Happened to me awhile back with a Note 4. Changed battery and works like a champ ever since.
How long have you had the phone? I realized the same thing after I ordered mine and contacted Google about it. They told me since I was still within the 30 days or whatever it was that I could return it, to simply send the phone back, order a new one and add Nexus Protect. I am guessing you are probably past that time frame though?
I am not, but that sounds like a pain in the ass. I think I am just going to try not to break it and hope to save $90.
It was actually incredibly easy. I just ordered another one, and then when it arrived I used that box to ship it back. Had it credited back to my card within a week of me shipping it out.
Working for Motorola starting around the 2005 time frame things started getting really depressing really fast. I wasn't on the cellular / mobile side of the business which was good and bad. Bad in that all the money they were hemorrhaging impacted every other business unit and there were constant concerns of layoffs, restructures, lack of a consistent leadership structure, etc... Going from a company of 70 - 80,000 people worldwide down to like 15,000 or less at times was crazy. Seemed like every week a new section was being spun off and sold or let go. But being in a profitable business on the plus side did provide some stability. The whole change from the Galvin family to Greg Xander and through Greg Brown / Sanjay Jha, then the split to Google and separation in to two completely independent companies, but hardly anyone knew that, and still tons of money paid back to them to keep using the Motorola name.
