Has anyone had any luck replacing the stock battery with a newer one from the S23, S24, S25, or S26 series?

Someone has created a universal rooter any luck with this model?

So here’s the situation: about two months ago, I bought a plan that came with a phone. I didn’t need the device myself, so I thought it’d make a great gift for a relative overseas. Shipping wasn’t cheap, but I was so excited to see their reaction when they opened it.

Fast forward to delivery day – and my excitement quickly turned to frustration. The phone was network-locked. They messaged me over Wi-Fi to let me know they couldn’t activate it. The rage I felt in that moment… I'd imagined this wonderful surprise, and instead, they got a phone they couldn't even use as a phone.

I’ve since calmed down, but the process hasn’t been smooth. I reached out to Mint Mobile, and they opened a ticket and escalated the issue. That was 72 hours ago. In that time, I’ve received zero updates. How hard can it be to press a button and unlock a phone? They already have my proof of purchase and all the info they need. What’s the hold-up?

I even mentioned in my email that if this isn’t resolved soon, I’d be filing an FCC complaint. A supervisor promised to call me when they had an “update,” but I haven’t heard anything yet. Is there anyone with real authority who can speed this up?

UPDATE – after hours of calls and multiple supervisors:

· Spoke to 5 different supervisors and spent over 8 hours on hold total. · The first few supervisors were unhelpful – some didn’t even know how to use their own internal tools. · The 4th supervisor suggested I buy an eSIM and said they’d refund me once the phone was unlocked. · The 5th supervisor was a game-changer – he clearly explained the entire unlock process, which no one else could do. Previous reps just kept repeating the “60-day policy” without actually helping.

Here’s the real kicker: The 5th supervisor had me disable Wi-Fi calling on the website, wait 10 seconds, and then re-enable it. That allowed him and his specialist to see the device connected in their system – and they unlocked it right away.

Key takeaways:

· Level 1 agents were useless – a complete waste of time. · Specialists weren’t much better – kept insisting on a physical SIM when an eSIM was the solution. · Most supervisors lacked knowledge or refused to dig deeper. · The last two supervisors were outstanding – knowledgeable, responsive, and actually solved the problem. The final one even gave me his direct email for follow-ups. Huge respect to him.

Final thoughts: The phone is now overseas and fully unlocked – as it should have been from the start. These companies really need to stop locking phones unless they’re being financed. This entire ordeal could’ve been avoided.

Since sound is crucial now on hardcore I was wondering if anyone here has a good recommendation?

I been doing Facebook MP searches but I need the browser to open in DESKTOP MODE. 8 TABS..

Firefox Fennec Ice raven..

I've read a few topics on this but no one has found a way yet...

Since most of us probably experienced a BAD ac on a car ..

You should rent a AC kit tool from autozone.. and suck it out of the Evangelion car .. and re fill it .. diagnose it using rent tools from autozone or o reiley.. using UV light or something checking for any leaks.. just ignore my dumb ideas ..

When?

Did they fix the leaf blocking projectiles or still a thing?

What should I do wait a couple mores days or call the bank and report scam... ?
