My phone has been put in the washing machine :bawling::bawling::bawling::bawling::bawling::bawl ing::bawling::bawling::bawling::bawling::bawling:

I took like at least 50 pictures yesterday :bawling::bawling::bawling::bawling:

I was gunna have a new profile picture:bawling::bawling::bawling::bawling::bawlin g:

seriously though im so upset, I could cry. not going to get my hopes up, but is there anything to do that might save it?

[Lee.]

Erm.. I doubt it, but you could let it dry out and it may work again. I know somebody whos phone came back to life after being "drpped" in a bacardi and coke.

I feel your pain.. I'd be gutted!

[arista]

Take the Battery out.

[Lee.]

No! no!

dont take the batter our anything out.Just leave it for a few days

[Novo]

Yeah take the battery out and blow it with a hairdryer

[Ninastar]

I already have done :bawling: its sitting out in the heat because there are no radiators here :sad:

[Novo]

You have probably saved it then

[Jords]

Mum did this on Mothers' Day, a few hours in the airing cupboard and 2 days switched off and then it worked... good luck lmao (yn)

[Ninastar]

if it ends up working I will become Christian and go to church every sunday

Put it in a bowl of rice. (Dry). It dries it out. Don't ask me how, but it does!

[Boothy]

Dry it slowly. Don't use a hairdryer or anything, that pushes the water deeper intot he phone.

[_Seth]

Yeah take the battery out and leave it.

[Stacey.]

Leave it in the airing cupboard

[Niall]

I heard putting a wet phone in a box of rice is really good for drying it out.

[Iceman]

Leave it in the airing cupboard

This.

[Shaun]

[Jack_]

Leave it in the airing cupboard

This. Clever :amazed:

[Stephanie]

i dropped my phone in water once and left it to dry and it worked.. but then it got all mucked up and all the buttons would take you to the wrong thing. it was so annoying.

[Glenn.]

Put it in the tumbledryer?

[Lee.]

Put it in the tumbledryer?

:laugh3:

[Iceman]

You seem so shocked she came up with a good idea :nono:

[GypsyGoth]

:eek: I hope it comes back to life.

Someone told me to do that after my phone fell into a toilet but I never got to try it, I did wrap it in a towel and leave it on a radiator. It worked the next day but sometimes the buttons would do nothing until I took the battery out and put it back in.

I cried when it happened, but a few days later I did laugh about it :hugesmile:

[Ninastar]

IT ****ING WORKS but the screen is kinda ruined! you can see the water in it but idec I'm just happy it works :D

[Smithy]

just leave it in the sun and the water should evaporate after a few days

[Ninastar]

:D thanks smithy

[Ninastar]

however, I have sunburn :sad:

[GypsyGoth]

Yay! for the phone, but aww for the sunburn :hug:

[Shasown]

Yeah it might just work now but it will die if you dont switch it off and dry it out properly.

Take the battery out and leave it a few days in the airing cupboard or in rice etc.

Happened to my daughter, she dropped it in the bath, put it in the airing cupboard overnight, switched it on the next day and it worked, I told her to switch it off and leave it to dry out properly. She didnt listen and it died totally two days later.

Oh and the really good thing is water ingress isnt covered by warrantee and some insurances dont cover it either. So now her shiny new I-phone 4 is a dead shiny new I-phone

[Ninastar]

why thank you claudia :hug: seriously though Idec about the sunburn!

I will tonight though :sad:

Make sure you take the battery out. that way there is no power to any circuitry, sometimes alrms etc still have power when the phones off.

[Doogle]

if it ends up working I will become Christian and go to church every sunday

^ So, are you going to do this? ;)
