Well, two years and almost three months later, my G3 has unceremoniously bit the dust. It will not stay on for more than a few minutes, and even getting it past the splash screen requires a lot (10-15) of battery pulls and more than a few beatings. Something internally is dead, because it won't even stay in download mode for more than a few seconds before turning off again.
I am now reduced to a seven year old dumbphone, the name of which isn't even worth mentioning here. My Pixel XL was ordered December 20, but demand is so high + Google/HTC's supply is so low, that it hasn't been shipped yet. It's supposed to be here in about a week.....but it was supposed to be here January 20th, so I'm not getting my hopes up. On the plus side Verizon has offered me a free Daydream View for my annoyance, so that's good.
Anyway, RIP G3, you were a good phone. I had hoped to give you to my kid, but it's not to be. Enjoy the great smartphone recycling center in the sky.
