Is there any hope for my wet cell phone?

Apparently you can't cry on a cell phone and get away with it! It still turns on, the screen works perfectly, sound works too. But it only lets me press one number then it assumes I want to use the speed dial. I can receive calls but I can't answer them.

I've had this phone for about 2 months and I don't have insurance. :-(

How long should I wait to see if it will dry out? Has anyone ever has their phone dry out and work properly? Does a hair dryer help at all?

Drop mine a lot of time in the swimming pool. Let it dry and It will for sure work again. 2-3 days on a sun spot or if you are in a hurry than go for a hair dryer (but watch hot not to heat it too much)

You might say this is crazy but take the back of the phone off and take the battery out and spray it with rubbing alcohol. The alcohol evaporates quickly and will take the moisture away from the phone. I reccomend doing this asap.

Depending on how long your phone was in water(?) for it should dry out in 2 to4 hours and work fine. A hair drier may speed up the process but be carefull not to overheat the pfone.

It may be too late, Salt in your tears is corrosive. If you had instantly taken it apart, %26amp; dried it, it may have worked.

If you can take it apart, you can see where the salt has taken over, try to get it off with a barely damp q-tip...it may be a goner though...

It can take weeks. Take it apart as much as possible and place it in the flow of a desk fan for a few days. Steady moving cool air is best.
