How is a water-damaged phone repaired?

With a water-damaged phone, the first step is to turn it off and not charge it. At the shop the phone is opened, the board and connectors are checked for corrosion, the board is cleaned and dried, and damaged parts are found. Diagnosis is free; nothing is done without your approval.

Phone works but the screen is black: what to do

If your phone rings or vibrates but the screen is black, the phone is on; the problem is the screen or its connection. Force restart and charge it first. Shine a torch close to the screen in the dark: a faint picture means a backlight fault. If it started after a drop or liquid, the screen is usually replaced.
