Phone water damaged

Well if I was in this Creek near austin, where I live and I was swimming around with my phone in my pocket. But don't worry I got a lifeproof on so I thought that would be nice. But I dropped my phone and it was there (less than 6 feet but more than 5) for about 15 minutes before my friend found for me. So I cehcked to see if it worked again it was. And then I canoe to the wharf where I was forced to leave my phone in the Sun and go canoeing (summer camp thing) so I left it and when I came back an hour later he was dead. After trying to turn it on a few times (you are not supposed to do ik tthat) I removed my case and found water in some of the ports. PLEASE HELP WAT SHOULD I DO

Take it to an Apple store and they can tell you your options. First make a genius bar position. Probably they will exchange it for half price, or $99 if you bought AppleCare + when you bought the phone.

    By mistakely water spilled on my laptop HP (Pavilion G6) and now it's showing the water on the screen and looks like the screen is damaged. I immediately turn off and have no check yet so I don't know other things work correctly or not.

  • My Iwatch is synchronized with an Iphone which contained the water damage, and I had to replace my phone. Can I recover my photos of my Iwatch?

    My Iwatch is synchronized with an Iphone which contained the water damage, and I had to replace my phone. Can I recover my photos of my Iwatch?

    Hello

    No - you can't retrieve pictures directly from your watch. However, you can add your replacement iPhone.

    Apple Watch stores the photos in an album photo sync on your iPhone. By default, it's on your album of Favorites (the photos that you have marked as Favorites). The photos may not be synchronized / extra back to your new iPhone to your watch - synchronization only works on the other hand.

    To keep the same pictures on your watch once it is paired with your replacement iPhone, you must add these same photos to the iPhone. You may be able to do this by restoring a recent backup of your iPhone:

    - Restore your device from an iCloud or iTunes backup - Apple Support

    Once the pictures are on your iPhone, select the album to synchronize with your watch:

    -On your iPhone, in the application of Eve, go to: My Watch (low left tab) > Photos > synced Album > selects an album > allow them to synchronize after changing the albums.

  • IPhone 6 s water damage, the phone turns on, is the battery just fried?

    My phone got wet almost a hot tub... was not at all.  Tekdry working on it, so its dry and did not work during a day.  Now its finally works when it is plugged in, but used to hold a charge and seems to be stuck in recovery mode.  IM more than sure that it must just be the battery.  In any case, she takes in the Genius bar, unfriendly guy told me they would not replace battery water damage indicators show?  Why wouldn't they just allow me to pay for a replacement of the battery?  I know it may or may not work and of course my phone is out of warranty damage, if Im not looking to blame future maybe problems on Apple.  Just shocked I couldn't give them $90 to a new phone?  Is this a common practice?  They said that they would only replace whole phone for $299... Please help or give advice, thank you!

    Yes, it's standard. Your only option with Apple will be to pay for a full out-of-warranty replacement device.  The costs for this in the USA are $ 299 for which you get a refurbished device to factory OEM with a 90 day warranty.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones water damaged phone has bad signal

    My 9790 "BOLD" age of 6 months of BB washed. I had fixed and everything worked perfectly, except for the bad signal (most of the non-existent time)! I never had problems before water damage. Now I have to put my phone on specific points, the specific angles and then only, it will pick up signal with maximum 3 stripes. If anyone phones, I can't talk to them, cause now I pick up the phone, the signal goes into SOS mode or network research. I brought back to the guy who fixed it, and it replaced the ariel, without success. Any other suggestions? I still have the contract of 15 months left!

    Physical repairs are problematic, especially on a device that has been damaged by water, you never know if indeed you have solved all the problems caused by moisture or water. And dried water in a device may leave behind the salts and minerals on the circuit, which can cause problems six months later and are not detectable today.

    You might be better to start with a new device.

  • IPhone 6 s life after water damage

    So my iPhone 6s fell in the tub (I still feel stupid) and after doing all the steps and put it in the rice that I tried to open it a thirty hours after I put it in rice. The phone open, fortunately, but I noticed that it took a little longer to power and power off. He also had a bright diagonal stripe on the screen which I guess was the water so I put back it in the rice therapy. Anyway, my main question is, is the power on and put off the power of the issue or the problem of screen I mentioned something I have to worry?

    You should worry about corrosion. Unfortunately, the iPhone is not waterproof. You're lucky if it still works after contact with water. Usually, phones and water do not mix, and water damage are not covered by the warranty. Corrosion has already begun.  You must schedule an appointment of genius at the Apple Store

    to assess the level of damages. They will offer you the best solution.

  • [URGENT!] I can't access my iPhone 5 because of water damage!

    Hello, guys. HM, the story of how this happened is quite simple, I have obviously dropped my phone in the filled bathtub (whose water happened to contain bathbombs, foam, and other products). I pulled it out immediately and it worked perfectly fine, but the water display under which had left some unpleasant spots white and gray. I left my phone in the day rice overnight. I woke up for not much of a change, only a few pixels were dry air inside the huge waste of water. so, I decided several things, like rebooting, drying with AC, with a hair dryer, with a small pump I use to clean my DSLR lenses and nothing has worked, BUT my frozen screen. I can't type in any way to get a reaction and some scratches appear but fade quickly. I read that you have to reboot, so I did it, but now I can't access it because it asks for my password and I can't type. I really want to at least return it upward but iTunes or other software will not recognize it because it is locked. I don't really want to take it to the service. Any advice on how I can unlock unlock/dry/she? Ah, the buttons of my home and lock work perfectly well. Thank you!

