    Yeah, that's about where I'm at. Too bad - they were the highest rated place in the area. Anyways, thanks for your help on here.

    That's correct. When the problem reoccured after the battery replacement, I took it back to the same shop under their warranty and they opened it up and looked at it again, but didn't find any issues. Now that they've opened it up three different times to try and repair it, I'm thinking either...

    No. I removed it after the battery replacement and have not reinserted it since. I would like to try flashing the European firmware on it, to see if it makes any difference and will let me unlock the bootloader (it's a G710TM). So far I can't get the patched version of lgup to work so that I can...

    I successfully re-flashed the firmware using lg up. Sadly, the problem persists. Since it worked for that first day with a new battery, is it possible that something in the phone is damaging the battery? I've heard of some crazy things happening with SD cards, and mine was pretty old. I should...

    My phone won't connect properly to LG Bridge. I recognizes the phone model, but can't check the software version. Trying this : https://teknologya.com/flash-lg-g7-thinq-firmware/

    Thanks! No, I don't think they did. At first, they were convinced it only needed a battery replacement. After I took it back and told them it hadn't worked, they spent a couple hours with the phone playing with running down the battery and making sure it was installed correctly, but I think...

    Yeah, thanks! I'll probably avoid refurbished phones in the future... For now, since I'm stuck with it and have to figure something else out for a reliable phone anyways, maybe I'll try rooting it for fun. I've always wanted to learn, but was scared of bricking the phone.

    Thanks! I appreciate you responding! That's a bummer... I bought it on Amazon from a seller in the "Certified Renewed" program. They do have a 90 day warranty, but the seller did not have a comparable replacement to make an exchange. We worked out a deal where they paid for me to take it to get...
