For the record the board that I sent you came from a brand new, LePro 3 not opened bought in the spring 2018. However, I assume that it was made after Leecos public fall. I would guess that it was assembled with C grade parts, because my remaining, working LePro 3 is one of our first Leecos bought in 2016. It's also interesting to note that our 2 remaining X522s are both functioning just fine.

As you said could be the flex cables or just a shoddy soldering job that eventually shortened out the board.

Have you tested the board to be sure that it's not the port itself that is bad?

Another interesting thing to note is that Qualcomm removed Leeco from it's list of approved quick charge device list.

One last reason on why I feel that the charger itself may be part of the problem is that I have a 12 watt portable charger and the Leecos do not get hot at all when using it.

I threw my Leeco charging bricks in the trash after my daughter plugged in my Mi8 for me while I was cooking dinner. Not knowing that I had a preference, she used the Leeco charger.

Later when I checked the phone to see if it was finished charging, I found it was extremely hot, and this phone is rated for QC 4.0. So rather than taking any chances into the trash it went.
[LeEco Le Pro3 Guides, News, & Discussion] twistyplain:
Wow!! Leeco really must have used grade c parts. I haven't mistreated that board even once since you sent it. That means it only lasted three months! It is just unbelievably negligent for leeco to use these parts. They must have been from the reject pile.

I don't need to test the board because the USB-C receptacle on the phone is completely melted. Connecting a charging cable seems to cause it to heat up fast and start smoking. It might have been a short on the connector that caused it to burn up. I think the quality of the protruding part with the pin connectors is just poor and repeated use loosens the pins which eventually touch.

I'm done with leeco for good now. I was thinking about fixing the phone to sell but that now seems like a lost cause. I'll keep it until it's dead and then take a hammer to it. Even selling it for spare parts might be a loss for me so I'm stuck with it.
[LeEco Le Pro3 Guides, News, & Discussion] tsongming:
I am sure that they used low quality parts on those last batches of phone, I heard via a friend who lives in Shenzhen that they hired a 3rd party to assemble the final phones... The ones that came with 32gb drives, no nfc or quick charge etc. It sucks because they had so much potential.

Whatever you end up getting. Please do stay in touch, I have enjoyed our conversations and I wish you the best.

This puppy is not out yet. I figure it's got one last hurrah before I throw in the towel. I've been shopping around for a phone with similar performance for around the same price but from the current generation of phones and I've not come across anything else. At least not in the same price range. Performance is very important to me and I just can't take a downgrade. I guess I'm stuck with it for a while.
[LeEco Le Pro3 Guides, News, & Discussion] tsongming:
Its good that it's still working for now. Unfortunately you probably only have 4 to 6 weeks before it stops working completely. I was thinking about you situation and made the list below of additional options/good deals.

The Snapdragon 665 has similar performance to the Snapdragon 821 and the Note 8, (the version with the SD665) can be had for under $200 : https://www.amazon.com/Xiaomi-Displ...keywords=Snapdragon+665&qid=1573874157&sr=8-2

If you can spend a just a little more the Mi8's price has dropped to $250, https://www.amazon.com/Xiaomi-6-64G...ef=sr_1_1?keywords=Mi+8&qid=1573874317&sr=8-1 and I can't recommend it enough. It's definitely my most favorite phone that I have owned and I know that you care about the camera a lot. I can promise that the Mi 8 has one hell of a great camera, and stock camera, is absolutely fantastic, especially with video. In fact, I prefer it for video over the latest Pixel 7.XXX Camera and yes it does Astrophotography.

As I mentioned before the A3, is much better than you would ever expect and you can find them for $150.

If budget is a primary concern: It is definitely worth looking at among the best new phones for the money. Plus the bootloader is easily unlocked with no waiting period. if you want a new phone for around $150. I honestly can't think of a better phone, and as I mentioned my daughter has this phone, so I have actually used it, and I am telling you, it's damn good.

