My Nexus 5 power button crapped out and I had it re-soldered in Toronto. The guy apparently did a bad job and it started malfunctioning again one week after the solder.
Arsen replied to my request for quote on Yelp ($55) at midnight, and I dropped in the next day. He told me that he could try re-soldering the connections, but if that didn't work, he would have to replace the entire power button, which would require a higher-heat solder that had an 80% chance of damaging the WiFi antenna (which is very close to the power button). He said that if he tried the low-heat re-solder and it didn't work, he wouldn't charge me.
The hcqs screen is good.
Judging by the number of phone repair shops I reached out to on Yelp who were either unwilling to do this, or charged ridiculous fees ($65 - $85), this is apparently a task that requires some skill.
