OMG this is awesome, so every single part that can be damaged by dropping, except the screen, is user replaceable. I thought those stainless steel side frames are actually part of the screen assembly. OMG I really love LG rightnow, and I cannot be happier for using V10!!!
Nice video very informative! Can you tell us though if you've found some kind of a seal when opening the phone? How can we tell if it was previously opened or not? Thanks!
Thank you, Max! This video allowed me, without any difficulty, swap the guts of one V10 with a crack in the screen with another that had the motherboard die. Thanks!
nice. definately cool to see how easy this thing comes apart. upgrading from samsung S4 to this soon, tired of all the new phones not having removable batteries/SD cards. one thing i really liked about the note 5 however was the stylus and apps/integration for it. any way to get an aftermarket sylus that is as awesome/close to as awesome as the samsung note 5's?
Awesome video Max. Just what I've been looking for. I broke the screen on my LG V10 within a month of buying it. This video has gaven me the confidence to go ahead and buy the replacement screen and do it myself.On a different subject that I have about cell phone peripherals in general, are the charge cords. They don't last... When (and if) a phone charging cord manufacturer develops a USB phone charging cord that doesn't become unusable within 3 weeks of use, that is the charging cord manufacturer that will have my undying loyalty... forever. I've had to buy 4 or 5 new charging cords since I've bought the LG V10. The phone is ok and the electrical plug adapter is ok, but the USB cord always quits working within a month or so and I've only had this LG V10 for 5 or 6 months. I'm always extremely careful when plugging it in to never jam it, or put it in sideways. I also ensure I remove the cord very gingerly when disconnecting, but the cords never last for more than 3 or 4 weeks before becoming unable to charge the phone.If there are those of you out there that have the same problem and have rectified the issue buy purchasing a certain cord, PLEASE let me know. It's very frustrating to plug your phone in and it not begin charging...
Hye bro i am in the trouble when i am update my phone after that phone update successfully when software install and phone will be restart and after that process my phone not power on and also if i am connect charger so that also not showing sign on phone charging so what should i do.... have any idea.
Max...great video as always...my v10 died while charging over night...it had screen burn and was a display model...Will changing the digitizer assembly fix the problem? Thanks, Jon
nice and simple to disassemble! I'm a bit worry about how the power button(+FP sensor) and volume button is connected to the board though.Are other LGs such as G3,G4 like that?
yknow that it's better convinent and cheaper to replace the entire thing with the board right? miniature parts are problematic and requires extra engineering
I shattered the glass on my screen but the screen and touch abilities still work flawlessly, is it possible to just replace the glass, or do I need to buy a complete screen assembly?
Same boat! I found one video that mentioned just replacing the glass, but it involves having to heat the adhesive to be able to pull the glass off, then needing to use product to put it back together. Seems very complicated.
- if the phone doesn't work it means that the problem is with the motherboard? No matter what I try it doesn't turn on. I would appreciate an answer. Thanks. Love all your videos.
hi max, i have a problem: my lg v10 camera dosen t work, and a camera module replacement is not yet available on ebay or amazon, the lg g4 camera module is the exactly same of the v10?
Thanks for the vid, used this to swap screens but I still have a black screen. Any suggestions on what to try next? I know the phone powers on, i hear the startup sound, receive fb, reminders, and other notifications sounds but have a black screen. There is a tiny bit of light coming from behind the second screen. Any thoughts on what you think it could be?
Fluid Frame it's the motherboard..but the problem is they're nearly impossible to find unless you get it on eBay which I personally am not trusting, good luck lol
The upper left hand corner of the digitzer, that one thing with the white L what does that do? I got a new screen assembly in the mail and there was a part loose in the bag it looks like some sort of connector. and it goes where that L is.
hey i dropped my lg v10 in the water after dis its not reacting and it is looking for android systems it said. but what broke do you think what do i need to replace ??
Max wish if you make video on how to root & unroot LG V10 H962 dual sim(international version) & how to upgrade the stockrom from 5.1 lollipop to marshmallow 6.0 so I can get High on android almost every day. Keep it up man
do you know how to recover the internal memory from the phone. mine completely died and connecting it to the computer does nothing for me. and I have a bunch of pictures I would like to retrive.
+Mark S. damn thats cool though, could completely change up your front color as well. Not just the back plate. So then third party can make those front plastic pieces too. like the old nokia days.
+Addicted to Ride Yes, that entire frame is metal, and the Snapdragon 808 is using it for a heatsink. Anyone who owns this device can attest that it doesn't have a thermal throttle problem like many of today's flagships do.
my screen is flickering after i put it back together. i didnt take it all the way apart i just too off the 1st set of screws and out it back. any idea why its flickering?
Any noticeable lag so far? I have the Galaxy S6 Edge, and I really want to jump onto LG... My Edge lags so much. :( I've never used LG so I want a a good honest comment.. does it lag or not? Last resort I will jump back to iPhone. ugh.
Hey folks! is there anyone knowledgeable enough to point out where/what the antenna is here? I'm wanting to see if I can improve my gps/internet connection by modding the antenna itself or rigging something extra to it.
My favorite phone ever!!! It's big, heavy and bulky! And no other phone sounds that good on headphones with the 32 bit DAC. A shame that this model also had the proc overheating problem like the G4
Great video, thanks. Mine was just a little different but close enough to get me through it. Baked the boot looping motherboard and was able to get everything off of it. Boom shakalaka!
excellent vdo. I was afraid to bread MY g5 as the battery overcharged and bubbled to kill the back switch from working. battery would not come out. So wala ----its fixed along with my back button. As far as parts; forget it if not in USA. there is no support in ME, Asia for any parts or servioce. They won't even sell you one in phillipines Malay, Thailand. i bought this in Dubai and they don't service after either. Sad. A great phone but they can't survive. The web sites, FBook and all also offer no support. Get on any msn msngr LG site and there is no support
my v10 fell on the carpet in the office and now there are fuckin lines all over the screen. the funny part is that the screen didn't crack or anything, just vertical lines and some discoloration. am I looking at buying a new screen?
i did, and still the same, i called Tmobile and they got me a replacement for free that will be sent to me over night, and i also spoke to one of the reps in the store he said with cases like mine i might get charged a non refundable $400 cuz they can blame me as i created "pressure point" on the screen where the lines are even thou there is no signs of physical damage the phone is in the case. and what pisses me off the most it fell from my waist. im just pissed.
Anyone know where I can get the black plate with camera lens and buttons? My camera lens cracked without dropping it and seems like a easy fix. Just hopefully the plate isn't $$$$$$$
That is the most subdued BOOM! Shacka-lacka ever. Come on Max, you butchered it! Say it like you mean it. You gotta at least sell it if you're gonna say it :-) In all seriousness though, thanks for the video.
OMG this is awesome, so every single part that can be damaged by dropping, except the screen, is user replaceable. I thought those stainless steel side frames are actually part of the screen assembly. OMG I really love LG rightnow, and I cannot be happier for using V10!!!
King of the Nonsense you can replace the screen too
I'm just not confident enough to disassemble brand new phones like this. Thanks Max! You're awesome!!
Nice video very informative! Can you tell us though if you've found some kind of a seal when opening the phone? How can we tell if it was previously opened or not? Thanks!

