  1. 1. Do  not turn on your CP

    2. Remove the Battery and let it dry.

    3. Remove the covers  (Front and Back) and use a Hair blower and let it dry or dry it under the sun.

    4. If you think it is already dry, you can put back the battery and turn it on.

    5. Good luck.


  2. You have to remove the cover, take the battery out. Put the device in front of a fan for a day or 2. It may work, its a shot anyway.

  3. Depends who her carrier is, my just got drenched too it was through verizon, and I had indicaters on it that said if my phone got wet (they turned red) It still wont turn on. And it cost me 50 bucks to replace it with a used phone.

    Some people say open it up take it apart and let it dry out or blow dry it, then it may work.  

    Good luck

  4. What model? I'm not being prejudiced here but I have found out that older models can take to the waters better. Leave it out to dry for a day or two, insert the SIM back and VOILA!! Mon ami, you have completed it.

  5. take it apart, and sit it out to dry....it may work again, it may not

    do not turn it on...it can short out the battery.

  6. if it went through the wash it's junk., there is no fixing it.
