Fixing my LG Nexus 4 phone

Posted August 16, 2014

A few days ago, I accidentally dropped my phone on concrete and the display shattered. The touch screen did not work anymore but the rest of the phone worked fine, so I ordered a replacement screen from Fixez.com and followed their video guide.

Now, my phone works again and its battery life greatly improved because I used this opportunity to also replace my old battery with a new one.
