today i used my phone underwater for a while. before getting into water i checked all plugs. when i came i tried to charge via wall charger but it failed.

then i saw that charger plug was deformed little but there is not any water.

phone fully discharged after a while and can not be opened.

can i solve my problem via magnetic charger ?

i flashed doom kernel, is it software or hardware problem ?

i need help cause i bought my phone from thailand and it is out of warranty.

thanks

1. Try a different charger (USB)

Does it work? Great. Does it still not work? Now you know it's not the charger that's the problem.

2. Open the right flap (with the SIM and SD port) and see if the water indicator is still white. Is it white or pink?

indicator is still white.

also charger works on other device.

when i connect the charger red light turns on for a while then i saw doom kernel picture, then an empty battery icon appears just for 2 seconds and phone closes again.

I was having a similar issue so I took it to Bell [carrier in Canada] and they said it was a defect so they gave me a brand new updated Ultra. Maybe try that route. But you will lose all your data
