Android Central Question

Hello,
So my LG G5 won't start right now, when I charge it, the LED will flash red lights and shows the battery at 0 percentage. Been charging for 12 hours. I thought the battery could be the problem. Borrow my friend's G5 Battery, tried it and still the same.
Anyone know how to fix this?

Thanks

The charger (the parts in the phone - what you plug into the wall is just a power supply) has at least one bad part. You need to find a repair shop that will replace parts. (Most just replace the motherboard, and that's a lot more expensive.) (And, of course, they have to be able to figure out which parts are bad, which is why most of them won't replace parts - they're parts-replacers, not technicians, so the "part" they know is bad is the motherboard.)

It could be a problem with the lower module but know way of telling unless you can find someone with a module that works
