Xperia that was completely submerged and completely broken is a vodka with a resurrection of miracles

Although it is a Xperia series with strong waterproof performance, it is not recommended to use it other than fresh water such as seawater or hot water with extreme temperature, depending on the use environment it will not be able to fully demonstrate waterproof performance and it will be damaged submerged there is. When the gadget shot of Gadget Shot in the gadget information site tried immersing the Xperia Z3 SOL 26 which was corrupted by the submersion due to the corrosion of the board and it was not able to start up in the vodka in the original, there was a case where the miracle was revived.

According to Gadget Shot, the used Xperia Z3 suddenly ceased to be called Sun and even Sun and when it was put out for repair, it was discovered that the board was corroded by submergence. Because it is treated as submerged, it becomes out of the manufacturer compensation coverage, and it seems that it took 60 thousand yen to repair. Because repair expenses are expensive so as to self-repairSubmerged restoration itemAlthough it seems to have tried, unfortunately the repair goods did not resurrect Xperia Z3.


Even when the AC adapter is connected, the charging LED does not work at all except that it turns on only for a moment when it is plugged in. As a result of removing the rear case and removing the back case, it found corroded parts. In order to remove it, Mr. Gadget Shot will try a bold repair method that you can remove battery, connector etc etc from Xperia Z3 and immerse it in alcohol.


This is a corroded board.


Alcohol is highly hygroscopic, it can drain water, It has the property of getting dirty. Mr. Gadget Shot decided to use the alcohol to repair the board, pour vodka enough to put the main body on the container, decided to lay the Xperia Z 3 all day long.

After 1 day I took out the Xperia Z3 from the container, dried using the above-mentioned submerge restoration item, and then connected to the power supply, the Xperia Z3 went up safely and took a splendid recovery of the miracle. However, since the moisture had invaded the display part, the touch panel reacted normally but it did not become usable. Mr. Gadget Shot shows that "If you adjust the amount of vodka to the extent that you can not see the display part, or if you just soaked the board in vodka, it may have resulted in another result."


Xperia Z3 is a waterproof standard called IPX 5/8,Product pageIPX 5 has a function as a communication device even if a jet flow is applied from all directions using water injection nozzles with an inner diameter of 6.3 mm and injecting 12.5 L / min of water for a minimum of 3 minutes from a distance of about 3 m "IPX 8 is described as" It is functioning as a communication device when sinking a mobile phone to a depth of 1.5 m in tap water and still water at room temperature and taking it after leaving for about 30 minutes. " That is, there is a possibility that the waterproof function will not work properly except for fresh water.

Also on the product page of the latest model Xperia Z5 "Please do not submerge the terminal completely, do not stay in a pool with seawater, chlorine or drink.In case of such inappropriate use, , The warranty may be invalid. "If you use the terminal completely submerged in water, it may be out of warranty, so you need to be careful enough. Even if it breaks down and fails, even if it is attached to alcohol like this case, it is not always limited to 100%, so unless you have to retrieve the data etc etc, there is no way I can not give up on changing the model It looks good to put it in your head.
