So my nexus 4 finally died, touchscreen went haywire. I think i can see the screen coming away from the glass internally around where the problem area seems to be :rip:

Posting from a friend's discarded nexus 5 which seems to have random microphone doesn't work during calls issues. And you all have me so confused now about what i should buy as a replacement

buy a used nexus 4 (preferably one that's bootlooped or something for cheap) and swap the motherboard out. it's not hard to do; I did the swap the one time I dropped mine and broke the screen

Is there data service on the iPhone that is similar to how Google Fi works on Android? Because that's a pretty good deal as it includes data in (most) of the rest of the world and I never pay more than $30/month

no lol

you know we rightly poo poo on dyp here and the android thread in particular but if you want the absolute worst of dyp you really cant beat the cutting cable thread

its got everything the android thread has and more. so much min/maxing along with favorites like convoluted solutions to nonproblems in the search to save $5/month and endless ENDLESS problems with their cobbled together "solution". everyone changes service every few months in search of a working solution to the problem of spending money

i legitimately feel sorry for any spouses or children who have to put up with the mental illness presented itt its like look i know cable or satellite is expensive but if you care this much about tv it works and does so flawlessly just loving pay the money your wife doesnt want to have to try five different platforms to put on the british bake off you rear end

i watch maybe two hours of tv a month and the only thing that thread told me is dont cut cable

have they tried not watching tv

eh, the USB floppy drive is presumably acting as a mass storage device.

iOS would work the same if you plugged onto into the camera adaptor.
