Introdução

If your LG V40 ThinQ’s charging port is damaged, outdated, or not functional use this guide to replace it or as a prerequisite for many other repairs for this phone. This guide can help restore the charging port of the LG V40 Thin Q.

This guide requires the completion of two prerequisite guides before getting to the charging port. This guide requires the use of a iOpener, iFixit Opening Picks (Set of 6), Phillips #000 Screwdriver, and a Jimmy. The process is difficult and requires care to avoid damaging internal components. Follow each step closely and make sure to power off your device before starting and disconnecting from any external power source.
