Dropped my cell phone in the pool?

i dropped my cell phone in the pool and it was probably in the water for 30 seconds at the most but i opened it up and shook it and there wasnt much water that came out (just a few drops) so i took it apart and dryed it out in the sun then took it home 2 hours later and took it apart as much as i could. the thing is the dots that change red on the phone and pink on the battery when you drop it in water werent as dark as they can get. i used a hair dryer to dry it out then put it back together and it kinda started up and the lights turned on a little bit then kinda died. but the battery was dead before i dropped it so possibly it the battery that needs charged?

I would say try charging it first, and see if it works then. If not, you may need to get a new cell phone, as I know they will not replace it "for free" when there's water damage.

Unfortnately no. Your phone has water damage. Even if it was just sprayed with water for a few seconds. If your phone has insurance, youre in luck. If not, you may have to get another phone. Either way, go to your carrier.

I washed my phone and it took about 3 days to get it to begin functioning again. The battery took the biggest hit. It will only hold a charge for about 8-10 hours, where before I washed it it lasted 3 days or so.

You might just need to let it sit for a few more days to be sure that it doesn't work, then perhaps try someone elses battery before you put $50.00 into another one.

If it's not the battery, then you won't have wasted the money you could use to buy a new phone if that is the outcome.

Good luck! Cell phones...can't live with 'em..can't go without 'em....

if you are sure that you completely dried it out (did you try rubbing alcohol and a q-tip?) and still no dice--try a new battery--if it was low on juice to begin with then it could be the problem.

Believe it or not water damage can happen simply through sweat or humidity in the air. It doesnt take a lot of water to damage the phone or change the lil dots different colors. I would definately try to charge the battery. However, more than likely the chlorine and the water killed it. Although my dad had an old nokia phone he dropped in the lake it sunk to the bottom he took it out let it sun dry and it worked for another year... That hardly ever happens though. Hopefully you have insurance on the phone!
