Razr powers off for no reason

It's probably too late, but first open the case, take out the battery and shake out any water. Then place in a jar of rice (absorbs all the water). Then let it air dry overnight. After all is thoroughly dry, replace battery and try it out. The reason it may be too late, is that with the battery in, electrolysis takes place and damages connections and circuit boards. I hope it's not too late for you.

Hi,
Take the phone and place it in a bad of minute rice....the rice will pull the remaining moisture out of the phone... however the corrosive nature of saltwater may have left deposits inside the phone that are causing it to malfunction...it may never work correctly again... but try the rice before giving up on it...even the rice may take a few days to work...

Dry the phone, battery, sim card, etc. with cloth and wrap each piece, phone and accessories, in newspaper. Place a few handfuls of rice into a plastic bag and then place the wrapped phone in the bag with rice. The newspaper wrapping avoids direct contact of rice with your phone because the dust from the rice can get into the small areas of the phone. The newspaper and rice will absorb moisture. Leave it there (with the bag open) at least 24 hrs.

Hello

Problem was when you got it wet, you did not let it dry long enough. Reason I say this is because when you tried to operate the phone again it shorted out.

Typically it takes about 48 hours to dry completely. The best way is to separate the battery and phone, put them in a bowl of rice and close it up for 48 hours. The dry rice will draw out every bit of moisture.

You really can't do much to fix it. Paying an expert to look at it find the damaged parts and replace them would cost many times over that of replacing it.

Try removing the battery, using a blow dryer to air everything out in battery compartment. If there are any tiny screws or way to open up the phone itself, open it up, and blow everything inside there too.

Let it dry out completely and then see if it will work again. My guess is no, because once the circuits get wet, they are pretty much damaged and irrepairable.

Hope this helps at least some. Good luck!

After getting a phone wet, the best way to dry it out safely and quickly is to pull the battery and bury the phone in a bowl filled with (uncooked) rice for a day. The rice acts as a desiccant and remove any excess moisture.
If the phone still does not work correctly, it may be time to find a replacement.

Sir, you can put it in rice if you want it but the best solution is to open up the phone both sides and clean it or dry it. If you try to charge it or turn it on you will toast it. Hope this would help.

Did you dry the phone completely? Here is the procedure to take out all moisture trapped in the phone: Dry the phone, battery, any accessory, etc. with cloth and wrap each piece, phone and accessories, in newspaper. Place a few handfuls of rice into a plastic bag and then place the wrapped phone in the bag with rice. The newspaper wrapping avoids direct contact of rice with your phone because the dust from the rice can get into the small areas of the phone. The newspaper and rice will absorb moisture. Leave it there (with the bag open) at least 24 hrs.

May be some water get into the phone.Yo need to temove all moisture trapped in the phone: Dry the phone, battery, any accessory, etc. with cloth and wrap each piece, phone and accessories, in newspaper.

You should remove the back plate and the battery.

Let them sit in the sun or warm dry area (garage), dont put it in the oven or near it, for 2 days.

Try booting it up.

If you have tried to start it after is was soaked, this may not work.





Best of Luck.
