Objective
- To check the Liquid Damage Indicator (LDI) to see if the phone's SIM slot has been exposed to moisture
Environment
- Samsung Galaxy S8/S8+
Procedure
- Remove the SIM tray completely and look down into the slot
- You should see a small sticker inside the slot
- Use a flashlight to help if necessary
- If the sticker is still white, then that part of the phone has not been exposed to liquids
- If the sticker has turned red, purple or pink then moisture has gotten into that part of the phone at some point
Additional Notes
- There are multiple areas where the phone might be exposed to liquid and damaged, this should not be seen as a guarantee that the phone has never been damaged due to liquid
- If you believe the phone has been exposed, this may help in determining the level of exposure
- This is the only LDI which is externally visible and able to be checked without a technician
