LG K20 PLUS Motherboard Removal
Step 1 | Remove the back cover and battery
Insert a fingernail or opening pick into the designated area to release the plastic clips.
Be careful not to damage surrounding components.
Lift up the battery to access its mounting points.
Step 2 | Midframe
Remove 11 Philips screws.
Step 3
Use a credit card or opening pick to pry the midframe from its plastic clips.
- Begin at the top edge of the device and work your way down, ensuring all clips are released.
Be careful not to damage any components, as the headphone jack passes through the midframe.
Step 4 | Rear-Facing Camera
- Disconnect the front camera flex from its connector using a Halberd spudger or an opening pick.
Step 5 | Motherboard Removal
Disconnect the display flex cable from its socket on the motherboard using a Halberd spudger or an opening pick.
- Insert an opening pick between the motherboard and frame, starting from the bottom, to lever apart.
- Be careful not to break the motherboard.
The top part of the motherboard is lightly adhered to the frame — risk of damage.
- After removal, compare the original and replacement parts. Some components may be installed on the new display assembly.
