Google's third-generation Pixel-branded smartphone, and their first "notched" phone. Comes with a 6.3" QHD+ OLED display and 64 or 128 GB of storage. Available in Nearly White, Just Black, or Not Pink.
Changing my battery due to the phone overheating and I noticed the insulation tape was torn. I cannot seem to find a replacement part for this anywhere. Can anybody point me in the direction of the part or a workaround to fix it?
I wouldn't worry too much about this tape as it docent appear to be connecting to anything,heres what I would do!
try your best to straighten it out and get some non-conductive tape such as sellotape or electricians tape to put on top any that should fix your issue the best I can be fixed as I don't know of anywhere that would sell you a custom cut piece of this type of tape.
This is what I was thinking of doing but had one thing holding me back. That insulation tape seems to be connecting to a heat sink from the battery to keep the board cool. Will electrical tape be able to transfer the heat from the battery to that heat sink?
I don’t think it would matter too much as tape is horrible for transferring heat(that sort of thing wouldn’t make a difference in a cooling system)when its that thin,I think the tape is more just part of the manufacturing process rather than a essential part of the phone so the electrical tap will do just fine:-)
I tried using some metal foil tape, thinking it would conduct heat better, but now my GPS isn't working. I think the foil is shielding, reflecting, or otherwise interfering with GPS satellite signals. So don't use metal tape!
