 Wow, i dont know whats going on...  Group: Member Posts: 1,439 Joined: Apr 2004 Member No: 10,977  |
I left my phone in my pocket when I washed it. I got it back out, and the inside of the LCD was all wet.
I took it apart, and dried most of it. But the LCD won't dry yet. I've looked up online and found a couple of things out. 1, the sticker on the back of the phone is supposedly to turn red when in contact with water. THey won't replace it. I should bake it in the oven at 150 degrees and stuff to get hte water in the lcd out. I'm not sure, what do you guys think I should do? |

If the phone was on OR the battery was inside the phone still while it was being washed. It's fried beyond repair. A machine wash will kill it. Too much time in the water.
I mean, the charge from the battery even if it was off was short circuiting the phone for a long time. I think it's dead. If you can't feign its death to the dealer, then it's time for a new more hip cellphone! I'd wait a couple weeks + intense hot drying to give your fake story to the dealer. |

D600! :D But if you're low on money, get a e730 like me--it's affordable... well I got mine for free so yea..  Anyways, you know what you can do? Call your phone as lost. Do you have insurance on the phone? I hope so! Insurance comes in handy