    You can not.  Your screen is obviously of water damaged and without screen tactile operation you really can't do anything with it until you have repaired or replaced.  No trouble reset or magic software is going to fix the damaged material.

    You can't back up in iTunes now, there is no way to do it without functional touch screen.  If you had backups iCloud activated before that, then you should have a backup in place you will be able to restore from.  Yet once again, if you had not already activated your backup, there no way to do it now.

    A backup is only useful if its done before a disaster occurs.  Once your material is damaged, your ability to implement damage control are limited or non-existent.

    Take it to Apple for a free assessment of the damage and they can explain your options.  Most likely, an output device warranty replacement will be required.  And without a backup already in place, Yes, you go to floating content.

  • water damaged iphone memory are accessible by others?

    So I found a place that is ready to buy my water damaged iphone 5s, problem is that they want remove me device from my icloud account and I'm not sure and didn't quite stupidly asking why they need me to do, so I am wondering here if they are able to access my memory of the iphone. I tried to connect my phone to my PC, which says that the device is discoverable but not readable, but when I used 'Wondershare Dr.Fone' it allowed me to get my data through Itunes backup file recovery. Which brings me to my assumption that if this software can access memory from my broken iphone, it means that other people can also? If so, how can I completely wipe my phone memory?

    Sea water is corrosive. It is doubtful that the phone still works.  If you are concerned about this topic, then do not sell.

  • IPhone 6 s water damaged more

    I recently damaged my iPhone more 6s due to water damage and I just got my replacement phone - another iPhone 6 s more.  However, I have to return my iPhone damaged by water, but it ends destroyed, it does not, etc. Instructions ask that I erase all the contents of my previous phone before returning, but how do I do that if I can't turn it on. I did remove my old SIM card and put it in my new iPhone 6 s more, is that enough?  I already located towards the top/restored my iPhone more than 6 s and I removed my old iPhone 6s than "find my iPhone". Disconnected from 'Find my iPhone' there is a selection that says once the phone is connected to the internet it would erase content and I chose, in the hope that it would remove any remaining info I have on the phone after removing the SIM card, if the phone is never repaired and returned to new. Thank you for your help.

    As long as you remove the device to locate my iPhone, you did what is necessary.  If Apple has problems, they will contact you.

  • How to fix an iPhone 6 water damaged?

    My iPhone 6 recently fell into the toilet clear-watered and I automatically took and cut the power, I then took down to the it Department in my college and had a technician shake all the water and remove my hard case to dry everywhere for me, but also to remove the SIM card. From there, I kept it out and about two hours later, obtained a bag of white rice to the kitchen of the College to put my i6, before putting it in my friend tried to turn it on and managed also, only the apple symbol pops up on the screen and it wouldn't really lights up, it is the latest sign that I saw him working. I went to repair an electronics store downtown, but the guy gave me a call recently and said all hope is lost for her. I am extremely disappointed by Apple at this time and I refuse to think that my iPhone 6 is burned because I saw many people fix on YouTube by soaked in alcohol, or something! I'm not sure what the seller of electronics, but I feel like I'm sure he didn't do much to revive. Please tell me that all hope is not lost, and how do I manage to fix it. I've been a very loyal customer to Apple and always highly recommend it to other people, but if my iPhone 6 is simply grilled on a 1 second fall-in with the toilet, I'll be sure to cut my short loyalty and express my very negative experience with others. The iPhone 6 is very expensive and should not have such abilities of poor water/water waterproof resistance of the water.

    Blame you Apple to drop your phone in the water? Are you serious?

    Even if the phone is quite expensive, it IS NOT impermeable to water, is not allowed to survive water damage. This is clearly stated everywhere where it is possible.

    If you need a phone that is sustainable water, you should look for one of the specific models that have these capabilities and which are certified and tested to be waterproof to the water.

    You can only hope for the best and maybe leave a feature request for Apple at the link.

  • A lot of problems with the battery after water damage

    Hello! I dropped my iPhone 16 5s in toilets and pay a repair man local £30 to repair rather than £205 from Apple.

    He managed to get the phone to run, but now I have the following problem:

    1. phone overheating and tells me to cool before I can use it.

    2. in the use of the app from tesco to run errands the other day, he went to blue screen and restarted on every 5 minutes.

    3. the witness of the life of battery does not work and if you re - start, he recorded a good level.

    4. all supported, he constantly re-boots.

    Help, please.

    This time, take it to Apple and pay what it costs.  Water damage to a phone apparently can leave dry on minerals on the contacts so that a simple drying will not work unless your technician who knows really what to do. the only problem is that if the phone was opened by a third party, that apple may bother on considering watch.

  • Indicator 6 water damage iPhone blushed

    my iPhone 6a is accidentally fell in the toilet yesterday and my pocket. I had placed my phone in a sealed plastic bag with rice and Silicon gel. However, I also discovered that the water damage indicator has become red/pink. What should I do? Should I still wait to load my phone a few days later?

    Betty,

    as far as I know that the water damage indicator will stay red in the future. It does not show that your phone is still wet, but the phone was in contact with the water.

    If you have kept your iPhone in the bag plastic with rice and Silicon gel for a few days, you can try if it works always. But perhaps the water already destroyed.

    If this does not at all or behaving strangely, you must go to an Apple Store.
