70% isopropyl alcoholis to to disinfect like for Covid-19 bought at pharmacy.

100% isoprophl alcohol (no water) is for cleaning electronics bought at electronic store.

Remember - highly flammable !!!

But before using alcohol would you answers these questions as you did not really say what your problem was ?

* What happened?

* You wrote "...save puctures (picture I guess?)".

* Are they not on your SD card? Please explain.

* And why do you think alcohol will help?

Sorry, My grandpa fell in a lake, his phone was wet, and got stuck in a bootloop. I fixed it by using 70 percent alcohol because everyone around me is making hand sanitizer with it. He had no SD card in it. Alcohol is meant to displace the water, and i used it because he needed his pictures back. It ended up being the battery that was causing the issue

Glad to hear you solved the problem. Your grandpa was very lucky.

I believe it would be ok, submerging in rubbing alcohol is a standard practice, let it sit for an hour or two and it may solve your problem.
