Chosen Solution HDMI cable is detatchable, per your cromecast 2015 teardown. Anyone know where to obtain a replacement cable ? OR, anyone have success repairing HDMI CABLE ? thanks… You can disassemble the cable end (cast end) further. However, you’ll be dealing with microsoldering and know pinouts to do much. There is also glue covering the solder surface - applied after soldering. Here a picture of one I had the cable yanked almost out of: https://drive....

Chosen Solution The specs for this phone indicate it has a “radio”. Now, don’t know if their indicating that is has ‘radio" for Bluetooth or if it’s just FM receivable.

The stress will disrupt the passive metal oxide layers, leading to a deformation of plastic that not only creates local heating but also increases the adhesive attraction....
