No different? Outside of the fact boiling on stove top leaves somethign hot. Boiling something in microwave it rapidly cools.

Cooking = heat + time.

The msg I replied to says (verbatim) “Battery it was.” After going on how the combination wouldn’t fix it. Just giving additional information. Thanks for clarity.

I bet at one point she had a device that had a battery that would barely hold a charge for good length of time. It completely changed her phone charging habits. A cruel tech failure has forever changed her! Oh the humanityy ... I was that person, it took a lot of rehab and rehabilitation. Stick with her, there is hope!

Hmm... The combination turns my phone off and restarts the boot sequence going straight to a sort of BIOS menu before any loading. That shouldve fixed the freeze at splash screen problem. And if it didn’t, I have no idea how that is battery fail.

Can’t argue with none of that.

That would be great if replaceable batteries became the norm, I can take em or leave em. Kind of like water proofing for you (I only had one phone die to water, and it was me jumping in a pool after someone else’s phone with it in my pocket) and me.

I understand you fully.

The S5 my mom has is USB mini. Not USB C

You know every single phone I have ever owned has a hard reset “combination” to use for that situation.

They are plugging their phone in when at 50% and/or unplugging them before they get to 100%.

Pro battery maintenance tip: never charge phone unless 0% life, never unplug phone unless it says 100%.

Or $1.30 off Amazon... What I did for my mom’s 10 year old Motto Krazr. I got two of em in case they were cheap PoS... Nope they were great!

Android Turbo 2. Unbreakable screen. I have the 2013 Android Maxx, which doesn’t advertise unbreakable screen, this thing has been dropped so many times. Hard tile floors, cement driveways, a full flight of steps.

The S5 has removable battery AND water resistant... The back cover has a gasket type o-ring thing that keeps water out of the sensitive parts.

The S5 had both water resistance and removable battery.

Will “anyone” take it. Sure. Thousands of people would love to take care of your SNES, even buy it off of you. Will any big company take it? Probably not. GameStop started taking retro games, not sure if that is all location, or still going on. As I haven’t been inside a GameStop since 2007.

Expect to pay as much and probably more for each game you want to play.

Yeah, let’s give the creators their licenses back. Some of which aren’t even in the games industry any more... That way not a single game in said series will ever be made!

Sydney is the city. It is like saying New York state is clear of snakes and spiders and other forest things when you only live in NYC. The state is pretty back woodsy in some parts. And I’m sure Australia’s “upstate” is even more back woodsy.
