HI. The repair time on the Samsung Galaxy Note 8 is about 2-3 hours. We will keep your certification with Samsung as well as make it water resistant again. We will need to test the device so you can take the lock off if that works best for you.
I dropped mine off around 2pm and it was ready by time I got off work at 5:00. They were very pleasant and professional.
