This guide will instruct you how to replace the motherboard cushions of an LG Chocolate 3 Flip-phone (LG VX8560). There are no special skills required for this project, but be prepared to handle small screws and parts of the phone.
The motherboard is the “heart” of the phone. It connects all other parts of the phone together that help perform tasks. The cushions are what keep the motherboard separate from other parts of the phone, that way it does not get scratched or damaged.
Before beginning, make sure to power off your device.
