4. When it comes to saving your phone, the first step is to simply turn the phone off if the water damage hasn't done it already. But don't stop there...remove the battery from the phone. Look inside the phone and see if there is any kind of indicator that looks like it's changed color, look on the battery. The most important thing is to make sure the phone is off and in a safe place to dry off. But the best way to avoid a costly mistake is prevention. For example, you could put a waterproof bag or casing over your cellphone. But even when precautions are taken, your phone may still end up water damaged and it can happen even when your phone is nowhere near water. This means that something has happened inside the phone and the phone has been exposed to some type of moisture that has caused that condensation to get in there, which then usually is a proponent or drives the corrosion that happens within the phone and usually the deterioration of the phone starts downhill after that. If you let your phone dry out and it still doesn't turn on, there's still a chance to save your information. We recommend your phone be sent to a Quality Cellphone Repair anytime after the water damage has occurred to ensure the best chance of restoring your phone.

8. Water is your phones BIGGEST enemy. And everyone knows not to dunk it in a pool. But have you ever taken your phone into the bathroom while taking a steamy shower? Have you walked out into the freezing cold from a warm house? Condensation is so easily missed. But it gets inside of your phone and starts to cause "liquid damage." Corrosion starts in just one spot. Then it spreads like mold! If this corrosion is near your charge port, you soon wont be able to charge. If it is on the board, you'll start to get dropped calls frequently. Even the mechanisms that make your phone vibrate and ring are easily damaged.

Last but most important. Super glue and tape are not the answer! If you have cracked or broken your phone, DO NOT USE superglue or tape to repair. Superglue always gets on the board somehow. Tape gets hot and "melts" onto the board. If you want to decorate your phone, please just spend a few dollars and buy new plastic covers! Here are some other ways cellphones can be damaged inadvertently:

Leaving your cellphone in an extremely hot car can damage the battery or the the internal electronics of your cellphone.

Leaving your cellphone in an extremely cold car may cause momentary loss of the screen display.

Walkng out into the cold or taking your cellphone into a bathroon during steamy shower.

Putting your cellphone in a moist towel while at the beach or lake.

Other hazards: Make-up, Paint, Oil, Saltwater, Carbonated beverages, Superglue, tape, stickers, saliva from babies and dogs and even hair.
