How to Repair Your Water-Damaged Razor Phone

• Answer:

  Motorola's Razor phones are some of the sleekest cell phones on the market. Despite their clamshell design, these phones are no better equipped to handle water than any other electronic device. If your Razor has slipped out of your hands and into a puddle, a drink or even a lake, the potential for water damage is high. However, you may be able to repair the damage done to your Razor if you take quick action. Difficulty: Easy Things You'll Need Towel Bowl Uncooked rice Can of compressed air or Wet-dry vacuum Instructions Hold down the latch on the back of your Razor to release the battery door, then remove the battery and set it aside. Open your phone and dry it thoroughly with a towel. If you have a SIM card, remove it; if your phone cannot be repaired, you will still have the information stored on your card. Dry your Razor with a can of compressed air or a wet-dry vacuum. Do not use a hair dryer, as the heat will only cause further damage to your phone. Focus the spray of air on the crevices and openings, like the earpiece, the spaces between the keys on the keypad, the power and headset connectors, and the microphone. Fill a bowl with dry, uncooked rice and place your Razor inside. Cover the Razor so that it is surrounded by rice on all sides and leave it for 24 hours. The rice will help draw moisture from the inside of your phone. Tips & Warnings Tip: Avoid trying to turn on your Razor until it has been in the rice for a day. Powering your phone on while the inside is wet may fry the circuits.
