  1. forget your phone,stop whinging,DEAL WITH IT,spoiled brat


  2. Well you should have not turned it on, it might be fried now. Also did you have insurance on the phone?? If you did you might be able to get a new one for $50!! Anyways here is what you do take the battery and memory card out and get a bowl of regular uncooked rice (not instant) and put your phone in the bowl of rice and just leave it your phone sit in the bowl of rice for a week and then buy a new cell phone battery and put it in and see if your phone works. The rice should draw the water from the inside of your phone!! Don't put the old battery or memory card back in. If it works great :) if not your phone is fried and you will need to get a new one!!

  3. heyelhfsofhsfosfljs hey sarah... ur soooo stupid!!! how could you put your fone in the TOILET?? especially  for FIVE min?>??? gosh.

    listen to what everyone else says.

    DUMOOO

    (btw, your pretty pop. w/ ur question)


  4. Ok step one: take the battery / back off. Now grab a hairdryer and run in over it (not too hot) for a few minutes. Just get it really dry. Then grab a ziploc/plastic bag and put some rice in it and drop your phone in there. Let it sit in the rice for a few hours. Good luck!

  5. Keep your phone in rice for a night or two, it will obsorb the moisture. Your battery and back of phone have two white stickers with either red or purple crosses or dots. If these two stickers are totally red that means your battery or phone is busted..depending which ones red. If you do have insurance they will not replace your phone free of charger if the stickers are red or missing. The assume you damaged your phone on purpose..GOOD LUCK!!!!

  6. the fone is trash now i know that cuz my friend dropped her phone in da tolite and it dosent work it wont even turn on  

  7. I would just tell my parents

    I am sure your parents wouldn't kill you or get angry with you

    Accidents happpen it's not your fault

    So don't be scared and tell your parents

    I am sure they are forgiving

    You worry too much

    But if you really think that they would get angry with you then

    I am afraid there problaby is nothing you can do without telling your parents, sorry...


  8. Try and let it just dry out, remove the battery pack and leave it somewhere to dry. Sometimes they can dry out. if it doesnt, well.....

  9. You take the back off and take the SIM card , battery and memory card (anything you can take apart) apart and lay them on a towel to air dry separately. You may be able to save it. You may just need a new battery for the phone. I've dropped a phone in water and had it survive. You should pay a little more attention to spelling on Yahoo answers. People are going to give you heck for it.  

  10. I heard putting it in dry rice can sometimes get the moisture out of the phone. try taking the back and battery off if you do this.  

  11. Don't know if this will work since your phone is still on but just vibrating as it may have something shorted out.  But, I know someone who also dropped her phone in the toilet and she buried the entire phone in a big bowl of rice.  The rice absorbed the water out and she was lucky so it still worked.  She kept it there for some hours and every now and then would try it.  She had it turned off while it was sitting in the rice.  Good luck to you...maybe it will work for you too.

  12. Just take the turn it off put it by a window seal for about a week so the  water will dry out and it will be hot and have a full charge.  

    ps.if parents ask why you arn't txting just say there no-one to txt

    or

    you might have to say bye bye

  13. take it apart immediately and then dry off the pieces. you can use a hair dryer at a low setting from a far off distance making sure your phone doesnt get hot. or just towel off. dont turn it on anymore. let it sit dry adn taken apart for a while( i left mien all night) and then it should work

  14. Set them up. And say "What did you do?"

  15. i have an LG chocolate and i've gotten it wet a lot of times... what works for me is taking the battery out, and using a blowdryer to dry the phone... don't overdo it though, and make sure it's not on a high heat setting. blow for a little, then check again, and keep trying... good luck!

  16. dude i just went swimming with my pdone but it didnt work but my friend had your phone and she went swimming wit me so we put both our phones in the oven with out the betterie or anything in it in a towel for 1 min at the lowest temp ever and it restored her phone and it works perfect so i suggest you do that  and we swam 20 min untill we noticed they were in our pockets

  17. take the battery out and put a blow dryer where the battery was this usaully works and answer mine?http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;...

  18. TURN IT OFF!  

    My friend Aaron has done this before.  Take it apart and gently blow it with a blow dryer.  Do not turn it on for like a day.  It might be allright, but the fact that you turned it on may have ruined it.  It should not have been turned on until it had dried out.

  19. ok heres is what my friend did when he dropped it in his pool

    his had it opened wrapped in tin foil and turned on his oven at a very low temp (150-200 degrees)  and you leave it in there for a little bit and his works perfect

    i know this sounds silly but i really worked for him i promise

    i hope i helped you =]

  20. take out the battery open it and let it dry out for a day in the sun if possible.  Then turn it back on.  Good luck

  21. they've told me just to let it dry completely and it would work just fine.

  22. My son forgot and jumped into a pool with his in his pocket.  He got right out and took the battery and sims card out and let it dry out for a few days before trying to use it. It didn't, so we had to get another one.

  23. take your battery, and memory card out of the phone, and let them dry for a day. put them back in tomorrow.

  24. Take the battery out, use a blow dryer on it, and let it sit overnight. Do NOT use it.  The same exact thing happened to me. Take it apart and dry it out as much as possible.

  25. I'm sorry, but are you five?

    If not you certainly don't know how to spell and should be ashamed, i mean darn the spell checker must have been like blowingup.

  26. just chill

    take off the battery and let it dry

    i do that and i dropped mine like 14214269214 times

  27. How did you manage to drop your cell phone in to the toilet...

    Best bet is to probably just let it air out. Blow dry it every now and then, and just hope nothing fried.

  28. Try drying it with a hair dryer for awhile. Then after your almost positive it is completely dry turn it on. If it works your in the clear if it dosent your not. Good luck.

  29. take out the battery and put the phone in a jar of rice, the rice removes the moisture.

  30. if you have the insurance, get a new one.

  31. Funny things happen.  My brother dropped his phone in the pool while he was walking around the outside edge.  Long story short, he opened it up, took the battery out, let it dry out for about a day and it worked again.

    * - Results not guaranteed, but good luck!
