Power botton - Sprint LG Optimus G

Anyone have any idea as to where I can purchase a power bottom for my LG Optimus G? Mine feel off when I did a battery pull a few days ago and haven't found it ever since lol. I've tried eBay and amazon...no dice. Any suggestions?

Try a local Sprint store.

It would have to be a repair center Sprint store that happens to have a bad LGOG that they haven't sent back yet.

DON'T VACUUM! It's there...somewhere

Hey, when I use to fix watches we dropped stuff from time to time. The best thing you can do is sweep the room into a dust pan. Then sift through the contents.

This. And hopefully you have TEP, or they may charge you $35 for the repair IF they even have a part to harvest.

If the area you dropped it on was carpeted take a strip of duct tape and loop it around inside out so the sticky side with the glue is on the outside. Roll the tape all over the floor and hope something sticks.
If you can't find it, try going to a non corporate sprint store and see if they can help. At my store, they know the mods I do on my phones, so they will usually help me out if I need a small part.

You could try a NON corporate sprint repair center. Most of the ones I've ever been to will do it and sometimes free. In my case they just write a note saying the something else was defective and replace the screen (or phone). Most times if they can get the money from sprint they'll do anything

they don't care if its rooted. This is not a manufacturers warranty, its a 3rd party private insurance. They insure hardware, not software

Was it new in the box... ie, came in a retail box with battery, USB cable and charger. Or was it a refurbished device and came with out a battery and cables.

[Q] repeat maybe...phantom keys?

I'm getting phantom keys that freeze my phones menu, home, ect. when my phone switches from 4G to 3G because of 4G signal loss. My battery isn't bloated. And I've tried going back to regular stock even but they don't go away. What could be the cause? Could it still be the battery? or is something wrong with my phone? Any help would be appreciated

The phantom menu key press is a known issue that will allow you to get your device exchanged or repaired regardless of having TEP or being in warranty or not. Bring it into a Sprint repair location and they will either replace the LCD/TSP assembly (if they have the part) or arrange for a replacement device.

Not true. They will charge at least $50 for the service. Its the deductible.

Should I go back to complete unrooted stock before I go to a sprint store to have them checked it? It would be nice to have the screen replaced or get a new phone lol

Sorry, but I work at a Sprint ASC repair center. They created an issue ID that allows for free repair or replacement of the device. Unless you are a Sprint ASC tech and use eTicket, then you obviously aren't aware of the recent addition of this policy repair/exchange.
Well, like you said, it is a recent change.

You're better off just buying an LCD as the volume keys are built into it. It's funny, a girl came in yesterday to my store with her volume down key not working. Just happened to have a spare LGOG returned damn near brand new.
I have not yet found one with the volume keys attached. And i have been looking.

are you planning to sell the whole phone, or just individual parts...becuase I could use a back cover for the LGOG if it is in good condition...
You could part it out if you want. I really only want the motherboard and the volume keys. Or maybe just the insides all together. The guts if you will.

Still looking for a parts phone. Couldn't by the guy who offereds phone. Because he couldnt use paypal. Please let me know if you have one I can buy I need the buttons. I will even take the whole phone. And pay of course.
Im still looking too. good luck to us both

I hear ya, and all I kept saying before I left was get a case incase I dropped it and I didn't, lesson learned. I'm just gonna order the screen off amazon and replace it when I get home. I attached a pic, it could have been worse but it is annoying, I've only had the phone for a week and a half.
