Ok my one and a half year old son got a hold of my Epic Touch and I dont know for how long he had it in the toilet.I knew this day would come but I was hoping for it to be my girlfriend's original Epic,lol.
So I took it apart,dryed it real good with paper towel first,then with air and baked it in oven for a minute or two.
I put it back together and it works!Its amazing because after my son diped it in water it layed wet for about twenty minutes before I found it.
I have one question for those that have more knowledge about Epic's internals:
Everything works except the POWER BUTTON!Yes I can use the power button one time to turn on the phone but after that it doesnt work anymore.
I cant turn off the phone,bring up the shutdown/airplane mode menu or anything else,in order to turn off the phone I need to pull battery.
Yes I took it apart again cleaned everything with rubbin alcohol inside and still same problem,any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
Oh,is there any apps out there that can map power button to search or home buttons?

Do not power it back on.. Put it in a sealed bowl and fill it with rice. Leave it there for at least 24hrs. Even longer if you want the best result. It takes water damage a couple of weeks to really rear its ugly head. Sofar rice seems to be the best bet.
Good luck.. Report back to help out others with this same prob.
Definitely try the rice trick... I would recommend doing that before baking your motherboard in the oven.
The only time I've ever heard of baking any electronic device in the oven is for the Xbox 360...

I already took it apart and dried it,plus put it in oven.I would say that there is no need for rice now,rice is for those that want to dry inside without talkn the phone apart.Everything works but the power button which is really strange.

I just did that to make sure any remaing moisture was gone.Still no answer why I cant use the power button except to turn on the phone.
Are you on a custom ROM? if so, maybe its the ROM bugging out, not the phone. Just a wild guess.
Do the RICE deal as mentioned above it WORKS on all sorts of electronics!

Im starting to think that too,im gonna try reflashing and see what happens.Power button does work to turn the phone on but after this it doesn't.
I just don't want to reflash because i been running Blazer 4.0 for 3 months now(the longest i ever went without flashing,lol) and i added all types of custom apk"s to that rom.I would usually extract apk files from this rom and pit them in the new one but i odexed it,so no it looks like im going to have to make a whole new rom and that's a day gone.
He has already gone far and above the rice trick. That would be repetitive and unnecessary.
Also, rubbing alcohol is not a good solution. It leaves a film on the metal that is highly corrosive. You need denatured alcohol.
The power button has a two step contact. That button most likely needs to be replaced. You can order cheap on a wholesale parts website.

Finally someone understands it.I don't think power button needs replacement because i use the power button to turn on the phone,lol.But after that power button doesn't work.The power button only works one time-to turn on the phone but that's it,so its not the button that's defective.Its gotta be software related or one of the chips that controls power button after the phone is on is fried.
I didnt kno the e4gt was out that long lol.. Either way anything could be going on.. It was dropped in water lol

Try button remapper to resolve the power button ordeal. I personally would ditch the search button and use that as the new power button.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
The likely reason its not functioning after you power on is a short somewhere created by the liquid. When powered off the short is not affecting but once on it disables the button. I dont think you can replace that button unless you've got some decent soldering skills and you cant really be sure that even that would fix it. Liquid is one of those wildcards when it comes to electronics. You dont know if your screwed from jump or if the liquid might rear its ugly head later... too unpredictable.

I already thought of that,i was thinking if i run the phone for a while and internals get warm that this little drop of water will evaporate(if that's what it is because i heated in in the oven pretty good,i couldn't even touch it),i will have to see after few days of usage.

Lol the water emits an electrical shock when put in water which can damage any part of the phone.. Heating it up in a microwave is only resoldering the phone.. Wont fix an electrical shock that could have damaged a chip or a hardware button a led etc.. What would happen if you had a pc plugged in and dropped it in water while it was on? Just throw it in the microwave and itd be fine?

Lol,microwave?Who said anything about microwave?Im talking about regular oven,microwave will fry everything in few seconds.
Damn it,now its serious,phone wont go into Download Mode.When i try to put it in download mode i push "up" key for "Yes" and it flashes for about one second download mode,well not exactly it flashes this:
ODIN MODE(in red letters)
Product Name:SPH-700
Custom Binary Download:NO
Current Binary:Samsung Official
Downloading do not turn off target
It flashes that for about one second then it starts to boot into android.Another thing that i noticed is when i power on the phone i get Samsung Galaxy S2 logo then it disappears then the phone reboots and i get Samsung Galaxy S2 logo second time and then it boots into android.
So it boots after second galaxy s logo.I can still boot into CWM though that's only good thing.
Has anyone encountered similar phenomenon before?

