Introduction

Is your LG Neon GT 365 screen cracked, unresponsive, or displaying glitches? If so, you’re not alone. Screen damage is one of the most common phone issues, often caused by accidental drops or impact. This guide is here to help you fix these problems on your own, saving time and money on professional repairs.

By replacing the screen, you'll likely resolve issues such as touch sensitivity problems, display glitches, dead pixels, or complete unresponsiveness.

    • Place your phone upside down on a flat surface.

    • Using your other hand, stabilize the phone and press the rectangular button located on the top.

  2. BTaF1N3hst1KADFx
    • Using the same hand you pressed the button with, remove the rear cover.

  3. GjR1ZXMpm3n6cjG3
    • Using the appropriate drill/screwdriver bit unscrew the small black screws securing the back cover and internal components.

    • Make sure the ribbon connector does not get caught.

    • After removing the slide panel the back of the screen will be visible.

    • Carefully peel the three pieces of tape of the phone. The first two pieces of tape are green located at the bottom left and bottom right of the phone.

    • Hold the horizontal copper ribbon down with 2 fingers on each side of the tape.

    • Then carefully peel off the golden piece of tape circled, without ripping or damaging the copper ribbon

    • Carefully, disconnect the copper-colored ribbon.

    • Some of the copper colored ribbon may remain attached at the top, which is fine.

    • Go around and under the silver LCD, essentially breaking its seal.

    • Follow the instructions in reverse to reassemble the phone with your new screen.
