Reviving a Water-Damaged Phone: Step-by-Step Guide to Swift Recovery

How to fix a water damaged phone, but prompt action can often save your phone from irreversible harm. Follow these steps to increase the chances of restoring your waterlogged phone to full functionality.

Step 1: Act Fast

Time is of the essence. The longer your phone stays submerged, the higher the likelihood of severe damage. Retrieve it from the water as quickly as possible.

Step 2: Power Off Immediately

Hold down the power button and turn off your phone. Avoid pressing any other buttons or trying to charge the device. This minimizes the risk of short circuits.

Step 3: Remove the Battery (if possible)

If your phone has a removable battery, take it out. This prevents any electrical flow and reduces the risk of shorting the circuits.

Step 4: Disassemble (if you're comfortable)

If you're familiar with your phone's internals and have the necessary tools, disassembling it can allow for better drying. Remove the SIM card, memory card, and any other removable components.

Step 5: Dry the Exterior

Use a lint-free cloth or paper towel to gently pat the outside of the phone. Be careful not to spread the water around.

Step 6: Shake Out Excess Water

Hold the phone with the ports facing down and give it a gentle shake to help remove any trapped water.

Step 7: Utilize a Desiccant

Place your phone and its disassembled components in a container filled with desiccant packets, like those found in packaging or purchased separately. Rice, silica gel, or instant oatmeal can also serve as desiccants.

Step 8: Keep in a Dry Environment

Seal the container with the desiccant packets and leave it in a dry place for at least 24-48 hours. This allows the desiccants to absorb any remaining moisture.

Step 9: Try a Vacuum Bag

If you don't have access to desiccants, you can try placing your phone in a vacuum-sealed bag with a few silica gel packets. The vacuum can help draw out moisture.

Step 10: Test the Phone

After a day or two, reassemble your phone, insert the battery, and power it on. Check for any signs of normal operation.

Step 11: Seek Professional Help

If your phone doesn't turn on or exhibits unusual behavior, consider taking it to a professional repair service. They have specialized equipment and expertise to diagnose and fix water damage.

Important Tips:

Avoid Heat Sources: Don't use a hair dryer, oven, or microwave to dry your phone. Excessive heat can cause further damage.

Don't Shake or Tap Vigorously: This can force water deeper into the device.

Avoid Freezing: Some suggest freezing a water-damaged phone, but this can cause more harm than good.

Preventative Measures: Consider investing in a waterproof phone case or pouch for future protection.

Conclusion: Salvaging Your Water-Damaged Phone

Swift action and a systematic approach can often save a water-damaged phone. However, it's essential to be cautious and patient throughout the process. If your phone doesn't recover, consult a professional technician who can assess and repair any potential damage. Remember, prevention is key, so take proactive measures to protect your phone from future water exposure.

Always worried about dropping your Smartphone while taking a selfie? But now taking a selfie could soon be less risky, states specialist glass maker Corning.

Corning has launched its next generation of Gorilla Glass. The stuff used in more than 70 percent of smartphone screens, including on Samsung and Apple mobile devices. Gorilla Glass 5 could sustain more than 80 percent of drops from as high as 1.6 meters.

Smashed or cracked screens are the main problem of Smartphone servicing and customer complaints globally.

The new glass has experimented on rough surfaces, a demo for journalists presented dummy phones being dropped from a height of 1.6 meters onto a layer of sandpaper.

Some of the phones tested sustained over 20 hard drops in the lab.  Most phone falls are from between waist and shoulder height.

As well as falls, the company said it was twice at good at resisting scratches and other damage analyzes to what’s currently on the market. Device manufacturers are anticipated to unveil products with the new glass within the next few months.

MELTING POT

Corning’s vice president and general manager John Bayne told the BBC, ‘We’ve been working with our closest customers for some time now, and there’s huge interest in this product for obvious reasons.’

However, he suggested that Corning had no control over future Smartphone designs. Some designs could be slightly weaker depending on the manufacturer and models of the device. Corning’s statistics were based preferably on controlled lab conditions. The company would not let the BBC experiment the glass outside of the lab.

Corning’s work in specialist glass dates back to 1879 when it designed the glass used in the iconic Edison light bulb.

By 2016, more than 4.5 billion devices use Gorilla Glass, which is produced using a technique known as fusion forming. It requires placing the raw materials, sand and other inorganic material, which is not specified into a melting pot.

It is then transferred to an isopipe, basically a small trough, which is intentionally over-filled. The melted material spills out over both sides and blends underneath to form the layer of glass.

This technique means there is no human contact required in creating the glass, reducing defects and removing the requirement to treat the glass afterward.
