I had an accident

<< < (4/6) > >>

Evilgoat:
Go get some de-iojnised water, take the battery out and give it another dammn good dunking and you may be ok.

De-Ionised water is pure, tap water isnt and contains corrosive chemicals that will eventually nail the phone. These things are ussually washed in de-ionised water before assembly.

I managed to take my phone swimming with me once. I noticed that my leg was starting to get hot, took the phone out of my trunk pocket, it was getting a bit warm & making nice hissing & spitting noises. However a good shake to get the water out & night on the radiator saw it fine again.

the rubber cased ones are designed to survive beiing dropped in water that kinda thing

Hopefully, it will be fine.

Take it apart, clean all the suggary gunk off the inside of the keyboard, any electrical conectors you can find, etc; stick it on top of the boiler in bits for a day or two and hope.

If you have a pretty basic phone, odds are good it will be fine. Otherwise, moan at your phone supplyer for another phone.

I used to own a chippy and managed to drop my Nokia 8210 in the pan. 30 litres of vegetable oil at 350F yet when I got it out it still worked. The front plastic had warped and the mic was muffled but it worked.
