattage, amperage, or voltage. Try that and let me know.

@@RepairTalk this happened before, the charger and battery were fine. i think when i plugged it in, i put it in an awkward way and damaged the prongs inside the charger input. i looked inside and it was crooked. we had warranty last time and got it fixed but we ran out

Member only Wholesale dealer. I can however send you some via mail if you reach out to me on Facebook. Phonesurgeonsga.com will take you my store page and we can talk more on it!

I have, ink displays and full color nooks. I do t have a lot of customers bringing them in, so I don’t have any videos of that. I’m sure eventually I will, but not yet.
