    I'm going to fix my Pixel 5 myself. I'd rather not pay the $300 at the closest phone repair place. Because of you, I know how to fix it for way less than that!

    That’s crazy man! Almost the same path I’m on right now, I was 16 and didn’t like my truck headlights so i changed them, which lead me down the rabbit hole of buying aftermarket parts. Made me realize how much I loved them, now I’m going to school for automotive management! I love how others have this common passion for repair.

    I got into tech when I was 8 and I broke my iPod touch 4 screen. I also bought a screen off eBay and did the repair myself and also did my mothers iPod touch 4 screen. Then I started building PC’s when I was 11. 6 years later I’ve built many PC’s and spent a total of 16k on tech. Most recently 5.5k of that was on a ASIC for bitcoin mining and I’m making good money on that

    Dude! Same thing happened to me! I broke my iPhone 7 screen and selfie camera and figured I’d save some money so I bought a screen and selfie cam from Amazon to fix it myself. The screen I bought turned out to be defective and I ended up fixing the selfie cam but breaking the home button. After that I decided to just get a new phone (iPhone se 2nd gen) because the 7 battery life was terrible and it constantly overheated. I haven’t fixed anyone’s phone yet but I have done a ps4 repair.

    I’m currently on the beginning of the path. My friend has an iPhone 6 that is no longer turning on, but he has gotten a new phone since then so I’m going to give it to my sister. I removed the battery and accidentally broke the connection but I plugged it in and the lcd lit up, there was an apple logo and some lines (there was no signal at all before opening the phone, it only gave power after I removed the battery and tinkered with the screen a bit). I uploaded 2 shorts on it so y’all can see but I might do fixing phones 4 cheep as a side hustle at some point

    I love this. I actually broke my 6 also, used a water damaged iPhone screen by accident in 2016 (long story), messed up the whole phone. Took it to a repair shop, & they told me for a first timer I did good screen swapwise. Told me to not give up and try again, so I did. I can fix all iphones now but want to learn other phones and laptops now as well!
