I had the broken hinge (ungluing) problem. Did my research here and ended up getting the repair kit from sentecheas on eBay. It’s the original designer, not the knock off copies. I’ve had the repair done for 2 months, use my GF about 3-4x week and it’s holding up great! Can’t say enough about this part. Go for it! Easy instructions and everything included.

Thanks! Haven’t needed it so far, but I’ll keep this in mind.

Op was light on details:
- $149
- Metal bracket that wraps glass
I wonder if it’s more secure than the standard $5 epoxy fix?
I wonder if the bracket adds height to the rear of the glass and thus affects lid camera accuracy? Maybe a calibration can correct for it.
I wonder if the bracket stresses the edge of the tempered glass? Generally that’s how tempered can shatter.
It’s interesting. Pricey and a bit of unknown, but it’s encouraging that OP has has good results.
@geek2nurse and @timjedwards might be interested

This sentecheas bracket was first mentioned almost exactly 2 years ago, so presumably some folks have had it on for a year plus without an additional break I don’t think the creator is on here though.
