Where can I purchase an antenna for the VX5200 from Verizon

I was told that my antenna on my Verizon LG VX5200 may be bad due to dropping it over the years. I was looking to replace the antenna instead of purchasing a new phone. Any information on if I am able to purchase an antenna or does it have to be sent back to the manufacturer. Thank you for your time.

Oh ok, Thanks for explaining why i should look for one with a bad ESN, free or reasonably priced is always good and i was just thinking it would be nice to have one for parts. You have been a tremendous help. :)

It may not be a bad antenna, but rather loose from being dropped. Your best bet is to at least open it and check the antenna connection before buying parts phones for it. If it helps you don't need the parts phone. If not, you’ll probably need the parts phone.

Also, twist the external antenna and see if it helps. Sometimes these come loose. If not, open the phone.

If this doesn't help you won't find parts on their own for this phone. You need a parts phone. In this case, go for a phone with a bad ESN (aka blacklisted) and pull it from that. The reason for this is these are dirt cheap phones since the bad ESN stains it so badly it’s dead end outside of parts, so they’re bordering on free to cheap if you go that route. Just remember to trash the motherboard because you have no way to use it.
