I got water on my phone?

Question

My phone is a verizon wireless samsung phone. Model SCH-A950. Its not a great phone, but i really need it. (I'm a teenage phone that spends most of her time txting :])

I was at the pool and my phone was sitting on a chair, when two little boys splashed water on it. I tried to dry it off and took off the battery. There was water inside so I wiped it off with my dress. I immediately went home and blow dryied it.

Now all that happens when I turn it on, is its says VCast and that downloading bar(when you start your phone) and usually, the bar fills up and goes to my backround, but now it just.. kinda flashes. For about a second its taht red screen, then it turns black, then red, then black. I left it to dry for about.. 3-4 hours, until night time. Before I went to sleep I put the battery in and charged it, this morning I tried again and it hasnt changed one bit.

What sohuld I do? If I need a new phone my mom will freak.

Answer 1

my experiences with cell phones getting wet are unbelievable, it will eventually come back on yes that works to blow drying it, you'll just have to be patient or get another phone, it took my sisters phone about 2 week s before it showed any sign.

Answer 2

Start saving your money, helping around the house and be prepared for your mom to freak.  You need a new phone.

All you can do really is put it somewhere warm, but not too hot and hope for the best.
