http://androidforums.com – Not too sure how to work this site yet so I apologize if this is in the wrong place. Yesterday my phone dropped into water for less than 2 seconds, the water damage indicators are still white. My phone was working up until late last night when the screen was tinted green and flashes on and off continuously. Ive had the phone in rice since last night, Ive taken it apart theres no corrosion or water or anything. The phone still works perfectly except for the screens color and going black (turning off) every two seconds. I dont know what to do Im starting to get frustrated because I only have 3 (General)

HELP, water damage? 30 weeks 2 days ago

My phone dropped in a i sick for maybe one second, it was fine for an hour then the screen went all discoloured, i set it in rice and it was back to normall in 15 minutes... 3 hours later the screen is flashing on and off and is completely tinted green. I have NO idea what to do, its been in rice all night and it still doesnt work properly.

So I forgot to plug in my phone the other night and the battery got completely drained. I plugged it in the next morning, and nothing turned on, no charging display on the screen, no LED, nothing. Left it plugged in for 24 hours, nothing.

So i was wondering if my phone could be damage from finger being too wet. I pressed the home button earlier and saw like 2 droplet of water near it due to not drying my hands good enough after washing it. The phone is working perfectly fine atm but would like to know if this situation should be avoided or does it take alot more than that to cause water damage to the phone.

Accidentally dropped my phone into water. I pulled it out and dried it off as much as I could, took out the SIM card and removed the back. It's now sitting in a bag of rice by the vent in my laptop.

I have two main questions: 1. Where are the water damage indicators? I've been looking for them and I can't find them 2. Is it really impossible for me to remove the battery?

I accidentally dropped my brand new phone in some water, and I thought it was dead at first but after a couple days it booted fine, but the battery seems to drain pretty fast and it also periodically vibrates when it's off but the battery is in. I want to get it replaced but I'm not sure what my best options are. Can I sign up for Asurion insurance and get a replacement with a deductible?

I was rooted with s-off running condemned CM7 on my dinc2. I had the new firmware so I used this method http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1751796 to get there. Phone got wet...not even submerged just wet for a minute. And it had an otter box but water still got into it.

Screen Color Issues 12 weeks 5 days ago

My Evo 4G has been wonderful until yesterday. I had been using it, plugged it in and when I woke it from sleep mode the colors on the screen were very bad. Where there should be green (battery level indicator, notification on messages etc) are showing up red, thing that are supposed to be white are purple, brown is pink...it's crazy.

So I dropped my phone in the toilet last night, I wasn't sure what to do with it so I took it apart and vacuumed the phone for about 20 minutes then sat it in rice overnight. I tried turning it on this morning and it all seemed to work except it won't connect to the internet (it says it's connected on wifi but it isn't) or mobile data, plus the battery seems to be depleting rapidly (which I'm gues

Putting this in the All Things Root section simply because, well, I'm rooted. I can't help but hope the issues I'm having may have to do with the custom ROM I am using (Angry Bean) and not water damage. Anyhow, I was at the beach a couple of days ago and taking pictures with the phone, in the surf up to my knees.
