    yep when it turns pink that means you have water damage. The best way to beat that is to take the sticker off, and when the carrier says somethin about it reply "maybe they forgot to put in the phone, its not my fault that the phone wasnt manufactured the correct way" lol im a con artist lol

    from reading another thread, the red one with a white bar is a tamper proof one to see if you have removed the screw behind it, the water damage sticker is actually behind the battery and is solid white, and will turn red if wet.

    To the "con artist" up above, typically those stickers have a "warranty void if removed" policy behind them, since it is a sticker to protect someone from removing the screw behind it, you removing it is only going to void your warranty.

    QFT

    The round one isn't water activated at all.

    The stripe on the battery will bleed itself "pink" if set off.

    The small square on the side inside your battery comp is the real important one. It should be white.

    Don't worry so much

    Two good answers above me, and to the guy asking what can set one off, something as simple as taking it in the bathroom when you shower will do it.
