Answer 1

the worst part was that you used a blow dryer that could have burnt the sim card...you'll be pretty d**n lucky if that works again

Answer 2

It depends. We can't possibly know unless you give us every detail. A good amount of water damage phones survive if you take the phone out of water under 60 seconds and immediately take out the battery and let it dry. Maybe put it in rice to asorb water or use a hair dryer. It can help it's just don't do it too long in one area and you put it on a warm setting. No harm done unless you put it next to the phone and left it there on for a minute. It's okay I dropped my phone in water it took 5 minutes so it's dead. Got a free replacement from a coporate Verizon store. I don't have insurance. Just don't tell you got water damage as soon as you tell them. Say my phone doesn't turn on. If you get a bad helper they will instantly just replace it. But that's not exactly the right thing to do. :) Anyway good luck and try putting it in uncooked rice. Might be to late though. Most likely will work if you were able to charge it. Most likey no short circuits.

Answer 3

It should work cuz my mom cell phone fell in the water like last year and its still workin.

Answer 4

every case is different the best thing to do is give it a shot, sometimes phones dry out and sometimes they're ust ruined.

Answer 5

same thing happened it to me. i have a t- mobile phone and it fell into the pool but i took the charger out and let them both dry throughout the night and it works just fine. so yeah i think it will live
