Galaxy note 5 acting weird after water damage?
Hi everyone,
I spilled some water on my galaxy note 5 and since then its been acting buggy. I was freaked out and immediately tried to turn it on (stupid I know) and since the battery is not easily removable, I was not able to take it out either. I left it out to dry and eventually took it apart and poured some alcohol on it to dry it out. I even replaced the battery and so far its been working except for one big problem.
Every time the phone goes to sleep or I press the power button to turn of the screen, it shuts down. If I press the home button or power button to wake it up, it starts to boot up all the way from the beginning. Basically, if the screen doesn’t stay on, the phone shuts off. Other than that everything works, including the touch, display, camera, microphone, speaker, etc.
I’ve already tried to factory reset it, and even tried using an app that turns the volume up button to turn it on if it was an issue with the power button. I’ve also disabled the fingerprint sensor since other pointed to that being an issue as well. So far no luck with anything. If I replace the logic board, do you guys think that would fix it?
Is this a good question?
