Water Strip on Razor?

Question

The strip is red which I know means it is water damaged. I used a blow dryer to see if it would dry off and it did for a while but then it just stopped working. Besides buying a new phone can you name any other way to dry it off.

Answer 1

(1) Put phone in rice for 24 hours with battery and sim card out.

(2) As soon as possible (preferably within 20-30 minutes). dissassemble the phone using Torx T6 screwdriver. (Get this off eBay or service depots, etc) Make an emergency trip to Sears/RadioShack/ACE/service depot/etc.

(3) Clean/dry phone as much as you can, using Q-Tips

(4) Dry the electronics components under a desk lamp on a paper towel for 24 hours.

(5) Use a blow dryer, set on warm. Blow dry the phone. Make sure your battery and sim card are out of the phone.

(6) Reassemble the phone

(7) Put back together

(8) Only now it's safe to put the battery back in.

You can also leave the battery and sim out. Leave your phone out in the sun. Let it dry.

Answer 2

only other suggestion is completely remove it with Goo Gone or something and say it didn't have one... idk how else... sorry.

Answer 3

this is going to be a bad answer on my part...BUT i had a friend get some extra smooth white out and basically painted back to white, and she wasnt charged...just a suggestion but just know you MAY get charged...lol, and if you go that route, do not tell them the sticker is red and dont tell them about any water damage, just say no if they ask.
