St Vincent DePaul in your city can help you.

I've been to many religious places and they've been very helpful. But this is more of a phone issue... I just want my phone back. I don't want a new phone... I've never heard of this ever happening ever.

You keep saying how important your files are but you need to have them backed up in a cloud. Your life cannot end because you wake up one morning and your phone stops booting.

Man, what a terrible reply.

Because of this,

>you need to have them backed up in a cloud

and also this,

>Your life cannot end because you wake up one morning and your phone stops booting.

What if it does? Edge cases exist, whenever you fall through the cracks in the future remember your attitude here.

Well excuse me but a few people offered real solutions including free devices. Nope this guy wants his google pixel with 3 hours of battery life (lol) back.

[moralestapia]

I'm sure (I hope) you have enough mental ability to understand what I'm conveying there.

The files aren't the only issues, it's that now I have to buy a new phone for no reason. It was working perfectly. I can't even buy a used Pixel 4a as all the phones now have the update of death.

Dude you need a new phone

And yeah that sucks but guess what. Back up your data.

And it won't happen again

I am backing up data, or trying my best to. It's just now I have to buy a new phone because Google can't help me even though they said they would. I don't keep everything on the cloud, not something I trust.
