Antenna?

[augeydoggy]

Anyone know how to replace the V10 antenna, or even its location in the phone?

I found this teardown video on YouTube....

Thanks, but no mention of the antenna in that video (which I have used to replace the earpiece speaker and the power flex cable!)

Here's a website based guide. I also did not see an antenna listed at it. Perhaps that is not a replaceable part? Maybe if you replaced the whole motherboard? OR maybe its time to upgrade? V40 maybe, OR the V30 or V35?

I also found these videos, which may or may not help....

Heh, already upgraded to iPhone 7 - no more frickin LG for me. This phone had is motherboard replaced along with several other parts. But don't want to just throw it away as it also multiple batteries and SD cards. I think the antenna is in the top, but if no info or obvious parts probably not repairable.
