It's better than buying a new cable and it works!

And to anyone with an android, Laugh hysterically while staring at your friend desperately trying to put on a spring onto the cable.

Can confirm this actually works and isn't as difficult to do as one might assume

No guys I did this and the spring is what cut and broke the cable.

How the fuck do you get the spring on the cable?

This is a bad idea don't do it. I do it with mine and it was extremely hard to put on and tore up the covering on my cable and just let the wires hang out.
