I accidentally spilled water on my cell phone, help!?

Question

I have a motorola KRZR and I accidently just spilled water on it. The phone was on my lap when I was drinking a cup of water and the water got on it a little bit.

Five minutes later I noticed, and my number buttons weren't working but the end button was. I took the battery out and I am letting it dry out. What can I do to fix this? I need my cell phone because my job constantly calls and texts me!

Answer 1

Enjoy the break for a while.

Just let the phone dry out completely over the next couple of hours. Then take care of any sticky keys with a dab of rubbing alcohol on a pad and rub your keys , again let dry. Your phone should work in a couple of hours. If not, head for Circuit City and get a replacement (they're usually open until 9 PM or later in some towns.)

Answer 2

Good thing it wasn't something sticky!

I've done this a few times lol.

It should be fine in the AM after letting it dry out.
