[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SMARTPHONEPC:
I meant to post back earlier but I've been busier than expected & I also wanted to get over the honeymoon period for my new battery.

Saturday July 15th I took my Nexus 6P back after getting the call that the battery was available again at https://www.ubreakifix.com/locations for a succesful battery replacement in about 30 min. For Canada-Toronto see https://www.ubreakifix.com/ca/locations

https://www.ubreakifix.com/repairs lists "All parts and labor that we provide are covered by a 90-day warranty. If your repaired device seems to be having issues after a repair, please visit uBreakiFix right away for warranty diagnostics. We will be happy to diagnose and replace any defective parts that were used during the original repair. Please keep in mind that the warranty does not cover physical damage (such as broken screen) or water damage done to the device after the initial repair."

Maybe I got lucky as the store manager installed my new battery who said he had changed the Nexus 6P battery about 10x but he was honest enough to admit to me that he once broke the camera glass so he subsequently would use more heat to loosen its adhesive glue more.

I did ask to see the replacement battery which was a Huawei & also asked to see the original battery to witness its swelling which was as evident as removable batteries that I've replaced in other smartphones before I would swap them out more regularly. I would have taken photos but that Saturday was busy & I wanted to make sure it got done that day. He said he would check the old & new battery with a hardware meter rather than software like AccuBattery including if I came back within the 90 day warranty period with any unexpected battery issues.

I warned him about the display cable under the battery most visible on the right side brought up at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zEQbQPAU9Ss comments section to which he said he goes in mostly on the left side of the glued down original battery.

Once the new battery was installed, I uninstalled the prior AccuBattery install & then reinstalled it so its old data wouldn't skew the new battery data. AccuBattery recognized the new 6P battery with its 3450 mAh capacity quickly listing an initial estimated 5hr Screen On Time, 24 hr Screen Off Time, 18h Combined use along with during the initial charge statistics like:

"Charging from 0% to 56% costs 0.09 cycles in wear. This extend your battery lifespan by 504% compared to using full charges only"

"Charging from 0% to 66% costs 0.12 cycles in wear. This extend your battery lifespan by 451% compared to using full charges only"

"Charging from 0% to 74% costs 0.18 cycles in wear. This extend your battery lifespan by 313% compared to using full charges only"

"Charging from 0% to 80% costs 0.26 cycles in wear. This extend your battery lifespan by 211% compared to using full charges only"

"Charging from 0% to 88% costs 0.42 cycles in wear. This extend your battery lifespan by 111% compared to using full charges only"

"Charging from 0% to 95% costs 0.66 cycles in wear. This extend your battery lifespan by 44% compared to using full charges only"

"Charging from 0% to 99% costs 0.90 cycles in wear. This extend your battery lifespan by 10% compared to using full charges only"

I let my 6P with its new battery get down to 1% (previously would shut down anywhere from 15%-45% not getting into single digits like when my 6P was new) before plugging it in charging it to 100% when the battery health in AccuBattery first listed 96% but I didn't unplug as I was curious if the battery health & capacity would soon list 100% which it did but since I'd heard of reports of battery health-capacity above 100% I let its battery health-capacity get to 102% before unplugging it to minimize any potential battery calibration issue/noticed temp increase.

My battery health currently still lists 102% Estimated capacity 3,522 mAh Based on 30 sessions with 1,609% charged for 56,640 mAh total but Screen On Time is listed closer to 4 hours which is obviously better than the 1.5 hr original battery it replaced but I still strongly favor user removable batteries & may buy an LG V20 if the LG V30, Samsung Note 8, Pixel 2 XL all prove within the next 5 weeks to have enclosed non-removable batteries.. While manufacturers benefit from the rapid obsolescence of degrading enclosed batteries & my https://www.ubreakifix.com/locations experience was good, I'd still like the ability to swap batteries at will.

BTW, I continue experimenting charging to less than 100% but I'm not seeing that as practical for me personally based on its battery size & my potential daily SOT although I no longer let it charge past 100% overnight-try to shut it down when I can which is not impossible for me since I have so many other devices.

I'm no gratitude ho but if this post is of any interest/help, click thanks.:highfive:
