[QUOTE="Channel Hopper, post: 1066052, member: 175144"] Not to keep the computer situation at home an isolated one, the other half dropped her mobile phone into the toilet on Tuesday. Lovely. She did claim it was not in there long and dried it out as per online instructions (bag of rice and warm room for close on 48 hours ) , but the damage appears to have been done, no power up, even after charging and the laptop does not recognise the 'USB' device when plugged in. There are quite a few photos in there, plus the contact list that I'm not entirely sure is in the SIM card (or if it is it could also be corrupt) So a 2017 Samsung J3, less than three months old, clean but totally dead. Ive looked through the various stripdown videos and its all to do with dismantling/selling off parts, not about a repair with possibly the exception of the screen and the fully enclosed battery. I've suggested signing up registration with Samsung and see if they offer a repair /replacement service, rather than go to the many third party vendors around here, the original supplier (Virgin) who provided the 'upgrade' at a discount rate say water ingress is not covered under their insurance policy. Thanks in advance [/QUOTE]