Hi! I'm new to this forum so I hope there will be some understanding for the urgency.
Here's the deal; I dropped my HTC Desire in the toilet, clumsy me. I managed to grab it within a few seconds and so I removed all parts and let them dry over a towel. Stupidly enough, I tried to reboot the phone after some time, not thinking that electricity and water does not mix too well. I dried the cell phone with a vacuum cleaner for about 5 minutes and placed it in a bowl of rice. Just recently, I tried to start the phone with the charger plugged in but it won't work this time either. The phone keeps vibrating and vibrating until I remove the battery - what should I do?
Any help is appreciated!

the fact its vibrating must be a good sign, atleast it means you didnt fry the whole thing when u tried to switch it on wet, the best i can recomend is put it back in a air tight container filled with rice, make sure the desire is totaly submerged in the rice and leave it for 24 hrs+ , if it wont switch on after that, then its a repair job

Have to agree; at least it's giving some sort of sign! Problem is that it won't stop vibrating and the screen remains black - no lights, etc. I suppose I'll have to give it a try and see what follows. My parents wouldn't be too happy with me explaining the circumstances... Lesson learned.
Thanks for your help!

F*ck. I placed the cell phone in a box of rice and let it stay for about 20 hours, but it won't start at all now after a few attempts. No vibration at all. I'm starting to think that I'm screwed.

The power button isn't working now either. Will check if the warranty covers this, I'm just hoping that there will be no indications of water damage.

There are usually little white stickers inside the phone which turn red if they get wet, so my guess is you've got little hope trying to get a warranty repair.

Hello!
Got any luck with a service with power button?
I have the same issue. Phone fell into water.. after few days phone works fine, except power button.
HTC Service refuses to make a guarantee repairment (suprisingly - liquid damage).
I think, in my case power button is short-circuited: when inserting the battery, phone is turning on and starting up w/o any problems (normally, Desire doesn't do that, I've tested friend's phone).
Unfortunately, get the root and remap sleep button to optical trackball isn't an option for me...
Someone advised me to disassemble the phone, and try to clean the power button with an alcohol. But I didn't tried this yet...

I'm a bit late, I suppose.
We sent the phone for a repair job but it was "quickly" sent back to me. Good of them to say this a month later, when I was eagerly waiting for them to send it back, whole and functional. Anyhow, I got it back and fortunately; it worked. There were no issues, what-so-ever, with the goddamn power button.
But, ironically enough, I managed to trip into a lake yesterday. What goes around comes around. At least I wasn't browsing for some porn this time. Jokes aside, the power button doesn't seem to be working anymore. Sometimes it'll respond when I boot the phone up, but now it doesn't seem to do this anymore.
Disconnect motor
Disassemble the phone and disconnect contact on vibration motor? Or remove motor and reassemble phone. Worth a try to get a functioning phone minus vibration option. :fingers-crossed:
Hey can know how much the company charge for d repair ????
Okay, so I dropped my phone in a puddle. Did the whole rice thing and whatnot to no avail. The phone isn't COMPLETELY fried, but unusable. It turns on, but only for about 60 seconds at a time before it reboots. The power button is spazzing out and constantly presses so the screen goes off and on. I can use the phone for a minute if i hold the power button and then press the back button when the long press menu comes up.
Enough of that, time for solutions.
I'm not eligible for an upgrade until August in which I was hoping for the GS3 to be released on Sprint by then. I was hoping to maybe buy a bad ESN Galaxy Nexus or even just another Epic off EBay/Craigslist. Would I be able to use my Epic's clean ESN for the Nexus? I'm on a really tight budget so full price is completely out of the question. Any and all help is greatly appreciated guys!
Is it rooted? Better odin back to fc09 if it is and bring it to sprint to see if they'll replace it. I had the same issue with the buttons going crazy and not working and they gave me a new one.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
ESNs are tied to each phone, and cannot legally be swapped AFAIK
Could try taking apart and seeing if a cleaning will help, if you are going to write the phone off anyways.
Do you have TEP? Can try to ODIN the latest OTA, and if it fails see if a shop will replace it, but they may find a water detector tripped
IMO, best best is an Epic off Ebay or Craig's list with a clean ESN
Alcohol!!!!! Watch the vid, it'll help out.

elite developer adam (sorry forgot the last name or so), talks about how alcohol will absorb the moistur or water rather quickly, but if the board got wet, you have a max of 15 seconds before the board becomes warped. meaning, the phone will be totally non-functional. as far as the esn is concerned, sorry, thats a no go.

