Dropped in Water? Can my phone be saved?

ByMicrosoldering SpecialistPosted on 2025-12-251 min read

STOP! Put the rice away. Putting a wet phone in rice does almost nothing to dry the internal components and the starch dust can actually harm the charging port.

What actually happens?

Water + Electricity = Corrosion. This corrosion eats away at the microscopic connectors on your motherboard, causing short circuits.

How we fix it (Microsoldering)

We don't just "dry" the phone. We:

  1. Disassemble the entire device.
  2. Clean the motherboard in an ultrasonic bath with isopropyl alcohol.
  3. Use a microscope to identify and replace corroded chips (capacitors, filters, ICs).

Success Rate: We recover data from 90% of water-damaged devices that come to us within 48 hours. Don't wait!
