    I have a broken phone with failed glue lying around. Might be a fun weekend project. Is it still destruction of property if you tell them beforehand that your phone will fry their device?

    Edit: Well, not fully broken, but the parts to fix it properly cost more than the device. Even though it has a midrange snapdragon and 12 gigs of ram, 256 gigs of storage. Might try to find out whether there’s any way to connect the board to a generic screen, but I’d wager there isn’t. Really love the mobile device market.

    Edit edit: We’re getting really off-topic now, but looks like that board used a MIPI DSI connector, I think? Seems like it is standardised enough that it might be possible to source a generic screen and use it kinda like a sbc? Getting that to work might be the actual fun weekend project hiding here.
