Same with mine I think I just need the glass did you replace it
[LG Optimus G Pro] Ahad Ejaz:
Not yet the shipping is taking longer than I expected
[LG Optimus G Pro] azawadzki6:
I just did the screen replacement, and my LCD isn't lighting up either. This is the first time I've done a repair like this. If the LCD connector is the connection below the digitizer connection, I have plugged that in, and even though it's in, I still have a blank screen. Any other suggestions? I'm hoping to avoid replacing the LCD in the event that I caused even larger problems than I set out to fix.
[LG Optimus G Pro] optimusv45:
You probably messed up something along the way. I would go back in there and make sure everything is plugged in good. I pressed on the connectors pretty good when I did mine to make sure they were on there good
[LG Optimus G Pro] MrKite4:
Double check the ribbons, I replaced a screen on a different phone and tore the ribbon to where it was barely noticeable but it was enough to cause the LCD to not work.
[LG Optimus G Pro] azawadzki6:
What was the result of that? Did you have to replace the LCD as well?
[LG Optimus G Pro] OreoMaster:
IF there are no torn cables, then its likely because of a problem with power button. Check here for the solution [YOUTUBE]http://youtu.be/ZX8fMnFtOus [/YOUTUBE]
[LG Optimus G Pro] MrKite4:
Sorry for the late reply, I actually meant to say the digitizer ribbon is what I tore but from that being torn the LCD would stay black but you could still tell it was lit. I did not have to replace the LCD though, just the digitizer. Just look closely at the ribbons.

E980 touch screen problems

I recently replaced a touch screen digitizer on my LG optimus pro E980 following this guide. It all seemed to go fine but when i got it all put back together the touch screen wasnt working. It turned on and it looked fine but the touch screen is not responding at all. I took it apart again and double checked everything was snapped together tight and no ribbons are torn, not sure what to do to fix it.
[LG Optimus G Pro] Ahad Ejaz:
im facing a similar problem the phone doesnt dettect any touches and sometimes when i reboot and sometimes it only detects my touches if i use two or more fingers

though if i get lucky after a couple of reboots it starts working fine but then if i turn it off and then turn it on i face the same problem
[LG Optimus G Pro] vzjtothalo:
Kudos to Repairs Universe for the guide! I successfully replaced my cracked screen, and it works like a charm!
[LG Optimus G Pro] esimon311:
A word of advise. If you are doing your Owen screen replacement. Make sure you put plenty of adhesive all the way around your screen. I didn't and now I'm getting dust and lint between my screens. Just a tiny bit at first but it's been a couple months now And I'm contemplating, removing my screen cleansing to remove dust and 're-applying my adhesive & screen.

[LG Optimus G Pro] Ahad Ejaz:
Guys make sure that the touch screen digitzer you buy is supplied from lg and any other source there is a chance that he screen may be defective or it may not work e.g

http://www.amazon.com/Original-Scre...d=1398873831&sr=1-20&keywords=g+pro+digitizer

this is supplied by LG you can tell by looking underneath the title of the add

i ordered this one

http://www.amazon.com/L-04E-Digitiz...d=1398873831&sr=1-14&keywords=g+pro+digitizer

and now im facing problems with the touch response sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't

though it could be due to the replacement process i may not have installed it properly, one can never be too cautious

use your money to get the right product dont go for the cheaper ones
[LG Optimus G Pro] optimusv45:
I have the dust issue too. Pay a more , get one in good condition, so you won't need to fool with the screen
[LG Optimus G Pro] Ahad Ejaz:
Is it possible that the touchscreen digitizer has the upper screen working and lower screen not.

i went to the technician who replaced my screen hes say the bar of the screen in which the five shortcuts on the homescreen lie arent working is this possible or is my technician just trying to get more money from me so he can buy the screen himself and charge me more

PLZ can SOMEONE REPLY ASAP

i used the phone quite a bit and this was what i experienced

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2687156&page=2

After a couple of reboots it started working perfectly so is this an issue with the connection or the screen itself

Thanks in advance

Hoping for a quick reply

Screen Replacement Ebay

hi, i bought a digitizer screen glass replacement from ebay, and i used online tutorial to fix it.

I cannot publish the link to listings but i purchased from wholesaleblimited seller.

You get tools and Adhesive. However, i am 100% sure that screen glass is not original, despite it works good.
[LG Optimus G Pro] cmm324:
Hopefully someone can give me some insight. I picked up a water logged E980 for $50, I took it apart, soaked the board in denatured alcohol, cleaned all the contacts of the other components, dried it all, did some touch up cleaning in a few spots then reassembled.

