AC Question
Hello everyone. Just this past weekend I was out fishing and the compartment my phone was kept in somehow got some water in it and therefore my phone was pretty much submerged in water for a bit (in the minutes range).
I have a Galaxy Note 4.
When I noticed it had water in it, the LED was holding solid green. I took the battery out, took the phone apart, and shook as much water out as I could. When I got back home, I let it dry more and tried blowdrying it. After I was satisfied that it was dry, I put the battery in and tried powering it on. Nothing.
Then, I tried plugging in the charger while the battery was in it (I was desperate) and the green LED came on (much like when I first noticed the water damage). After a few seconds the LED turned blue and the phone made the noise as if it were turning on. Then, the LED went back green and started flashing green/yellow and made a beeping noise. When I unplug the phone from the charger, it still continues to do this cycle.
I then tried submerging it in 91% alcohol for about 10 minutes, and then I repeated the drying process and let it sit out for about 3 hours. When I tried turning it on, it did nothing. When I plugged it into the charger with the battery in, the green LED cycle repeated.
Any suggestions on what exactly is wrong and if it's fixable?
