Xperia Z water damage

[anasx0]

Hi everyone,

I have an Xperia Z, and yesterday I've dunked it twice in a swimming pool for like no more than 5 sec. all the laps were closed but the water got in anyway, it stopped working for a while then after one day It dried out and I used Hair drier to dry it more now the phone works just fine but the power button doesn't seem to respond. instead, the volume up button can now start the phone and the volume down can shut it down, the speaker does not work anymore, when I plugg it to the charger the power indicator doesn't go on. And the touch screen is working but the brightness on it is too low barely can see anything, and yes I checked the brightness options and evrything is exactly how it's supposed to be.
So, did anyone had this problem and will the screen regain it's britghness in the next few days or I should maybe replace it.
Help me please.

Thank you

Hi.

Well, coming from a similar experience, I'll have to tell you that I had my display panel replaced. Though, mine wouldn't work at all. The phone would turn on and even give out notifications (with sound) but with no screen. And it was only after the replacement that I found out I don't have vibration anymore (someone said, however, that my vibration panel is dead due to the overuse of glow for closing the back cover).
