Phone keeps rebooting constantly after being dropped in water.
I dropped my Lumia 730 (RM-1040) in a puddle of water, and since then whenever I try to boot it up, it boots up, works for a minute (doesn’t matter if I use it or not) or so and then reboots. I am able to charge the battery through a universal battery charger, and I can confirm that when the phone boots up and I can see the battery percentage. I have been able to do a factory reset and during the process (which took about 7 to 8 minutes) it never rebooted (if it got to the reset progress screen in time). The display and the loudspeaker have been replaced once, before this incident, but I had no issues with that that. I have no idea if I should try to repair this or get a second hand one, and I really would appreciate some advice. It’d be great if it were possible to pin the problem, fixable or not.
Any time you have liquid intrusion there's never an iron-clad guarantee of identifying a single problem and solution. The fact that you've continued to use the phone and charge it up means that additional problems could have been introduced.
The *right* way to solve this problem is with a full disassembly, cleaning, circuit testing, and microsoldering to solve the problem, but such a process would be more costly than buying a used/refurb phone on ebay.