I am not familiar with the functionality of the E980, I have an S3 currently. When I plugged it in to try and charge up the battery, the bottom touch buttons lit up, blinking. Then after a few moments, the camera flash lights up and the LG logo flashed on the screen for about 3 seconds and the home button began to cycle rainbow colors. Then the logo went away and the home button continues to cycle colors with the touch buttons solid lit on either side.

I have some hope that this device can be resurrected, just trying to figure out where I am at and what I might need to do next.
[LG Optimus G Pro] luisoman2000:
Looks like it is stuck on bootloop, you might want to flash a rom on it. Hold down volume up and down buttons and connect to PC to enter download mode, then flash with lg flash tools.
[LG Optimus G Pro] cmm324:
Was going to try that, but the phone wasn't responsive. I stopped in at the ATT store near me just a few minutes ago and asked if they could had another battery I could try, they did and the phone booted up right into Android! Woot! I fixed it. Now I just need a new battery. :D

Urgent guidance required

Urgent guidance required..I am in India using e980 model (ATT unlocked). The Indian model available here in e988. My phone's LCD and Touch screen both got broken and I am unable to find any replacement LCD of e980 model here. I want to know if LCD of Indian e988 model will get fit and work on e980 model?

Any ideas please..
[LG Optimus G Pro] mityman50:
Gonna post here, let's see if anyone's still reading.

So I replaced the screen, all good there. Upon booting, the power button does nothing. When I plugged it in, it goes to the LG boot screen like normal for a normal amount of time (about 3 seconds), along with the LED button flashing all the colors like normal. Then it goes to a black screen for about 3 seconds, all the while the LED flashing. Then the LG screen pops up just for a moment, then it goes to the normal charging-while-the-phone-is-off screen, and the LED flashes red like normal.

Pretty odd behavior. I tried a new battery just for kicks, no change. Google isn't being helpful but I'm not done yet. Anyone have any thoughts?

Update: I tried booting into recovery. Nothing happened until I released the keys, then it went to LG screen, then black, then to LG, then to an unusually long AT&T screen, then it booted. Now the power button works, but whenever it boots it does go through that odd cycle. Also it seems I can't boot into recovery mode. Don't know how I feel about that.

Worse than that though, I've got a dead zone that's across the whole screen, roughly at and as wide as the qwerty row. Dunno what to do about that. Will try cleaning the digitizer connection with rubbing alcohol and a Q-tip.

See here for updates.

Sensitivity Problems

Hi guys,

be careful about electronic parts quality. I bought two digitizer from two different seller but both of them were low quality.

Have a look this:
[LG Optimus G Pro] ivoh95:
I bought two digitizers from ebay, one white, one black. Both claiming to be original. The white one may have been, but the black one i got was not. The touch matrix was visible under the sun and 40 days later the screen is more scratched then the original got in 1year and it cracked again very easy. So be very careful with the quality of ebay parts.
[LG Optimus G Pro] bibek86:
Can you provide some suggestion

Hi! I dropped my phone and since then my screen has become like this:

The portion with the black bar registers touches fine and the screenshot that took from the phone looks like this:

So what I don't know is which part of the screen is causing this problem and what should I replace in order to fix it. Or can it be fixed without replacement? I mean I was wondering if this is caused by some loose connection.

Thanks.
[LG Optimus G Pro] cmm324:
Found out that it was a bad battery, replaced it and it works great now.

wifi module

im looking for some help. my wifi and bluetoothe is not working on my e980. im looking for a replacement part. is this replaceable or is it built in to the board?
[LG Optimus G Pro] jorrddan:
Hi, try to reconnect the display flex cable.

Or buy new one from bay or else. I found new replacement for under $20
[LG Optimus G Pro] mityman50:
I'm actually going to guess that's the LCD since the screen still registers touch on the black side. That's a much pricier fix. Might just want to look into getting a new phone.
[LG Optimus G Pro] jason504:
Ok guys I have a crack in my screen it's just in the corner. So all I need is to replace the glass not the lcd right? Also how difficult is it to do. I saw a video on how to do it but I want to hear it from someone like us that did it. Because I don't want to screw the whole phone up doing it? Thanks
[LG Optimus G Pro] amo760:
re wifi question

any ideas regarding the wifi chip/module? i have restored the phone to factory default and the wifi and Bluetooth are still not working. is this a board issue?
[LG Optimus G Pro] oVeRdOsE.:
Gorilla Glass 2, even if you have the ''real'' one or the aftermarket one, they still the worst gorilla glass ever made. And more your screen is big, more you'll have moment forces in it, so more chance to break it.

correct. The digitizer is easy to change. A hair dryer is enough to unglue it, no need of a real heatgun. The tricky part is to get the ribbon cable connector out of the plastic frame.
[LG Optimus G Pro] ackliph:
I MUST comment on this tutorial! I have tried 2 screens from two different Amazon sellers. BOTH were bad. You couldn't touch the phone while it booted or the screens wouldn't work. Even after booting they were off the mark.

