Good work, Pictures are clear and easy to follow
Just a minor item. On step 4 it tells you to remove the gyroscope, then remove the speaker. On on the unit I worked in you had to remove the speaker so you could get remove the gyroscope. I was working on the 8.0 instead of the 7.0 model, so perhaps that accounted for the difference.
Where do you buy the new charging port you need to put in? It's like gold lined teeth top and bottom.
Also on his LG can we turn it into a prepaid monthly service if we get a at&t sim card kit or something similar?
