Hi I've just joined
I have an s6 edge which was dropped in toilet. I had camera and charging issues so changed charge port and battery and it's charging fine now. I still have camera issues and every time I open camera it says camera fail and would hear a crackling sound. I've changed the rear camera but to no avail. Can anyone please help? Many thanks

Welcome to the forums! Perhaps some water damage has affected the camera in some way, causing it to fail. How long have you had the phone? Do you have an insurance plan on it that covers water damage?

Hi Steven! Welcome to the forums! Yeah, I agree with above posters and the problem is that water damage can be progressive, so you don't really know what and when will fail next. Sorry.

Warm Welcome to the forums Steven Coates1977 :D Always great to see some new faces around here. Its amazing how many people drop their phones in the toilet. I have a "no phones in kitchen & bathroom" rule so this never happens lol.

Hope to see you around the forums.

Hello Steven, welcome to the forums at Android Central!

Water is tricky and when it gets into a device can mess with a lot of things in there.
