The monsoons are still a long time away, but the reason for writing this blog is because things happen in the weirdest ways; still, keeping your phone damage-free should be your first motive instead of waiting for your luck to go bad.
Don’t feel embarrassed if you’ve dropped your phone in the pot; 19% people around the world do so!
Let us discuss five simple steps of getting first-class paramedics for your phone, if it drowns. Drowns in a puddle of water, joins you for a dive in the pool, stays back in your pocket for a wash etc. Oh! And don’t feel embarrassed if you’ve dropped your phone in the pot; 19% people around the world do so.
Here is how you can save your phone from drowning (as long as you aren’t doing it on purpose):
Step 1:
If your phone comes in contact with water, you must strive to pull it out as fast as possible before the water finds a way in. For all phones it is the headphone jack that quenches its thirst first; second in line are the sides of the battery flap that forms an inlet for water. You have the option of using up all your warranty, but it would be more sensible to follow .
Step 2:
The Sony Xperia Z should be popular among the 19% who want a smartphone that can survive a water fall (not waterfall). Anyway, step 2 is to wipe off the water thoroughly with a cloth. Do not worry about washing your hands, just yet, if you pulled it out of the pot.
Step 3:
You would have to remove the battery and insure that you have wiped the insides too. By the way, do not try removing the battery if you are using an Apple iPhone; that would just mean that you have lost all your warranty and you would have to pay heavily for your stupidity.
Step 4:
Get hold of a zip lock pouch and fill it up with uncooked rice, because rice is a natural absorbent. If you have some silica gel handy that should work like a miracle! Drop in the battery and all the other parts into the bag and leave it by the window sill for some sunlight. Try not to blow dry your phone, it might do more damage than help.
Step 5:
Keep the window closed lest your zip lock pouch finds its way to the bottom of your building. Assemble all the parts and try to use your phone. Ideally try this step after a minimum of twenty-four hours.
This should dry up your phone and prevent any lasting damage. An important note for when your phone feels like a water baby – most phones come with a humidity indicator, which is an inconspicuous white strip that turns red when it comes in contact with water. This strip can be found near the battery socket in most phones. If you’re handing in your phone to your service guys, in order to save some repair costs, you can cheekily replace this strip with a white paper and hope to get away with it!
