Hello,
my S4 mini took a lot of rain under an incredible thunderstorm where i live (Italy).
i dryed it with a ventilator but after 3 days the bluetooth and the wifi stopped working..
also since today the radio stopped working..
i opened it and i found the left upper corner with a lot oxide..but i found oxide also in other parts of the mobile (the mobile was used for an year by my girlfriend..).
I ask you if this damage could be fix..i thought about a spray for oxide (used also with a toothbrush), or trying to change directly the wifi and bluetooth antennas, changing directly the middle frame of the device..
I am not an expert so i ask you help, please ;)
Thanks in advance.
stefano
