Well, IDK how it's useful for home automation, if it doesn't have a screen... Perhaps you mean as a server, not a client, but even so, that requires a lot of hardware and skill I don't have. :P Also, seeing as I don't have a car, only a bike, it wouldn't be particularly useful for tracking a stolen vehicle, even if the GPS was working.<br>
<br>About the only thing I can think of that it would be useful to me for is to trade it in for an A7 (or at least something with a buzzfix) with a working screen, and get a huge discount for it. I have no idea if that's feasible, but my gut says no.<br>
<br>Now, if anyone wants to sell me a screen, I'm very interested. It would be fun to try to repair it, although probabilistically speaking I would be more likely to break every component in the phone that does work, including the new screen, when I tried to replace it... Nevertheless, it's worth a shot. But for now, that's a dead end unless I can find a touchscreen that fits in it.<br>