I purchased 1 screen from Repairs Universe and that's all I needed. Super awesome adhesive (its the black gooey stuff, not clear tape) and the screen works JUST like stock.

Save your time and effort, just order from these guys!
[LG Optimus G Pro] mityman50:
Thank you for this endorsement. I should chime in as well: I bought two different screens from eBay (one from Eden's Designs, one from wholesalegadgetfix which came from a company called EXelektronix) and both were faulty.
[LG Optimus G Pro] Fant0m3:
I bought repaired successfully 10 or 12 devices for the screen very easy to do the hardest part is running the sticky tape down the sides of your screen
[LG Optimus G Pro] ackliph:
My screen from Repairs universe is now broken. I took apart my phone to observe the GPS chip.. Now I have unresponsive bands across the right side and near the top. Why?
[LG Optimus G Pro] mityman50:
All you can do is disassemble, clean the contacts on the mobo and the ribbon cable with a q-tip dipped in rubbing alcohol. Make sure not to leave any fuzz. And triple check that the connector is in snug before putting it back together.
[LG Optimus G Pro] oVeRdOsE.:
if you won't run the sticky tape, you can just seal around the home button before installing the glass and around the edges after installing the glass with clear nail polish.

way faster, efficient, invisible, cleaner job and removable
[LG Optimus G Pro] Fant0m3:
Thanks,

I've also been using the liquid adhesive as of late way easier and gets into the tight places nice
[LG Optimus G Pro] beatphreek:
So the screen replacements from repairs universe come with the adhesive already?
[LG Optimus G Pro] mityman50:
Yep. It's a square of adhesive that you have to cut some pretty thin strips from, so have good fine scissors, a steady hand, and a pair of tweezers will help, too.

You don't need to use much, either. I just did a replacement with a Repairs Universe screen last night and here's where I placed strips:

a ~3 inch long strip on the right and left side of the screen (not a strip that runs the entire length of the screen)

a ~1 inch strip above and below the home button

a ~1 inch strip at the top-center

short strips diagonally at each corner

It's on totally snug, I have no concerns about it falling off at all.

I feel I should post my first impressions after having the screen for a day. It's definitely not OEM, for starters, in either look or quality. The lines of the Back and Menu buttons are just a little bit thinner, but that's not the issue. Sometimes swipes register as touches, I haven't figured out a rhyme or reason to this but sometimes it happens countlessly in a row and it's hella annoying. Other times it just won't register a touch at all. This is more rare, but also very, very annoying.

But I should note that this is still the best screen that I've purchased (this is now the 4th one I've tried, from three different sellers). I'm going to stick with it since Repairs Universe doesn't take returns if it has adhesive on it. Not to mention I wouldn't know who else to buy from. It's a damn shame, really, that LG isn't selling the OEM anymore. Knowing what I know now, I'd pay $40 for one, easily.

[LG Optimus G Pro] fungo45:
Is this what you are recommending?

http://www.repairsuniverse.com/lg-optimus-g-pro-e980-touch-screen-digitizer-replacement.html

It doesn't look like the adhesive is included - is that correct? It looks like I have to add that on for $2.99.

I'm interested in hearing more on the liquid adhesive you guys are talking about . Can you post a link?

Thanks!
[LG Optimus G Pro] ivoh95:
Im not sure, im on my second ebay screen. First was crap and only lasted a few weeks. The second was much better, but still cracked after a few months but that was probably because of the terrible adhesive. I was thinking of ordering another screen and using uv adhesive, but im still weary. Search for uv adhesive on ebay to see what im talking about.

Just bought my 2nd Repairs Universe screen after I broke the ribbon cable on my first one. I cheaped out and bought an ebay screen. Big mistake. Repairs universe screens are seriously the only ones that work properly on the e980.