Another option is buying a used 128GB Pixel refurbished $120

I have seen them for as low as $75, or you could buy a One Plus 3T

Edit: I just now found this phone and although it has a mediatek processor, its brand new , has Android 9.0 , 4gb ram, 64 gb hd space and it's just a little over $100 UMIDIGI Power This may be the one, if you can deal with processor but there's a lot of people who say that this phone is great, I dont know if you can use roms, but I have heard that it doesn't have bloatware, so it be a smart buy. Edit : The $118 price is a lightning deal, and the price will go backup to $139 by the time you read this. In that case, I would personally avoid it, but I am am a little biased against mediatek for reasons. Mostly heat and poor battery life.

Tony, you're among very few people I know who are invaluable to communities like these. I'm always impressed by how easily you go out of your way to help community members at XDA. Thank you so much for always being helpful even when you don't have to be. If I had the means I would buy you several cases of beer (or whatever non-alcoholic beverage you like) just to say how much I appreciate you. But for now I can just say THANK YOU!! From the bottom of my heart.

Out of all the options you gave me just now and a few days ago, the brand new Mi A3 is the best option by far. Refurbished is a no-go and yes, I hate Mediatek too. Been there, done that, but once you've got a taste of Qualcomm, there's simply no going back. I'm inclined to go for the A3 because of its AMOLED screen, UFS 2.1, decent camera, and, most importantly, it's price-performance ratio. It doesn't beat the A2 in performance but it more than makes up for it in the additional features.

I am going to keep the pro 3 as long as I can to see if prices drop even more (I'm all about the value). It's only my charging port that's gone so I'm taking out the battery and charging it externally for as long as I can. Everything else works normally. I'm also on my last ROM for this phone -- I can't flash another one because I changed to TWRP 3.2.1 which doesn't see my internal storage anymore (encryption).
[LeEco Le Pro3 Guides, News, & Discussion] twistyplain:
Sorry I hadn't seen this post. The cheaper boards tagged as "copy" boards don't have working quick charge or ability to connect to pc for mtp file transfer. They're only good for slow charging and sometimes even that is hit or miss. The boards that cost between $25 and $30 are original leeco boards. Probably not brand new but original. They have all features of the original like quick charge, mtp, otg, cdla and everything else the new phone could do. I wouldn't even consider going close to the cheaper "copy" boards.

I had a single 50 cm baseus USB cable that i bought for around $4 and it was of very good quality. It even supported usb PD and it was built like a tank. Just holding it gives you confidence that it's gonna last a while. Even the board getting fried didn't damage the cable but I'm not using it again. The power pin on the usb cable changed from gold to just plain silver so it must have taken some damage. I would buy a new one to be safe.

I'm done repairing this phone for good. It's not worth the expense and there's too much uncertainty involved even after it's fixed. I could fix it and have it die barely a month later. That would be $50 down the drain. I'm not going through that again.
[LeEco Le Pro3 Guides, News, & Discussion] twistyplain:
It seems this phone is on its last leg now. Since yesterday the proximity sensor doesn't work. I think it must be all this opening and closing up of the metal shield to remove the battery. Also, the earpiece speaker only works in loudspeaker mode now. It doesn't work in calls. I think I might have an audio related software issue because sound isn't playing even if I play a music or video file. I have flashed another ROM but this behavior remains. Could this require me to flash persist?

Edit: The earpiece and proximity sensor are acting up because of the damaged USB board. Both work well when I use an app that tests hardware features. They are failing to work for phone calls and video playback because the phone is detecting that I have earphones plugged in. I figured this out when I reflashed a new PIE ROM and saw the headphone icon is always displayed on the status bar even without anything connected to the port. I guess the board getting fried messed up with jack detection.

[MENTION=7672955]tsongming[/MENTION] Please tell me if this motherboard is le pro3 x722 or le pro3 x720.

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1DD0JQRZe4t4KOmedt0eEThaGEOKBH3AZ/view?usp=sharing
[LeEco Le Pro3 Guides, News, & Discussion] tsongming:
I could be wrong but it doesn't look a x720, X727 or a x722. Which buy the way are all compatible, and X727 board will work in a x722 phone.

