Yesterday afternoon, my phone fell into water. At first, there were no problems, but later that evening, I noticed water in the lens, and now (the next morning) it regularly turns itself off and on again (reboots). If I try to turn it off completely, it automatically turns itself back on. My sound is also gone (although I can make calls without the speakerphone).
Can this problem be solved at home or do I have to send it in for repair?

Loading...Hello, how do I record stomping/ball play on my iPhone? The voice recorder app filters everything.
I took my entire iPad apart; the batteries are intact, even though I removed them. I also destroyed the hard drive, or whatever it is, and took it apart. Can I now throw all the small parts, the screen, and the casing, in the general waste? Battery of course not.
Hi everyone, I'll get straight to the point. I haven't found what I'm looking for, so I'd like to ask my question here. I'm looking for a photo and video camera for a beginner like me who hasn't had any real experience with it yet. To be better for YouTube, music, and possibly TikTok videos,…
Hello, I got a new iPhone 13 Pro Max for Christmas yesterday. I changed my contract but kept the same number. I tried to sign up for Telegram today and was told a code had been sent to my number. However, I didn't receive a code, and when Telegram tried to call me, it didn't…
Hello, I bought two new AirPods Pro from my brother. They're a bit dirty, so I wanted to clean them with isopropyl alcohol. The pharmacy gave me 70% isopropyl alcohol. Can I use this and put my AirPods in it? Or will the remaining 30% ruin my AirPods?
I have a new phone. Apple Watch is connected to the old one. Can I simply transfer it without having to reset the watch?
A water damage is pretty much the worst thing that can happen. If you don’t have an AppleCare+ worth repairs at Apple as well as never, it would anyway go out to a complete replacement of the device, as you always have to expect the device to be able to cope with consequential damage for months later.
If it’s broken on eBay, as long as it’s still partially running and you’re getting a new one, so you’re most likely to get out.
There only helps repair and hope that the damage already caused is not too great.
Of course you can do a repair yourself, that is possible and allowed. For example, look at ifixit by instructions. However, this is not quite trivial.
Mobile phones in the water are such a topic. Important rules of thumb: turn off immediately, do not turn on again, do not load, first let dry, thoroughly clean. drying can take 2-3 days. Otherwise exactly what happened.
