I cannot express to you how much I love you for this!!!(no homo) this worked perfectly with White Spirit, so if you don't have rubbing alcohol just use this. My 8900 is working again! WOWOWOWOWOWO¬! THANK Y9UUOUOUOUUUU2U22U11~!!!! RATEING, SUBSCRIBING, FAVOURITING!!!!! x
OMG men.. You are the master.. I think this is the only youtube video that show how to fix this showing the membrane. Thas excelent. I really didnt know how to take off the white membrane to clean inside. Thanks again.
omg dude i experienced same thing as you and i followed this video and it worked!!! the only thing is i dont know how to put it all back together again xD but thnx for ya video saved me lots of money
mine fell in my urine a week ago and i completely took it apart and blowdried everything and when i tried turning it on it only had a red light :/ what do i do!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you so much!!! this was the second time my phone got water damaged... last time i payed $60+ to get it fixed... and now i only spent $12 for the tool kit and the rubbing alcohol!!! im so happy that everything started working again!!! ^-^
Thank you soooooo much. I spent $4 on the tool kit and this worked! I was so pissed thinking I would have to spend $200-$500 on a new phone after I dropped my phone and it was submerged.
hey guys, just wanted to check back in here and see the comments. anyone who flagged this as spam and piss off. and to all of you who used this and it worked your very welcome. and hope you get a android thats what i have now. but again thanks alot for the feedback
I accidentaly dipped my 8330 in an open drink in my cup holder while driving, I had basically wrote the phone off for about 3-4 months and started using and older Treo 700 back upI have had for years. I followed your instruction to the tee and my black berry is back in full effect. Great post, thanks for the help.
I did the same thing. Trackball moved around just fine, no pushable button on phone worked though. Never touched water, but I usually have it playing music in the RR when I shower, & I assume the moisture got into the phone. I took er' apart & saw that the menu button got corroded. Alcohol/Q-tip seemed to work thus far. Great for if you're just dieing to have your phone back.
Also, if you go on amazon/ebay or just google keypad membrane, you can buy entire sticker w/new contacts on it.GreatVID!
umm i took mine apart cuz it wasnt working very good .... thought back to old slot car tracks n how we used to clean em with an eraser ... needless to say didnt work then watched this vid tried the alcohol worked like a charm thanks dood
my kepad was non responsive and all i did was set mine on a counter that was wet and it was barely wet at all but the alcohol worked!!!!!!!!!!!
I have to be honest. This is the only real advice for how to fix a water damaged blackberry. I didn't even immerse my Blackberry in water but was talking on the phone while in the jacuzzi . The steam and sweat from my face cause fog to in the screen. Afterwards I couldn't press any buttons but the scroll was working only like this guy describes. It will take some patients, but if you are careful and can find a damn T5 and T6 torx screwdriver than it will be done. I say thats the most annoying.
I never dropped mine in water, but the only thing that happened right before this happened was welding class. Maybe the electromagnetic current screwed up something or maybe it was about to go anyways. Either way I did this fix and it works now thankyou so much! Ive been going through blackberry withdrawals for the month that I had to use my backup env touch.
hey i tried this and i regained functionality, and then lost it again..... I don't think I have the 8330 though. but any advice as to why it might regain functionality and then lose it again?!
Awesome, man. This video saved my phone. I used 91% alcohol instead of 50% though, and i accidentally peeled the membrane all the way off, so it was kind of hard to realign, BUT it fixed the problem and is relatively simple.
You wouldnt by chance now how to get the lights on my keyboard or sensor to work again now would you? i got pushed into a swimming pool with my phone in my pocket and ever since my phone isnt the same!
how do you take it apart please tell me need my phone!
