the alcohol trick works better then anything..kinda the same with getting water in your gas tank the alcohol will not damange your device as it evaporates . and will take the water with it... we used to own a computer store and saved many laptops like this . even those spilled with milk and cola on them..

Sorry for you. I know how bad I would feel if this happened to me. Maybe you should contact Google / Asus, tell them that you want a repair for an accidental liquid damage and ask for a price. Sometimes, it cost less than buying a new one as they may have a fixed rate.

Good luck!

Well guys after about 24 hours I plugged the battery back it.

Everything seams to be working as it was :)

All I ended up doing was having it sit in the server room and and it wrapped in paper towel. I never got around to doing anything else with it. I'm so relieved! :D

I'd still take it apart and give the board a rub with the alcohol. I spilt a whole cup of coffee on my laptop about 3 or 4 years ago, it went over the keyboard and out the vents underneath. I Immediately force switched it off and ripped the battery and let it sit on the radiator for two days (it was during winter at the weekend so I didn't need to use it).

After that It booted up and worked fine. It did eventually die about a year later and I opened it up out of curiosity and the board was still sticky and pretty corroded because of that incident. I imagine if I had cleaned the board it might still be working today.

When a coworker in my lab went out for an excursion in the rain with his Blackberry (which subsequently stopped working), I took out the battery and let the phone soak in deionized water for about 10 mins. Water itself isn't really a problem it is the dissolved salts and minerals present in it. Rain water should technically be distilled but I didn't want to take any chances. After letting it soak I put the phone and the battery in a vacuum dessicator which we use in the lab. After an hour the phone was working again.

Rain water would pick up the other gases in the air on the way down. So with CO2 in the air, you could see traces of carbonic acid even though it is only sparingly soluble.

Thus good choice in not taking the chance :)

Hi, unded2012...

I've read somewhere that electronic devices that have been exposed to water can sometimes be recoved by placing them in a bag of rice. Something to do with the absorbent nature of rice, I understand. I don't know anything about your particular tablet, but if you can remove the cover, dry it of as best you can, and then leave it in a bag of dried rice for a day or so... it might just be recoverable.

Good luck.

Rgrds,

Ged.
[Nexus 7 General] swisstourist:
More than a day. At least 3 to 5 days.
[Nexus 7 General] jamiethemorris:
Worked for my mom's iPhone and my macbook pro... You probably want to take the back off though if you can before you put it in the rice.
[Nexus 7 General] zcucurullo:
Can you boot into recovery? You should have dried it in rice before turning it ON. If you want, you can try opening the back cover, let sit in rice for 2 to 3 days (completely covered in rice, inside a bag or case) then try using recovery to install official ROM and return it to stock). Hope it helps an works.

Dropped my Nexus 7 in the toilet too

Yesterday, my kid dropped my nexus 7 2nd gen (2013 model) in the toilet ( or at least that's what I've concluded, since he came out of the bathroom and it was glitching out - no touch response; all i could do was hold the power button on for 10 seconds or so and it would reboot; rebooted ok a couple times, but still no touch response, and then it would reboot to the android "no command" error screen. Opened it up, after watching a youtube video on how to open the thing, and saw water drops inside.) I pulled the battery cable (straight up, not to the side) and set it over the furnace register for about 10 hours. Plugged in the battery and it works fine. Decided to put it back on the register for another night, just for good measure. Hope it lasts!

Hi, I flashed a rom i got for the US version (capacitive buttons), followed your instructions except now i get a yellow triangle while it boots and my touchscreen does not work. Do you know how to fix this?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] coulemelle:
Thanks a lot !!!

Very simple tutorial but the most efficient for a noobie. :)

I would just add one thing because in my case, my Samsung Galaxy S Wifi 3.6 was restarting again and again so that I was not able to access to the Download Mode.

To do so, I had to remove the battery for about 30 seconds and then to start the phone by holding "Home" + "Vol -" + "Power".

The device has been flashed in less than 5 minutes and is now working perfectly ! :D

Much quicker than the consumer service... :):):)

Thanks again !

1 day 1 hour+ and it still was showing 100% battery life and discharging, with about 45 minutes of on screen time.

I thought the battery gauge/meter was frozen at 100% and was about to reboot it, but it finally dropped to 99%.

Hello,

today i tried the face unlock feature and i think its a funny thing! Dont discuss about the security, i know the situation!

But my thought was, cause i was looking today about how to show missed calles/sms on the lockscreen tried different things but nothing what satisfied me, I want to change the stock lockscreen a little bit.

First i want to show missed Calls/SMS/ maybee notifications, kind of iOS5.

And know actual thing!

For this example you choose in your settings face unlock and a pattern.

First you press your unlock key, the screen will shown up with notifications if you have one, if not, the screen will be clear as is also now.

Immediately after the screen is shown, the face unlock will search for you face if it found you face it will nothing happens at the moment, if not also nothing happens. The important thing is here is no preview like it is now, cause you want to see the notifications!! So the whole thing is in background!

At the bottom is also the circle thing what you know of the stock thing without a security check. Drag it to the right to unlock, if face unlock is successful you come to your homescreen if not you need to enter you pattern, with a fancy animation, again like on the iphone.

This would be my first android project, so where can i get the jelly bean 4.1.1. source?

And my question to you android genies, do you think it can work without a custom rom?

For sure i will publish my work if i get it to work! :)

Please tell me what you think about my idea! If someone would also try his luck with my idea, go on it would be nice if you dont tell everyone its your idea! If someone wants to know who had this idea before they can google and find this thread! :D

I'm kind of excited!!!