Max Great video, can you do another one about changing the lights. My bottom display light does not work half of the time. thanks

Any specific kind of Spray Paint recommended for the side rails?? I wanna do like Red or Gold on my ugly black one.
Hey Max, I see they sell a screen digitizer combo assembly. How hard do you thin it would it be to get the screen off the frame?
😨My face everytime Max disassembles a brand new phone! Great video & music btw.

hi. any idea where i can buy the replacement parts like the gold steel sides? thanks!

Any noticeable lag so far? I have the Galaxy S6 Edge, and I really want to jump onto LG... My Edge lags so much. :( I've never used LG so I want a a good honest comment.. does it lag or not? Last resort I will jump back to iPhone. ugh.
From what I've seen the LG V10 doesn't lag
LG Gets Boot Loop though
Boomshakalaka I was waiting for you to make this!!
you forget the flex cable of the 3.5mm audio jack
What is the point of the small black oval on the back of the phone?
does anyone know where the GPS antenna would be on this phone???
Nice video Max. I enjoyed the background music too.
k cool, i changed up the music since some of u got tired of same music.
+Max Lee (Zedomax) link to the background music?
EyeJayAre oh it's in the description but starts out with Mr. Pink which is sorta like Bob Marley.
Hey folks! is there anyone knowledgeable enough to point out where/what the antenna is here? I'm wanting to see if I can improve my gps/internet connection by modding the antenna itself or rigging something extra to it.
My favorite phone ever!!! It's big, heavy and bulky! And no other phone sounds that good on headphones with the 32 bit DAC. A shame that this model also had the proc overheating problem like the G4
why do you have a plastic bottom piece. mine is metal..
Great video max!!
Is that a black Huawei Watch you are wearing?
yes. he recently had a review of it so why not go watch it? :)
Great video, thanks. Mine was just a little different but close enough to get me through it. Baked the boot looping motherboard and was able to get everything off of it.
Boom shakalaka!

This video missed taking out the speaker, main camera, light thingy, and edge tetris pieces.
my v10 fell on the carpet in the office and now there are fuckin lines all over the screen. the funny part is that the screen didn't crack or anything, just vertical lines and some discoloration. am I looking at buying a new screen?
Probably a loose LCD connector try reconnecting.
i did, and still the same, i called Tmobile and they got me a replacement for free that will be sent to me over night, and i also spoke to one of the reps in the store he said with cases like mine i might get charged a non refundable $400 cuz they can blame me as i created "pressure point" on the screen where the lines are even thou there is no signs of physical damage the phone is in the case. and what pisses me off the most it fell from my waist. im just pissed.
THANKS MAN :)
꼭 한국어버젼도 부탁드립니당
잘봤어요!!
네 방금 만들었습니다. 곳 올릴께요~
damn USB port is about the only thing that goes bad on these phones.
awesome device
That's not a complete teardown. I was looking for a video on the rear camera lens with the fingerprint sensor.
you bent the steel rails in the wrong direction, on the phone it would never bend that way.
besides that,
Great video!
Anyone know where I can get the black plate with camera lens and buttons? My camera lens cracked without dropping it and seems like a easy fix. Just hopefully the plate isn't $$$$$$$
Awesome man
It Helped
amazing ,, thanks ☺
Sweet
would be cool if we could cahnghe and processor so easy ;)
good
V10 V10 V10 Lifes 👍
Nah, the back hard plastic rubber material kills the premium feel, now it only feels solid
yeah !! 👍👍
nice video
Shoot I need a new charging port!! What can I do?? 😰
Looks like this phone took a swim. Notice the red LCI sticker on the back of the mid-frame.
The usb port is not an easy fix I guess.... 😑😑😑 Thats useless because most android phones have problems with the usb connector...
boom shakalaka baby xD
@Max Lee as always #Awesome video #SHOA!!
But where is the CPU
Lg assemble!!
Hello sir👋
Hey how's it going? I'm Impressed! irate soap What do you think, guys... !!!
