Basic rules
So, what to do if Lenovo P780 won't turn on after falling into water?
- As we have already found out, turn off the phone. If the device was connected to the charger, then you should very carefully disconnect it from the network. Remember that water conducts electricity very well, so you can get electrocuted. In this case, it is better to disconnect the apartment or house from electricity and then take out and turn off the phone.
- After you turn off your phone, you need to remove the battery. Then we take paper towels and wipe the device dry. You also need to make sure that all additional devices are turned off (headphones, SIM card, memory card, etc.).
- In order to completely get rid of water, you can try to disassemble the phone a little and wipe it from the inside. Remember that if even one drop remains inside, it will lead to corrosion or a short circuit.
- You can dry your phone with a vacuum cleaner, but you don’t need to put the device very close to the hose. After 25 minutes of drying, moisture will not remain. This method is perfect if the smartphone is quickly taken out of the water. Do not use a hair dryer for this, as it can melt some elements with warm air, this will only hurt.
- Remaining moisture can be extracted with rice. If you leave your smartphone overnight in a bowl of rice, then in the morning you can already turn it on. Rice absorbs moisture well, but the gadget must be double-checked before turning it on.
- Check all ports on your phone before turning it on. If it looks completely dry and clean, you can turn on the device. Perhaps you have strange sounds when you turn on your smartphone, which means that it is damaged. Also, if the phone does not start to turn on, but looks completely dry, then it may beLenovo P780 battery is damaged or dead.
- If complete drying did not help, then you should take the phone to a service center, where it will be checked for serviceability and, possibly, brought back to life. Of course, it will be quite expensive, but it is cheaper than buying a new smartphone.
