Introduction

Go to step 1

Shutdown the LG V10 before replacing any component. If your music or other audio emitted from the phone's loudspeaker is distorted but is completely fine when listened through headphones/earphones, then the phone’s loudspeaker may need to be replaced.

Wedge the flat end of the plastic spudger, or the tip of your finger, in between the back cover and the LG V10’s charging port.
If using a spudger, it should not be in the charging port, but between the metal lining of the charging port and the back cover.
Carefully lift up on the spudger or with your finger so that the back cover pops up. The rest of the back cover should easily come off by sliding a finger or spudger under the back cover and around the sides.

Step 2

There’s an impression next to the battery for the user to use their finger to pry the battery out; pry the battery out using your finger or the flat end of the spudger.
