Contact Pic Linkimator will *never* ask for your social media logins. This means if you want to import your full list of friend links from your social media accounts; you will need to copy out the username list from your friend list pages and paste them into the app. Don't worry! It's easy!

Procedure used for working around Nexus 5X bootloop issue

Just documenting my own experiences in restoring my Nexus 5X back from bootlooping state.

Remember:

  • This is only an account of what I did to get my 5X working operational again.
  • YMMV if you decide to try the steps below on your bootlooping device.
