Introduction

If your battery is swollen, take appropriate precautions.

This guide instructs you to remove the back panel assembly; this is intended to prevent damage to the display cables. If you feel comfortable supporting the display carefully while peeling the battery out of the LG K30, you can skip the display removal and go directly to the battery removal steps.

For optimal performance, after completing this guide, calibrate your newly installed battery: Charge it to 100% and keep charging it for at least two more hours. Then use your LG K30 until it shuts off due to low battery. Finally, charge it uninterrupted to 100%.

What you need

Step 1

              Battery
  • Before disassembling your LG K30, discharge the battery below 25%. A charged lithium-ion battery can catch fire and/or explode if accidentally punctured.
  • Power off your Phone before beginning disassembly.
  • Use the ‘Jimmy’ and ‘Metal Spudger’ to slowly pry open the outsides of the back case.

There’s no description of removing the display or supporting it. Why is an LG K30 screen with frame required?
