   > third party replacement done (and kill your warranty) Just a reminder to everyone in the U.S., it is illegal for a company to revoke an item's warranty if you open it up, have a third party fix it, etc. It's the exact same l

   I trust spy agencies far more than elected officials. Those employees get vetted, elected officials don't (and they most likely lie to get elected as well).

   I got my N5X working long enough to copy off the pictures by disassembling it and using a heat gun. Some people have used their kitchen ovens and supposedly permanently fixed it.

   I remember that debacle. I suppose there is a parallel, but with the Pixel 5, it still is very usable with almost zero adjustment, nothing convoluted like changing how you hold an iPhone to avoid shorting the antenna.

    I am interested in researching it online, but what search terms should I use? I've never heard of this before. Thank you.