If this was true, then the rice fix would never work, would it?
I have seen several people say they got their phone wet, and use the few days in rice trick to get it back, wouldn't that mean the board was wet for longer than 15 seconds?

Really all depends on how long it was in the water and how long it took you to get it into the rice... if you can get it out of the water in 10 secs or less you probably have a little time to get it into the rice... not like the water is just gonna pour in it as soon as it hits the water... if you get it straight out you most likely won't have very much water inside it and be able to still dry it out...
My phone went for a swim with me last summer let it set for about 3 days then turned it on and everything worked just fine so let it set somewhere where its hot so it dries your phone and yeah I was one of those idiots that tried turning my phone on several times during that day I didn't stick in rice or any thing like just let it naturally dry out

yeah take the battery out leave it out because everything is still wet inside,you could have shorted out the power strip for the 4 buttons let it dry before you know for sure...put in rice take and or an air can but don't leave the battery in it can get worse if its not dry yet and if it was only water you should be fine

Try leaving the phone in a bowl of rice, cover it completely and leave it for like 2-3hrs and hope it pulls the moisture, don't get ur hopes up though, if u can download button savior or another on screen softkey if it doesn't work so u still have the functions but other than that all u can do is hope man, sorry that sucks

Hello folks!
My girlfriend's phone is maybe bricked, I'm not sure, and I don't think we can use the word bricked, because it just happened whitout flashing or attempting anything, she was just charging it and it shut off.
The device vibrates and boots when you put in the battery, but it just keep going for like 5 seconds after the vibration,
I mean, you put in the battery ...(Vibration)... 1.... (Samsung logo)...2...3...(S3 logo)....4....5....(black screen forever!)
It just does that, no bootloop, no nothing.
And I can't try to turn it on again until I remove and reinstall the battery.
Even if I try to get it in download mode or recovery, It just turn off after 5 seconds!
I tried different batteries also.
Have anoyone experienced something similar?
Could be sds, sudden death syndrome. It's well documented all over. The power button fails and it's considered a manufacturer defect. Take it to sprint and they should replace it for free.

Cleaning it maybe?
Replacing the switch? (I'm watching some switches being sold on ebay)
I also work on a factory where we work with SMT electronic devices so there's a lot of equipment for repairing it.
Compressed air might fix it, and I believe you can replace it with a little patience.

What's happening to your S3 exactly?
This happened to me a few months ago and it turns out my power button was stuck. So what I did is I held the phone perpendicular to a table (power button side) a few inches above the table and with moderate force, slammed the phone on the table and after a few tries, it turned on as usual. Just be gentle with it. I hope this helped.

I fell in the water with my phone. Salt water at that. Once I came to, my phone had a blinking light coming from the camera flash. I took battery out and let dry. Today I got up, took phone completely apart, cleaned with contact cleaner. Was ALOT of salt inside the phone. Anyways I got it cleaned up as best I could, pretty clean. Let dry again for a few hours.
Its back together now, turns on. Screen goes all crazy, pink and fuzzy. Pulsing blue led on front for about 10 seconds. Then nothing. Tried USB to PC nothing.
I found these phone don't come fully apart. I can take out main board, camera and a few plastic parts. But that's it. Lots of phone to take apart but no guides past this point and all the teardowns bring me to the same point.
Any ideas? Maybe bath the screen and what left for electrical components in alcohol?
Thanks

I already bought a new phone. Got another i747m. $400 didn't wanna mess with used phones again, last 3 used phones all ended up having an issue one way or another. Save a few bucks gain a few headaches.
Thanks for confirming what I thought though.
I am going to investigate fixing the phone. Still.
I got it to boot more now, pulsing boot led, vol buttons make a sound when I press them. I used my multimeter to test most of the connections. Everything I could check is fine. I think there is more salt behind the screen and behind the 2 small PCB chips that I couldn't get off. Going to try excessive force this time. Nothing to loose.
Is it safe to use the battery still? Its not swollen or nothing. Or should I not bother being as the water mark on the battery is pink?

The battery *should* be fine for a while. I've used a water damaged one for the longest time but it did spend a couple days in a bag of rice.
