http://www.thecellfreak.com/how-do-i...wet-cellphone/ I've had friends drop theirs in toilets before...I'm not going to jinx myself, so I'll STFU about it in my case... Anyone here ever took their cell phone for an inadvertent swim?

I dropped my phone in the toilet once. I fished it out super fast but unfortunately, I tried turning it on too soon, and over time, things corroded. Always turn things off and let them dry completely before using again!

I swam with mine earlier this summer
 Good thing my niece had just upgraded her phone, and her old one was the same model as mine. |

This will work with any electronics. Just make sure that you don't turn them on for a day or two. If you can remove the battery that is the best thing to do as the little blurb suggests. if you can not then just make sure it is off.
That said...don't get your hopes up. If the device is on and lands in water there is a good chance that it is going to be fried before you even fish it out.

Yeah somehow my phone attracts itself to water. Plus we have this fun game in the office where everyone snap each other's phone if you leave it lying out. That doesn't help my phone's life span.

Fell off my dock last week when fishing with some friends and took my Treo with me! Yes, a fair bit of vodka was involved. Ended up swimming around with it in my pocket for about 15 mins. My buddy told me to put it in the dryer like someone else mentioned. I'm like, "It ain't happenin.. there rust coming out the back, acid, and salt water behind the touchscreen." It's gone, ordered a new one this morning. |
