Was doing multiple things at the time, so not sure about this—I think I restarted it but then it wouldn’t start up again. Holding down the power button didn’t help, nor did holding down the power button along with either the up or down volume for a few seconds. Plugging it in, it does make the “started charging” noise or whatever.

Would be much obliged for any suggestions on how to get this working again!

UPDATE: Well, and it just rang! Maybe the screen died . . . ?

UPDATE UPDATE: Well new friends, it looks like I’m now officially in the market for a new phone. Since I like GrapheneOS, I guess I need to buy another Pixel which hopefully won’t crap out on me after 3 years like this one has just apparently done. But which Pixel should I get? As long as it’s comparable in functionality to the 5a5g . . .

Going to go through the troubleshooting guide on iFixit on the remote chance that I can salvage this thing…
