I enjoyed this thread immensely, bunch of old people talking about "cell phones". (I fall into the old guy catagory by the way). A few notes -
1. Most of this stuff is highly dependent on the phone you have.
2. Not all phones can use a wireless charger, even recent advanced phones.
3. Magnetic chargers are even more rare.
4. Most phones charge a lot faster on wired chargers than wireless, again, dependent on the phone.
5. How dirty do your pants have to be for this to happen? OMG!
6. It is doubtfull that you are going to hurt the phone with alchohol or copressed are. I like the paperclip idea the best.

Question for the OP - does the guy you recommended do screen repairs and battery replacements? Is he a Samsung or Google authorized dealer? Just wondering - thanks so much for sharing.
