Mobile phone water damage

the water sensor paper inside the device now gives a very clear indication of water damage - they are small white sqaures of moisture sensitive card stuck to the battery, main unit and inside on the PCB itself - if they are red instead of white it means water damage which = no free repair.
Things have moved on quite a bit in this area...0 -
