    Hello. It is possible that I chose the wrong forum because I gave tablets and I have a problem with the phone, but I hope someone will help. My problem is that the Samsung Galaxy J5 2017 phone fell into the water and the home and power buttons do not work and I want to check if the phone itself is still working. Of course, due to the fact that these 2 buttons do not work, I can not turn on the phone. Greetings.

    I have the same problem. The phone only works there is a problem with these two buttons. Sometimes they started working and then both stopped working again. What could it be?

    For replacing the button tape.

    Both? Because they are two separate tapes

    Since there are two separate tapes, both must be replaced.

    Take the phone apart and see what the condition of these tapes is. Maybe she can be saved. Nobody here is a fairy, unfortunately. But assuming that the tapes are to be replaced, the cost is not high, but there is some work :)

    Unfortunately, it was not possible to deal with it and I sold the phone.
