LG G5 not booting. 0% Battery screen - LG G5 Questions & Answers

Hello,
I have been struggling to find a solution for months now. My problem with the LG G5 started when it complained about the bottom cover. Every now and then it would show a screen that the bottom cover is not plugged in correctly. By unplugging and plugging it a few times the screen would go. Eventually, although I am not sure if it is related, the phone stopped turning on. When the USB cable is plugged in I get a screen showing the battery is at 0% and the red LED flashes as well.
I have tried the following:
1) Replaced the battery
2) Replaced the bottom cover
3) Inspected the logic board and cleaned it with a PCB cleaner.
Note that the phone had no contact with water.
I would really appreciate it if someone knows what could be the fault.
Many thanks

[Q] Intermittent power - hardware problem

Got a problem that I am hoping someone else knows how to solve:
Device: AT&T Atrix 4G stock 2.3.4 rooted (BL still locked)
Issue: Phone will not turn on or charge
Symptomshone suddenly turned off during a phone conversation the other day and now it will not turn on or charge. I noticed the phone was pretty hot when this occurred. Nothing happens when I hold the power button.I tried a new battery and same result. If I plug the moto charger in about half way I can get the green LED to come on but pushing in the rest of the way and it goes off and does not show battery image or moto screen. Plugging the phone into a PC causes a solid green LED. I have tried with a different charger (5.0V 2.1A) and same result as moto charger. If I plug in charger and then add battery and then hold power button it consistently will try to turn on (green led,screen powers up, and moto image for a second) and then it shuts off. I did this a bunch of times and noticed upper left corner of Phone getting warm (where the headphone jack is). I opened then phone up and didn't see any obvious problems. I bent a couple of the large spring pins around the headphone jack out for better connection and reassembled phone. Then it powered up like normal overnight but has been shutting off randomly. I was able to remove battery to get it to boot back up for a couple days but now it is dead again.
Any ideas? I am pretty sure I have a hardware or electrical connection problem. I really appreciated any guidance. Thanks.

[Q] Power button issues

Gentleman, my optimus g is showing some really strange behavior. If the battery is fully charged, or above 60%, it works flawless, after it drops below that, there is a chance that the power button will start locking in the pressed down position. After this happens, it is a no come back, the phone keeps bootlooping until the battery goes dry. At first I thought this was a problem with the battery, I got It replaced and the problem persists. I am starting to think this is a problem with the power button flex cable, and I was wandering if anyone knows how to replace it. I've replaced cell phone's screens and such, I have taken the motherboard out and found the flex cable, but I am not sure how to remove it, as it seems that it is firmly glued to the chassis. If anyone could give me some suggestions I would appreciate it, thanks

My LG Zero is dead...kinda

So yesterday the LG zero got dropped in the toilet and died. Then my brother took it apart and cleaned everything and it got back to life! But it's not over yet! Then it died again. I plugged it on the wall charger and a charging screen appeared saying 0%. Left it for a while but doesn't seem to wake up. The screen doesn't turn on,however i can feel the vibration when i hold the power button.In addition when i plug it on my computer,i can transfer files.At the moment of writing,it's plugged on a wall charger and there's a red light on the top right corner. Is there any easy fix or it's a hardware issue?
Bummer

Lg g5 wont charge or turn on

Hi folks
Have an issue i think its straightforward battery replacement and ordered one off amazon already but will take time to get to me
Just wondering if anyone has same issue or can clarify /verify my suspicion
Today my wife's lg g5 was on 7% in a 4 minute window it shutdown itself since then when plugged in with several chargers and cords the phone does not charge no led indicator light either
As such wont turn on
Ive pulled battery and put back in, usb port is clean and screen doesnt turn on for anything
Im thinking the battery is just... Dead
Any comments /suggestions?
Thanx in advance
I had a similar problem. When the phone turned off itself after discharge the battery, I can't turn it on. Even after plugged charger some minutes does not LED indicator light. And after several minutes with charger, phone is ON. My old battery is bad, with my new battery all the same.

I’m having the same issue, I’ve tried a new battery and all that happens is that the phone gets warm and the phone is complete dead. I don’t know what’s wrong with it.
I have two dead ones too here. one died in februar, the other yesterday.
No Solution found yet. Led is not working, phone gets warm while charging.
I really want to access the data on the Mainboard, i hope that someone will find a solution.
On youtube comments i have read from several others who experienced the same..
Same problem here
My phone had an argument with the toilet.
I dried it out and it booted up just fine.
Then left it charging. It got hot then froze. I striped it all down and dried it out again, but it now appears dead.
My wife has a G5 so I'm able to fully charge batteries in hers and try them in my phone, but to no avail.
If I put the battery in and press the power button, it vibrates, but no sound, no screen, not USB recognised.
I've tried everything to recover it including but not limited to:
stock charger
multiple different USB cables
plug in to PC
plug into PC while pressing volume up/down and various other combinations
4 different bottom modules (2 standard, 2 cam plus)
stripped it down completely and cleaned all the connectors with isoproply alcohol
Seems to be dead as a dodo.
I have pictures and videos of my son on there that I'd love to recover.
Has anybody successfully recovered data off of the internall MMC from a dead motherboard?
Thanks!

You can get data from your Google backup. If you had backups turned on go out to Google from a laptop and download the last backup before it died. It should have all your pics etc

P30 Lite Charging Problem

Hello,
firstly i m sorry if this is the wrong section, i m new here.
Now to the issue. I have a Huawei P30 Lite with broken LCD. I replaced the LCD with an original Huawei service pack which included LCD, Frame, Earpiece, Battery, buttons etc. Basically it included everything except motherboard, charging board and coaxial cable. The problem is that after the replacement the phone is not charging. At first it was showing that it was charging without any success (% going down instead of up). After the phone battery drained, there is no charging at all.
Doing a full hardware check i noticed that there was indication of water damage on the charging port. I replaced the whole charging board. Still same result.
Reinstalled the old LCD pack (battery had some juice in it still for testing) with the same results. When the phone is turned on, i get a charging signal and the LED indicator but without actual charging. When phone is turned off i dont even get the LED indication of charging.
Steps i already took to save time:
Changed the charger. Used up to 2.1A charger with fast charge cable aswell.
Changed the charging board.
Tried both new and old battery, internal connectors etc
Cleaned the whole motherboard with alcohol to get rid of any debris even though there is nothing visible
The phone was working normally before the lcd replacement.
The phone is working perfectly with the remaining battery and was working perfectly until the new battery drained aswell. Only problem is the charging.
Cannot perform cache cleaning since battery is dead
Software upgrades, reinstalling etc will certainly not be of any help since the phone is not charging when turned off.
I am trying to avoid costly and time consuming repairs since the only fault i can assume anymore is human error which most likely i would have noticed during the repair. I cant accept that the main board died suddenly after a simple 2 part replacement and the only thing affected was the one that had water indication on it which didnt affect it so far.
I am looking for any kind of ideas since i am totally out of them.
thank you for listening.
Hey, i know its 1 year later but i wanted to ask you about this. I had the exact same problem as you with a p30 lite aswell. Did you find out where was the problem? Could you fix it? Thanks
