With the vast majority of adults, and even many teens and tweens now carrying smartphones at all times, it’s clear to see that society is heavily reliant on these devices. They are used for productivity, scheduling, school, work, socialising, gaming, taking photos, and much more. There’s no doubt that before you leave the house you always ensure your phone is with you, and it stays with you for the rest of the day. So, with all that continued use, it’s only natural they take a bit of a beating. And while general wear and tear isn’t a big deal, water can be incredibly damaging to your phone.
Dvignite roko, če se strinjate - veste, kako je, če se na vašo napravo razlije voda, ali še huje, če vam naprava pade v vodno telo, na primer v kad, bazen ali celo stranišče! Če veste, kaj storiti v prvih trenutkih in urah po srečanju z vodo, lahko ugotovite, ali bo vaš telefon mogoče rešiti. V nadaljevanju si oglejte korake, ki vam bodo pomagali popraviti telefon, ki ga je poškodovala voda.
Kako popraviti telefon, ki ga je poškodovala voda - ukrepajte
Prvi nasvet je, da morate situacijo obravnavati nujno, kot si zasluži. Če se obotavljate, kot da ne gre za nič hudega, in ne storite ničesar v zvezi z vodo, je to zagotovljen način za uničenje telefona. Ne le, da je treba ukrepati, ampak hitreje ko boste sprejeli te ukrepe, večja je verjetnost, da boste lahko rešili in popravili telefon. To ne pomeni, da je čas za paniko, pomeni le, da bo telefon potreboval vašo takojšnjo pozornost.
Takoj izklopite telefon
Preden začnete popravljati telefon, ga morate posušiti in izklopiti. Hitreje ko ga boste izklopili, bolje bo vplivalo na notranje delovanje telefona. Če je vaša naprava tiste vrste, ki omogoča odstranitev baterija, to storite. Na spletni strani . Kartica SIM prav tako je treba odstraniti. Ko je telefon vklopljen, deluje vsa elektronika v napravi. Če voda potuje po notranjosti naprave, lahko uniči to elektroniko.
Once your device is turned off, resist pressing any buttons. When you do this, it can allow water to get inside easier. You also don’t want to blow on or shake the device for the same reason. Try to keep it as stable as possible. Plugging it in is another big mistake, as this can short it out.
Vzemite telefon iz ohišja
Ko je naprava varno izvlečena iz vode in izklopljena, je čas, da jo vzamete iz ohišja. To storite previdno, da je ne boste premikali in preveč udarili. Če jo pustite v ohišju, lahko voda ostane ujeta.
Po odstranitvi ohišja vzemite suho mehko krpo in obrišite morebitno vodo. Telefona nikoli ne drgnite, temveč ga osušite. Izberite krpo, kot je krpa iz mikrovlaken, ki je znana po tem, da lahko potegne in zadrži veliko vlage.
Do Not Leave Your Phone in the Sun to “Dry Up”
A common myth people can believe is that it’s best to just put a water-logged phone in the sun to dry up. In reality, you’ll be baking the device and not addressing the problem. Instead, it should be moved to a cool and dry spot out of the direct sun.
Ne igrajte se na kirurga in ne razstavljajte naprave
While it is suggested that you remove your SIM card and battery (if possible), that doesn’t mean it’s time to play surgeon and take the device apart. Attempting to take it apart means you risk permanently damaging the phone, and the fact is that even though water got on it, it’s probably still fixable.
Don’t forget, taking your phone apart can also void your warranty so ask yourself if that’s something you want to do.
Poskus sesanja vode s sesalnikom
This tip comes with a bit of caution. Sucking the water out of the device can be very helpful and can be done with a vacuum cleaner but you need to be careful you’re not shaking it and moving it too much. Use the smallest attachment your vacuum has and keep the phone stabilised while vacuuming it. A wet/dry vac will be needed rather than a standard vacuum.
On the flip side, do not attempt to blow dry the device as this can push the water into the device’s inner parts even more.
