Hello guys,
I got my Sony Xperia Z3 a few weeks ago and today I cleaned it quickly with water, since it's supposed to be waterproof.
A few minutes later my phone turned off and now it won't start up anymore.
When I press the power button, it shows the sony logo, the red led comes on, it vibrates 3 times and it turns off again.
When I plug the charger in, it goes to the sony logo, the red led comes on, it vibrates 3 times, turns off, and repeats the process.
Would anyone be able to help me fix this?
Thanks in advance.
Try charging it for 30 then try powering up
Did you make sure to close the USB/SD card ports?
I've been charging it for quite a while and it's still not working.
I've tried button combinations, not working either.
I've also tried the rubberband method but it just keeps connecting and disconnecting to my computer.
Yeah all covers on the phone were closed.
After leaving my phone in a bowl of rice last night, I managed to flash my phone with flashboot.
I hope it'll be working normally again now.
Im guessing your unit wasn't water proof, either becsuse flaps weren't tightly enough closed or your unit does'nt have enough glue between frame and glass in front or back.

This is a common practice for phones that have water inside it. It was commonly done for iPhones that had been submerged in water, pools or toilets.
The rice draws the water molecules out from the phone and into the grains, resulting in a 'dry' phone.

Hey guys,
a few days ago I accidentally dropped an HTC One E8 in water and obviously it doesn't work anymore. Before buying a new one I wanted to ask, if some of our "HTC experts" may have suggestions on what else I could try before giving up.
The situation: I dropped it in water, didn't turn it off (dumb, I know) and it worked for around 10 minutes until it powered off. I left it in rice for a day and it didn't turn on or charge. At this point I nearly gave up.
I left it for in rice (about 48 hours) and - the orange led was flashing while charging. Even the screen turned on and it showed a charging symbol first and after a few seconds it showed a red circle and a white exclamation mark. After some time I could power it on and the touchscreen worked and I could use it, but it still was around 1%/0%. The screen flickered, but it was usable. I wanted to plug it in my computer then to rescue some data, but 5 seconds after I took it off power (to switch from the wall charger to my PC) it died.
Now I tried it to power it on for like 2 days, but with no charger connected nothing happens and when I connect the charger, the orange led is on constantly. I tried power/volume- and power/volume+, but nothing happens. Not even the charging indicator comes up, the screen is completely dead.
Are there any steps to try before giving up? By the way I don't want to disassemble it
Thanks in advance
Hello, so yesterday I Got my S6 White
So the issue is Black display with blinking BLUE LED, and when put on charge I wait a few moments and it turns to solid red no battery icon nor nothing
Phone has never been opened until now I disconnected the batery and connected it back again still no luck, also with display did the same Thing no luck.
Computer recognizes My Phone sometimes.
Please can someone help me. Is it the battery? Do I need to charge it with 1.45mA generator?
So a relative of mine brought me an S6 with a cracked screen. It belongs to his 15 year old daughter. He told me that she dropped it and the phone is now stuck on a black screen. When I put the phone to charge it didn't respond in any way at first. After leaving it like that for 2 hours I tried to boot it up. Only response I got was a flickering blue - light blue led light. So I searched on the net and found a couple of people fixing this problem by holding the power button with the volume down button which performs a simulated battery disconnect, unfortunately absolutely nothing happened. The phone continued to flicker the blue - light blue light. The screen is probably dead as no matter what I try it is also black. I tried entering recovery mode, nothing changed (flickering blue light), than I tried entering download mode and the flickering blue light changed to a constant red light which after a while changed to green, I am guessing the phone was charging now (screen still black). So I downloaded ODIN to see if the PC will recognize the phone and oddly enough when I connected the USB it did recognize it. So what I'm thinking is that the screen is probably dead as no matter what I do it is always black, but I am not sure what else is wrong with it... Is another hardware peace broken from the fall or did the system just got messed up is that even possible from a fall? If just the screen is dead shouldn't the phone just boot up normally and have sound, like being able to ring and stuff ... Any advice/ opinion will be greatly appreciated.
I'm having a lot of trouble with my android. I fell asleep on the couch around half an hour ago and I woke up, and it was dead, so I put it on the charger. But the screen flashed this cyan screen saying broken cable. I put it on every single charger in the house and still nothing worked. I even put other phones and tablet on these chargers to make sure they worked and they did. So I don't know why my phone isn't charging. Whenever I do put it on a charger it just turns in but is an all black screen then immediately turns off. It keep doing this and I'm scared it'll mess up my phone. I noticed in the top corner it said "(timeout) Normal booting" so I'm wondering what is going on and what can I do to fix it. Is this one of those red rings of death moments or am I just exaggerating???
Which phone is it?
