    Post [q] help water damaged s5

    I can't believe everyone is telling this guy he's SOL. Yes it was a silly thing to do but who hasn't made a mistake? Jsong, the rice trick takes weeks typically to work, helps if you can get it in direct sunlight as well to speed up the absorption rate. I would suggest giving the rice trick a...

    Post Galaxy S5 Water Resistance Thread

    1. I doubt this would cause any issues and even if it did I'd bet it would take a long time to show any wear from safe levels of chlorine. 2. No, do not take it in salt water. Yes you can physically take it in salt water and it will work obviously but the headphone jack is exposed and it will...

    Post Waterproof?

    Audio is just metal touching metal, no need for it to be covered. It is however one reason you can't take this phone in salt water. Fresh water only. I take mine to the beach all the time, nice not to worry about getting splashed or rained on, but definitely want to rinse it with fresh water if...

    Post Zero lemon 7500mah battery is available for pre order.

    Pretty much the only reason I chose the S5 over the M8 is the camera and the water resistance. Stinks you have to give up the IP rating for a larger battery.

    Post Looking for a underwater case for the S5

    Pretty much this. Why bring your phone diving if your only using it for pictures? I understand the tech part, it's cool that our phones are "waterproof" but if you want to take pictures get an actual camera meant for this. Also bringing your phone around saltwater (if thats where you plan on...

    Post Mime Feather+ for S5

    Like the last guy said, the ghost glass is significantly thicker when thinking in terms of nm & mm. I have the feather glass on mine and couldn't imagine having anything thicker as it sits flush with the home button as it is now. I've put mine completely underwater, no issues with the glass. As...

    Post [ROM] Android Revolution HD 93.0 | High Quality & Performance | 7.19.401.30 | 5.0.2

    Running 62.0 here. I'm preparing my phone to sell so I encrypted the storage to help secure the data before i wipe it. Entering TWRP 2.6.3.3 now though it won't accept my password. I made it a crazy simple password, nothing special so I'm not sure whats happening here. Anyone know issues with...

    Post Glass screen protector

    yep, everything works as you would expect a stock s5 to. The seal is air tight so water has not been an issue even completely underwater.

    Post Mime Feather+ for S5

    Lol, sorry I jumped on the defense there. Yea it worked well for me, I had to redo mine 5 times because I didn't clear the dust off well enough which was causing bubbles and because of the raised lip you have to align the glass perfectly. I used floss to peel it off and just went very carefully...

    Post Glass screen protector

    Here is an album I made real quick showing the Feather Glass from MimeUSA. Free shipping in the US, came in 2 days. Very pleased with it. Fingerprint scanner, air view, all the regular jazz works like normal. https://imgur.com/a/Boizt

    Post Mime Feather+ for S5

    I made a album of what the feather glass looks like on the S5 after proper installation. Because of the raised edge on the S5 you have to be pretty exact but don't freak out if you mess up, you can lift it off VERY CAREFULLY with plain floss and try again. https://imgur.com/a/Boizt