The heat shield is missing, of course it could have been removed and resoldered. But if you Google X522, of X626 it looks a lot more like a Le2 motherboard which would not work in a le pro 3 frame. I attached a photo of one of my X727's motherboard, As I mentioned all le pro 3 boards look alike.

Finally, here is some Le pro 3 boards for sale : https://www.aliexpress.com/w/wholesale-motherboard-leeco.html

On second thought it does look like a X722 motherboard. but as I mentioned the heat shield is missing, so someone removed it...why didn't they solder it back on? here is a Picture that confirms it : https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32852927750.html
[LeEco Le Pro3 Guides, News, & Discussion] twistyplain:
Are these people trying to be funny? How do they sell a motherboard for the same price as a complete phone? Check this out.

$134

https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/nHx1gbOC

But prices are more reasonable now because 4+32GB ranges around $60, 4+64 around $70. The 6+64GB Version is unreasonably pricey at $130!

This is encouraging. I just might try to sell my motherboard now.
[LeEco Le Pro3 Guides, News, & Discussion] tsongming:
That is a great idea.

As we learned in our Economics classes, when the demand is greater than the supply side the prices will rise.

Edit:

Regarding the OP, This same issue just happened to my last working Le pro 3. : (

Now I have none left to toy around with. I was able to get it running again temporarily by taking a hair dryer to the back of the phone for about 2 minutes. The phone started and an ran for one full day.

This essentially proves that the issue is a cold solder issue . Which means Leeco did a hal A$$ job with their soldering. One the other hand, this issue can absolutely be resolved by removing existing solder with flux and then reballing the board, next briefly apply heat with targeted heat in a brushing motion, and you phone should work for years.

Anyone with this exact issue, if you have a shop in your town that does any kind of component level repair. Ask them to reball your motherboard, and it should not cost more than $25, if you take them the board already removed from the phone

Who knows, maybe they can probably fix it while you wait. Unfortunately these types of shops are really hard to find these days when most shops just swaps out boards.
[LeEco Le Pro3 Guides, News, & Discussion] dkoek:
My Leeco X722 doesn't charge anymore. I replaced the charging cable and charging plug but that doens't help.

When I plug in the cable, it looks like its charging, at least it gives the information that it is charging and the charging light stays on, but in fact it is not charging at all.

Anyone knows what to do ? I love my Leeco..
[LeEco Le Pro3 Guides, News, & Discussion] way2aware:
I realize that I am way late to this thread... but after reading it all, I think it's worth mentioning that the absolute best 'bang for your buck' value in flagship level phones right now (march 9 2020) is the g7thinQ from LG (any model except for the OEM tmobile branded one as it cannot be bootloader unlocked nor rooted by any method). It's still early in its development here, but we have the firehose programmer file for it, working bootloader unlock for almost every model, and thus root, and there are several custom roms... Lineage and several GSI roms. The quality of the phone is excellent, with a bonus of an actual headphone jack, a kick ass internal speaker, and for you guys in this thread.... wireless charging :). The last two I've bought were very lightly used/ grade A condition for about $130.

Apologies if off-topic, just thought i'd mention it
[LeEco Le Pro3 Guides, News, & Discussion] likeorange:
Thanks for the tip [MENTION=6434367]way2aware[/MENTION] this kind of info is great. I spent days researching before arriving to the Lepro3 or the Zuk at the time. It had to be good bang for the buck with a good community. Someday I'll need to move on and this kind of tip will save me many hours.
[LeEco Le Pro3 Guides, News, & Discussion] twistyplain:
Any help to the community is appreciated. The G7 Thinq is an awesome phone. I just couldn't handle another heartbreak because I bought a supposedly new pro 3 but clearly it wasn't new. That was $200 down the drain because even [MENTION=7672955]tsongming[/MENTION] tried to help me out by sending me his sub board but it also got fried -- probably because the phone had an underlying issue. Now I have a brand new Redmi Note 9s 6+128 GB for $200 and I couldn't think of a better phone for the price. There's just so much more confidence in buying brand new.