Za vdolbine uporabite vatirane tampone
Any place where there are indents on the phone or openings, try using clean dry cotton swabs to soak up the moisture. Again, you’re not pushing the water in, you are just gently soaking it up with the cotton.
Kaj se zgodi, če je tekočina lepljiva?
If it’s just plain water on your device, all the steps mentioned are ideal, but what happens if it’s juice or soda that was spilt? These have a sticky residue that will be left on your device. The best tip is to use a soft cloth and dampen it slightly, and then try to pat off the fluid. You may need to do this a few times to get all the stickiness off. Again, you never want to rub the device as this will only cause more problems.
You’ll Need to Practice Patience
After following all these steps, it’s very tempting to turn your device on to see if it’s working. This isn’t advised. Instead, it’s best to show patience, set it somewhere flat and safely out of the way and let it be. Some people think putting it in a large resealable plastic sandwich bag full of rice is a good idea, as it will absorb any moisture, but leaving it in a baggie with silica gel packets often works much better. These are the packets that you find in new shoes, purses, knapsacks, etc.
It’s best to leave your phone undisturbed and turned off for at least 24 hours after water damage but try to aim for 48 hours instead. After leaving it for the suggested amount of time, you can go ahead and turn it on and cross your fingers tightly. The fact is that if you’ve followed these steps, you’ve got a good chance that the phone is okay. If it fails to turn on, unfortunately, that means it may be time to take it to a repair shop and it could even mean you need to replace it.
How to Fix a Water-Damaged Phone – Prevent t from Happening at All
Zadnji nasvet ni toliko korak, temveč pomembna lekcija. Preventiva je ključnega pomena; veliko lažje je, kot da bi opravili vse te korake in se spopadali s stresom, ki sledi. Investirajte v vodoodporno ohišje, zlasti če boste na plaži, v bazenu ali na katerem koli drugem območju, ki je mokro. V takšno situacijo se odpravite ob predpostavki, da bo vaš telefon izpostavljen vodi, kaj torej lahko storite, da preprečite nastanek poškodb?
Na voljo je široka paleta vodotesnih ohišij in torbic, ki v bistvu zatesnijo vaš telefon. Tudi če jih uporabljate le za dneve na plaži/bazenu, deževne dneve itd., lahko to pomeni veliko razliko v smislu zaščite. Predstavljajte si jih kot dežno jakno za pametni telefon.
Če se vam takšne stvari dogajajo redno, morda celo razmislite o nadgradnji z vodoodpornim pametnim telefonom. Številni modeli so bodisi vodoodporni bodisi vodotesni, kar vam bo zagotovilo večjo varnost. Vendar pa tudi če telefon trdi, da je "vodoodporen", je vedno treba upoštevati drobni tisk. Verjetno le do določene globine in za določen čas, zato se prepričajte, da veste, kaj "vodoodporen" ali "vodoodporen" resnično pomeni.
Težava je v tem, da se lahko korozija v notranjosti telefona začne pojavljati tudi takrat, ko menite, da ste ga uspešno posušili. Poškodb ne vidite, zato domnevate, da je vse v redu. Korozija se širi in sčasoma lahko zajame celotno notranjost telefona. Predstavljajte si avto na katerem se pojavi rja. Ta rja se bo sčasoma širila, dokler avto ne bo uničen. Tako lahko na žalost, tudi če se telefon vklopi in se sprva zdi dober, poškodbe zaradi vode skrajšajo njegovo celotno življenjsko dobo.
Ni potrebe po paniki - vendar je čas za ukrepanje
Preprosto dejstvo je, da se s pametnim telefonom dogajajo nesreče. Tudi če mislite, da ste previdni, se lahko kaj zgodi, in še preden se zaveste, je vaš telefon premočen. Čeprav je vaš prvi instinkt morda panika, s tem ne boste rešili situacije. Namesto tega morate takoj začeti ukrepati in slediti vsem pravim korakom. Boljši ko bo vaš odzivni čas, večja je možnost, da boste lahko rešili telefon.
