Earbud Quieter than the other I accidentally left my wired apple earbuds in my lacrosse bag during a practice when it was pouring. The earbuds felt fine but were a little wet. So now I think the right earbud may be water logged since it’s quieter than the other. I checked my balance and it was at 0.00. Is my right one waterlogged and how do I fix it. Or is it toast?

Earpiece Dear community, I got my iphone into sea water and since the next day of the incident, the earpiece (the receiver, not the speaker) produces a metallic sound that seems totally problematic and taints all the exported sounds of the device. This is the third day in a row that the incident continues. Can this be incidental? IP 68 seems to be perfectly fine with it and I am just wondering what went wrong. Thank you.

Hello,

Check to see if the liquid-damage indicator is on here:

Water and other liquid damage to iPhone or iPod isn't covered by warranty

Also see:

Good luck.
