Follow this guide to replace the logic board in your Google Pixel 8 Pro.
Replacing the logic board requires removing the battery, which is a difficult process. If the battery gets bent, creased, or damaged during removal, you'll need to replace it.
You'll need replacement screen adhesive to complete this repair.
Note: This guide was made with the 5G mmWave antenna model of the Pixel 8 Pro. If you have the non-mmWave version, you can still use this guide—just skip the steps that mention the 5G mmWave antenna.
