Can I use an LG G2 "Optimus" LCD/Digitizer replacement part on a LG G2? Model is D801. I cannot tell if this is the same...

Here is a quick diagram of the phone broken down. You will have to break it down to frame and lcd display, then I'm guessing you have to heat gun + pry the lcd off of the frame. Be careful of the bottom logic board (bottom right inside the frame). It appears to be adhesived to the frame (so light heat for prying), and it has two flex cables attached to it. You will also have to detach the flex cables from the lcd to the frame when heat prying it off. Take note of the flex cables look and location on the replacement part. It will help you locate them in the phone during the removal process of the shattered screen: https://www.ebay.com/i/362092018097?chn=... Good luck and God Bless!!!

Awesome. Thanks!!!

Also, try to find a distributor who has a process for defective parts. If you get in good with your distributor, you don’t have to test your “stock inventory” parts upon arrival.

What you can do is receive the item, then two months later if it is defective…send it back in a batch of defective parts. If you can work the deal properly (because you’re a regular customer), all you need to do is put a list of the items in the defective box with the details of their malfunction and send them back.

We send all of our cracked displays to our distributor for recycling, so we were able to get a sweet deal on buying “some” parts and with defective parts.
