Iphone 5 water damage to camera how much to fix through O2?
My iphone camera got water damaged in a storm.
I haven't got insurance
It's an iphone 5, 16gb
Do you have some sort of idea how much this would cost me to have fixed through O2 theirselves?
Please let me know As soon as possible thanks x
Added (1). They camera shutter doesn't open at all and I'm worried that it will gradually mess up all together after a while?
Repair costs for a water damaged phone are the ones that are almost impossible to predict as one does not know what is really damaged. So they can be moderate and or the phone can be a complete loss. Anything possible with that sort of damage.
Have it repaired at an authorized repair center - this should give you at least warrenty on the repair.
BTW there's no way tricking them IIRC iPhones have a pad inside that changes color when getting wet.
Remove the battery right away - you do not know where the moisture will creep and if the phone is powered there might be additional damage due to a moisture short.
Any damage can only be judged when the phone is completely dry again. So get it to a repair shop As soon as possible, they know how to professionally dry your phone and test it afterwards.
- Iphone water indicators not pink, still possible water damage? Hypothetically, if you got your iphone 4s wet, but the water indicators are not triggered at all, is it still possible the phone has water damage on the inside that apple would find if they took it apart?
- Iphone submerged in water, logic board has water damage? My phone was under water for 10 sec. Atleast and in my wet pocket for about 2 minutes. Led wouldnt turn off and power / lock button didn't work… Put it in rice and two days later i charge it apple logo pops up then writing pops up above the apple logo. Will the guy taking my phone to clean it out and try to fix it need my passcode? And will my contacts, apps, photos, music, internet history still be on my phone? Like when he fixes it turns and on and stuff?
- I dropped my Iphone in water - no water damage showing on indicator? Here is the situation. I dropped my Iphone 5 in the toilet (I hadn't peed yet so all good there). Immediately switched it off, dried it and put it in a bag of rice. This was at about 6 p.m yesterday. This morning without turning it on I opened up the sim compartment to check the circle for water damage (checked online and apparently this is where to check for water damage). The indicator was white. It is back in the rice but I was wondering - when you think it will be ok to turn back on?
- How to fix water damage on Iphone 5? I know it will probably still be screwed but any tips other then just rice? I have insurance on it so I'll probably get a new one but the deductible is $180.