[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] ShadowTechXTS:
I'm planning on buying a Oneplus 6T soon and I have a couple questions. I'm going to be using it on Verizon (and it looks to be compatible mostly) but I noticed on amazon the A6010 is cheaper than the A6013. From some research it looks like the A6010 is a China version and A6013 is global? So my main question is, would the A6010 work on Verizon? If so does it support the same custom ROMs as the A6013? Thanks in advance.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] Artnig:
Probably, according to this thread it's got the LTE band support for North America. https://forums.oneplus.com/threads/oneplus-6t-a6010-vs-a6013.951109/

But I'd make sure and do a bit more research, seems like if it has support for band 13 it will work on Verizon. You'd just have to probably switch it from HydrogenOs to OxygenOs by using some guide on this forum
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] ShadowTechXTS:
Alright cool, thank you!
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] tech_head:
The A6010 is the Chinese version and lacks some LTE bands. Also the IMEID of the A6010 variant is probably not in the Verizon whitelist. The device must be in the Verizon white list to work.

Also the A6013 is the version certified by Verizon to be compatible.

Do not buy the A6010 to save a few bucks. Buy the A6013.

If you buy the A6010 and it does not work, you only have yourself to blame.

You have been warned.

Edit - Not trying to be hostile. trying to save anyone a headache when/if it doesn't work because the IMEID is not whitelisted or whatever.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] ShadowTechXTS:
No need for the hostility. Jeez.

Anyway I checked frequencycheck.com and it looks like the A6010 has the required bands for Verizon (B2 1900, B4 1700/2100, and BE 700c). GSMArena also states the A6010 to have these bands. Is there a reason it wouldn't work other than that? I'd like to save "a few bucks" if I can.

EDIT: I also found a certified refurbished 6T A6013. Should I just get that instead?
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] tech_head:
I wasn't being hostile. I just was trying to strongly emphasize that you might run into issues with the A6010 on Verizon.

The IMEID might not be in the Verizon database since the A6010 was never released for the US and not FCC certified.

That being said, the A6010 comes with HydrogenOS and someone, either you or the seller would need to flash it to an OxygenOS variant.

Forget about the LTE support, it probably isn't in the IMEID database and probably won't register on the Verizon network.

Get the refurb 6T. Get a SquareTrade plan for dips and spills and call it a day.

Why take the chance on the A6010 and possibly have a phone that does not work on Verizon?
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] ShadowTechXTS:
You're right, I'm going with the refurb. Thank you!
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] luke2132:
Sorry for bumping an old thread, but I wanted to give my input to future googlers.

I went ahead and did not take heed of the advice given here, and bought an A6010 for use on verizon. My last phone was a Verizon branded Galaxy Core Prime so it was quite the jump for me. I can say with certainty you do NOT WANT TO BUY THIS MODEL OF PHONE FOR USE ON VERIZON! Unless you are very dedicated like me. The device is most likely not in the database but after over 11 hours of chat sessions online and phone calls (in total spanning a week), I got the tier 2 support to activate the phone in replacement of the core prime (more of a transfer than an activation) which wasn't that hard, but it was hard to get the "advanced technicians" to activate the CDMA-less feature necessary for the phone to work correctly.

In the end, my A6010 works 100% fine on verizon, only due to my stubbornness and perseverance. If you have a day to waste and really want a marginal discount, I suppose go for it. So yes, it is possible, and I might be able to help someone as I kept the last 2 online chatlogs, but it is very, very difficult. It took hours of searching forums all over the web from reddit to crackberry. Overall, I'm sorry to the user who has been vigilantly warning people not to use this model on verizon here and on reddit as well. I guess it's fair for you to say "I told you so" :) However I am happy where I am at now. This was such a draining and exhausting experience I just had to share it as a real life example of what not to do. But tbh if you are able to pick up this model under $300 by some miracle, chatting with 18 different support reps might actually save you some money.

Never again, Verizon.

No issues with the Verizon sim. Granted, the way they have this set up, the data speed is locked

at 5meg down and about 1meg up. But, we have 24 phones, and "unlimited" data, so I'm sure they

choke it down, so people don't just start downloading all sorts of crap.
