How to Repair an I880 From Water Damage

By Technology Last updated Friday, April/19/2024

1). Remove the back cover of the i880 and take out the battery.
2). Wipe the i880 completely dry using a paper towel. Focus on any water that might have built up on the outside of the phone--the inside will be taken care of later.
3). Dump a bag of dry rice into a large bowl and submerge your i880 in the rice.
4). Place the lid onto the bowl and allow the phone to sit in the rice for three days. The dry rice will absorb the moisture from the inside of the phone.
5). Remove the lid from the bowl and take the i880 out of the rice after three days.
6). Brush off any bits of rice that are stuck to the phone. Place the battery back in the phone and replace the back cover.
7). Turn your phone on. If the rice sucked out enough of the moisture, you should be able to use your i880 again without issue.
