Thanks for this nice view. Was this lucky or do you usualy have to do more ? I'd do mine if I have just to spot corosion and brush it off, but ive no knowledge about phone repairs. What are some key elements i could be watching for ? realme 8 died yearlier in the week in a bath ...

[@rickstechrepairs]

you need to look for white corosion, but also i find liquid damage a luck of a draw with how bad it is

[@SSAS939]

I happen to have the same phone Mine just feel down a toilet💀and after cleaning it and letting it dry, it still won't open. The strange thing is, When i retrived it the screen was on and the touch was also working so i quickly turned it off (screen off) and now on power on the screen just flickers white and shuts off again... any idea what's going on?

[@vekopandurevic4892]

Hi Rick thanks for the vid, can I contact you to have a look at my realme?

[@beans5732]

After my phone(realme) got wet, the power button is not working but the screen shows the charging screen when it is charged when I plug it in

[@rickstechrepairs]

[@rickstechrepairs]
