I think you may hv seen this YouTube video about immersing your N5 into a plastic bag of uncooked rice for a few hours to suck and dry out the water.. worth a try

not sure liao. if it is screen, it might be over $300. But you are still not sure if the internals are affected. It might not be worth to repair, after all it's 2 years

Check which app eats battery ij background. Eg social nedia apps are biggest culprit. And so called device maintenance managers

Mine too lolol. I still have my Galaxy S2 since 2011, turn the phone on, put in airplane mode and let it drain. 7 days now with 10mins SOT and need to charge liao, so it seems like maybe it's more to do with the OS and apps rather than Samsung's battery lousy?

Same here with my Note 5. It is still a very capable phone but the battery can't make it. Left it off to drain during my vacation. From full to 4% in 2 weeks. One of the reason why I make the jump to Note 8.

If you want to use data saver and not having that icon. Download app System UI Tuner from Play Store. If your phone not rooted just need to grant permission via adb.
