So I dropped my rezound in the toilet while i was listening to music. Since it was connected to my headphones I was able to pull it right out. It was only in the water for a fraction of a second. It worked fine for the rest of the night. I threw it on the charging dock overnight, and now the screen won't turn on. It makes calls, the speaker works, and I can use s voice by long pressing search. I need to know if a screen replacement will fix it, and also where the water damage indicator is to see if I can send it to Verizon.

Im not judging, but why were you listening to music in the bathroom?

Trying to change the song while taking a piss. Oh and alchohol was involved

Lmfao. You will be fine as long as you find and replace the water indicators. Then you can call Verizon for a warranty replacement and send it back. You shouldn't get charged.

Look around near the battery. It could be there. There probably is one on the battery too.

You might be out of luck on getting that thing snuck by in the long run. Yeah, there is an indicator in the space under the battery and on the battery itself, but...

Take a look at the second photo. There is (at least) one internal indicator next to the headphone jack.
Possible an internal indicator got tripped. VZW reps aren't careful, but the refurb process might catch you. Then you're looking at a HUGE charge on your Verizon account weeks after the fact. :/
Just giving a heads-up. Possible the water wasn't in there long enough or seeped in deep enough to trip the sensors either, I've submerged an old Pantech with indicators intact before.
Know stuff happens when drunk, just try and remember under all frames of mind to pull the battery immediately and put in rice to dry. Good luck.
Found the battery indicator and the one under it and they're both fine. But thanks for the heads up. Hopefully it works.

You should have tried the rice trick. Immediately after getting your phone wet, tear it completely down - as in, unscrew the back cover, disconnect the mainboard, etc. and put everything in a bag of rice for at least 24 hours. I brought back my Incredible that way.
You're lucky that your water sensors didn't get triggered the one under my battery got triggered and I haven't gotten a drop of water on it just humidity triggered it so I replaced it with my external battery I then returned it and it worked

Yes good luck with warranty fraud .
Would have tried the rice trick but.....alchohol....and it was working fine. And in the water for so little I though I was okay.

In the future, you can possibly avoid ruining the phone if its dropped into water by immediately removing the battery and setting the phone inside a zip lock bag filled with uncooked white rice. The rice will absorb the moisture from the phone and without the battery inside the phone its less likely to short out cause there should be no moving electricity.
My charging cable hasn't really been working well and I just noticed it only has four golden colored prongs inside of it. Can anyone confirm this isn't correct before I order a new one?
Edit yea its not the cable this thing is just barely charging.

Is it the OE cable? And charger? If its not that's your problem.

mine does the same thing from time to time. if its charging slow unplug it and plug back in, then make sure the red light is on. i have noticed sometimes when i get a email or text and the charging indicator goes off(red light), it seems to only be trickle charging per say.

I don't think I have ever used the charger & usb cable that came with my Note 2. I have never had any issues with it charging. In fact, I am currently using a Motorola wall unit with a no name cable upstairs, & a cheap wall unit from Walmart & the cable from an Acer tablet. Both charge fine.
I'm using OEM charger and cable I installed an app called galaxy charging current and its showing a ridiculous fluctuation. I'm thinking it may be a faulty charger. It charges much faster on my car charger.

Those pins are for Qi charging. The NFC pins are above the battery.

No I believe that's the ID chip for the s view cover so the phone can tell the color of the case, genuine product and type of s view (tall or short, although I don't believe the short windows will come out for our notes
no those are the wireless charging pins, the sview pin is the bottom one of the 3 which is clearly missing on that case

No, those are not for wireless charging. They are mounted low enough to contact the bottom 2 pins, which means they control the S-view features.
The charging cover would have 3 pins there plus two pins higher up to contact the NFC pins (if present the wireless charging coil would interfere with the built-in NFC antenna).

Anyone tried using a magnetic mount like this with a qi insert tag? I'm concerned the magnetic strip may interfere with the charging.
Has anyone tried any sort of metal case that interfered with the wireless charging?

Is the nfc in the battery or the back cover. I wasnt to buy some spare batteries and i want to know if i need a certain battery or not to use the nfc. Thanks
It is in the back cover.

Yep, it's in the back cover.
