This method of repair WILL VOID YOUR WARRANTY if you have one. I start off by explaining why water damage stops phones from working properly. This phone is from the Blackberry 8300series. My phone fell in a pool and was completely underneath the water. This is meant for phones that have been completely saturated with water and are no longer working. If your phone has only been partially saturated try the rice method first for 24 hours and see if it works before trying these methods. This video was done without a SIM card in the phone. If you have a SIM card in your phone remove that also before using these techniques. This is the best way to fix a Blackberry with water damage and it really works! This video should get your phone working again and save you some money in the process! Good luck!

  • i dropped my bb 9700 in toilet water (not piss). I took it out straight away and tried to dry it with toilet paper. I then left it to dry for about 20 minutes and tried to turn it on. (i took out the battery from the phone and dried them separately) Also after i picked it up from the toilet water the phone was still working and i took out the battery. After i dried the phone i stupidly put the battery back in and it started flashing at the load bar. Now it just wont switch on. PLEASE HELP ME
