A water-damaged phone isn’t necessarily a lost cause. Quick thinking and proper care can help get your wet phone back online. Review these mobile phone repair tips after your phone takes a dip.
- Disconnect The Battery: The first step in saving your water damaged phone is to remove the battery. Any power flowing through phone components could short-circuit the device. Likewise, you should avoid plugging in a previously submerged phone. You may be tempted to see if your phone still works, but your wall charger is likely to short (and permanently damage) the entire device. Once the battery has been removed, dry off both the battery and phone exterior with a cloth towel.
- Blow Away Moisture: Once your phone is no longer in danger of electrical damage, begin removing moisture. A can of compressed air is the most effective tool for this task. Act fast. Hopefully, you can push moisture out of your phone before it has a chance to cause any damage. A vacuum cleaner can serve the same purpose if compressed air is not readily available. However, do not use a hair dryer for this task. The heat created by hair dryers is more than enough to burn out phone components.
- Dry The Phone: You can remove more water from your phone through the use of a desiccant. These solid materials readily absorb moisture and can be used to save your phone. Dry rice, a natural desiccant, is also one of the most readily available. Simply submerge your phone and its battery in a bowl of dry rice. Let your phone sit overnight and check it in the morning.
Don’t lose hope if these strategies are ineffective. Instead, trust the assistance of phone repair specialists. The expert technicians at Quick EZ Repairs are a great resource for water damaged phones. Arlington and Plano residents can call us at (214) 919-7014 for directions.
