Re: OAKLEY ROKR fell in water- will not turn on- can...
If it was fresh water then it could most likely be saved but due to it being salt water unfortunately it will not be possible as the salt is very corrosive and will have done damage to the electronics.

Hi you are having the same problem many of us are.I've had 2 pair with this problem and Oakley wasn't any help as the internal parts are Motorola. Btw Motorola was even less help. I replaced the battery on my pro's this afternoon and I still have the same problem, Green light shows fully charged and still won't power up. Good luck (Better luck) than Ive found as Ive been trying to get a fix for years
Its either sweat damage, which 75% of the time can be repaired or the ribbon cable has started to split. Then they are just good for parts or regular sunglasses
It will normally be the wires that run through to the speakers, I have 20 replacement wires, its not easy to replace. I offer a set price of $50 to repair them if you are interested. I also have the replacement batteries and lenses
Hi I'm not sure if you have found the battery yet..but they are available on eBay. You need to know that this is a on going problem with this product and in most cases won't fix the problem. In most cases its the ribbon inside the left side thats become corroded and has failed. I had 2 pair that did the same thing and Oakley said the same thing ...SORRY WE DON'T REPAIR O ROKRs.TRY TALKING TO MOTOROLA. then motorola said talk to Oakley. It was a classic case of pass the buck.I think this problem led to Oakley discontinuing sales of the O ROKR line of bluetooth Sunglasses. They were just to sensitive to sweat damage as they weren't sealed to well.
I can normally repair them as long as they have no water damage. When the charger is pluged in does the led come on? With a dead battery or one not even installed the led should come on. If it does not then its probably the logic board and Oakley do not sell spares.