Edit: Just got my RU screen installed. It had all the same markings as the eBay screen, but it works PERFECT.
[LG Optimus G Pro] hawkwind212:
I just broke my digitizer this afternoon when I went for a walk. I had the att flip cover on, but the phone drop and hit the corner that weren't covered. Now my cornin monkey glass 2 has a bunch spider web cracks at the bottom left corner of my lg e980. Other than the broken glass, my phone is working fine. I still want to replacement the broken glass sometime. I like to know if is possible to buy the real oem part? I notice there are some claim to be oem, but many people that have gotten them say they are not the real oem parts. I remeber buying oem lg usb cable from this seller. At first they did sell me the real lg usb cables, then a while later when I bought the cable again, they were all something else with poor quality. Is there a seller anyone can recommend that sells the good quality parts? Also, if let my local repair shop repairing it, you think they will use the real lg part? Consider they will charge me probably $85 to fix it. Else do you think they will just take me for a sucker, and use the cheapest part possible, because they think I'll probably not notice the different?

Edit: I'm so glad that I decide to go with ru. Their part works and looks absolutely perfect. My first screen repair job and it turns out to be a great experience.

Problem to power on / bubbles

Hey everyone.. Hoping there is still someone reading this...

I replaced my cracked screen from the optimus g pro today and i currently am having 2 problems!

My phone doesn't want to start! if i put it in the charger the screen does work and shows the charging battery icon, but it won't turn on!

Secondly, i am seeing some kind of 'bubbles' under my screen, you can see it all across the edges and a big one in the middle of the screen :(

Is there anything i can still do or do i just give up, **** it all and pay 150€ to let someone in a shop do it for me?
[LG Optimus G Pro] hawkwind212:
Hey mate, did you remember to take the protective film off the replacement screen?
[LG Optimus G Pro] Curryfloe:
Hey! I did remove it :P but thanks for replying, it could've easily been that!
[LG Optimus G Pro] hawkwind212:
The device is harder to turn on with the cable plug in, so try to turn it on without the cable. Make sure all the flex cable connectors are connected. I just took my device apart again today, it seems to enhance the performance for some reason. I will check the power button to make it's making contact with the power switch. Go even as far as touch the power switch manually to see of the problem is with improper placement of power button. BTW, where is the surface those bubbles at? Is it appearing at your digitizer glass or the display screen?
[LG Optimus G Pro] Curryfloe:
I actually tried doing all those things yesterday and none of it seemed to resolve the issue.

As for the bubbels, they appear to be between the glass and the lcd..

Since i really am out of idea's i am going to the repair shop today and i hope they find the problem :/

If they get it fixed i will post the solution!

Fingers crossed ^^

Thanks for your help!!
[LG Optimus G Pro] Curryfloe:
Problem solved!

So for anyone who might be interested..

I went to the repair shop and when the guy opened my phone there was nothing that seemed to be misplaced or wrong, so he closed it back up to see what it would do in the charger and when he tried to turn it on ( before plugging it in ) it just magically started!

I have opened it up myself afterwards to remove the screen to check the 'bubbles' and after closing it up it still worked like a charm!

As for the bubble issue, i removed the screen once more and it seemed to be that some kind of fluid got in touch with it and dried up (stupid me) wich created the big circle in the middle... On the sides however it seemed as if there was some adhesive left from removing the protective layer! I cleaned it all up and everything works now! :victory:

I guess the trickis to keep trying :p

Thanks for the help!
[LG Optimus G Pro] User567:
Thank you for the information. I replaced my broken lcd and digitizer. When I turn the phone on, the screen looks fine, but does not respond to touch. I've gone back and made sure everything was connected. I did use some old adhesive tape from another part of my phone, to hold down the wide ribbon cable that the digitizer cable is glued to. What could be the problem?
[LG Optimus G Pro] hawkwind212:
Bad digitizer glass, did you buy it from repairs universe?
[LG Optimus G Pro] jorrddan:
Your phone using Kit Kat right, try to enter in hidden menu and find "update driver" in screen settings. If this don't work, try to flash it with jelly bean stock rom.

Some chinese digitizer don't work with 4.4.2.

Good luck!

Hi everyone.

I just ordered a new digitizer for my G Pro.

I already tried to change the digitizer of a LG G2, but i cracked the LCD, because the Digitizer and LCD were fuzed together.

This isnt the case with the G Pro, right??

It's unusual for a smartphone. Are there any other (latest) smartphones where the LCD and the Digitizer aren't fuzed together?

Thanks in advance. I will report if my repair went fine :)

Regards
[LG Optimus G Pro] jorrddan:
In LgOGP the screen glass and LCD display are separated and you can change only one of them without affecting other.

Latest models are with One glass solution displays. In this case you need a stand, uv lamp etc. to replace only screen glass.
