Welp, it happened

Loving it. I love my Nexus 6. Too much? Possibly.
But not enough to overextend the battery.
Mine swelled up.
Asked for a replacement. I hope my carrier's warranty replacement program is really strict.
Kinda glad though, cause I kinda screwed up the phone software-wise XD
Here's to them hoping that a 16-year-old like me doesn't know how to unlock bootloader, flash images, etc
If they ask, I'll just say I didn't plug it into the computer; I left it alone.
We'll see

An internal code will tell them what you did.

highly doubt your average carrier service agent knows how to/actually does that

TacoKingYo will find out.

I'm going to go with bold here, just because I hope it's true. I did look at some of their job openings online, and they have positions that require fairly qualified personnel, but I hope that those people won't check my phone out

What exactly causes a devices battery to sell up? I've never heard of that before lol

Do all lithium ions eventually do that or something? Or is this a just common Nexus 6 problem?
