you'll need a hair dryer, guitar pick, and Philips screwdriver

if phone repair was easy like project Ara, most technician makan bubur

NOTE: hard impact to the bezel or removing the back cover will render the water proof seals useless. try avoid water after repair

oooooooh

wrong way bro. start from the back cover. refer to youtube

its not like you put your phone under direct sunlight for 30 mins.

or if you wanna experiment

leave your phone on your (untinted car) dashboard for 30 mins under direct sunlight, the glue should be soft enough to remove the back cover ald

exaggerate..

electronics + water = fail

still conclusion, avoid water at all means

the phones with water damage i encounter every week

even new units may have leak. yours has been repaired b4, the chances of water leak is high

P.S if i wanted the waterproof function, i would sell off the old 1 and get new. just my opinion

i repair phones, customers send in phones with water damage and i check and see whether can revive or not. usually chances are below 30% as customers have tried to turn on the phone while its still wet thus frying important ic (power ic, network ic etc..) in the phone

well not all phones are marketed to be so called "waterproof"

1. take out battery.
2. dry it
3. leave 1 day in uncooked rice

this gives the phone more than 80% chance

few days as they didnt dry the phone 1st. no disassembly

wanna dive, get GoPro or equivalent
