hi I went fishing like a month ago and sea water splashed my phone, then the flash light was turned on and the screen black
as soon as i reached ashore i wash it with fresh water and unplugged the battery, i put in rice like for 3-4 days and nothing happened
when i put back the battery on the flash light was still on, i gave up on him and left in my car, now yesterday was planning to sell the battery
to a friend and for some unknown reason y put it to charge and the led light went on, i could heard the samsung start sound but the screen
still black, the lowers lights for the menu and the back Icons are not turned on, can it be fixed?

Someone help me pls, comments are most welcome!

Tks!

You went fishing and your phone got splashed with seawater and you washed it with freshwater too? What a strange coincidence! :eek:

Do you have a Pattern/PIN/Password lock on your phone? If not, you should be able to install the Kies software from Samsung and use that to backup all of your important data.

As far as the non-functional screen goes you can try something like http://m.repairsuniverse.com/samsung-galaxy-s3-screen-assembly-replacement-white.html
