Einleitung

This guide will walk you through the steps to remove the charging port from your LG CU400. It will help remove the battery, the lower half casing, the removal of the motherboard from the phone casing, and the removal and replacement of the charging port on the motherboard. Before doing this, be aware that you will be unable to use your phone until the replacement is complete and the phone fully reassembled. You should also be careful when handling the motherboard because it has delicate wires extending from it. This guide also requires a soldering iron that can be dangerous to use. The following video has information on micro soldering: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jGZKsuaJ...
