I emailed Purism support about it (with a link to this thread) but they never replied. I think I emailed after about 2 weeks on Friday asking if they got my email 2 weeks before, and this spawned some computer generated email that they have a gitlab ticket about my concern or whatever. So, it’s not really hesitance on my part but rather the current challenges with support recruiting, etc.
I agree, thanks guys. I’m still using my phone every day even after this issue, with the knowledge that it seemed to only happen one time. I think it happened close to when I obtained a 3D printed nylon backplate for the phone to help remove and add the back more often for daily battery swapping. How big are the inner parts of the switch? Could they have been busted by nylon dust?
Anyway so far the issue seems like a mysterious 1 time fluke ever since I switched the WiFi switch back and in so doing cause the issue to disappear. But the Librem 5’s are often the phones of the cheesed off people, and so I come away from today’s tech with the sense that some level of paranoia is likely fine.
