Turn red cell phone sticker to white?

Question

I fell in the pool with my cell phone in my pocket. I just got it eight days ago so this really sucks. I dried off the best I could, took the battery out and stuff, but I'm pretty sure there is no hope for it. It is a verizon wireless Motorizr Z6c tv. It was the best phone ever! Anyways, the moisture indicator is very red. Not on the battery, but on the phone. I know that you can't take this indicator off or verizon will know and the warranty is void blah blah blah. I was really just wondering if there is anything that could change the red color back to white color. Or at least pink. A chemical or something? Or to "suck" the moisture out? I know it's probably impossible but it is worth a try. And one last question. If it is impossible, is there any way to get a good deal on a new phone when the old phone has water damage? I'm not sure if I have insurance. Thanks!

Answer 1

call your provider to verify if you have insurance, look on a monthly statement or you can look at your plan-contract online.

guess all you can do is let it dry out for a few more days. there isn't anything you can do for the moisture indicator....

all you could do is to bring the phone in and tell them you do not know why the little sticker turned colors & you want to know what it means.

or you can just go in and be completely honest. completely up to you on how you deal with it.

i am very sorry about your phone. i know how it feels. i hope things get worked out soon.
