Introduction
If your LG G7 ThinQ (model IMEI 358159091436289) is not holding a charge, is dying quickly or will not power on, use this guide to replace the battery.
The battery powers the phone and allows it to turn on. A faulty battery may cause the phone to not stay charged for long or not turn on at all.
Before using this guide, inspect the charging port for debris that may be interfering with charging. Typically, a small buildup of dust can be removed using an ESD-safe brush or small dust blower. Also, check the charger with multiple other phones to make sure that the battery is the problem.
This guide requires the removal of the battery. If you think your battery may be swollen use this link.
Before beginning, make sure the phone is powered off and is disconnected from any source of power.
