if you have a frost free freezer, wrap it in paper towels, and freeze it, it will remove the moisture, then you can use it. i dove into the pool with my phone in my pocket when I was mowing the yards…it’s an LG and it still works.
cleokaya- actually it will work again. Remove the battery and the sim card and soak it in rubbing alcohol, then allow to dry thoroughly. I got this tip from a friend of mine that is a diving instructor. Personally, I’ve never dropped my cell phone in the toilet.

I’m impressed! Poncho IS tall enough to enjoy the china bowl. But where does he keep a phone? And who does he talk to?

He’s been shown talking to his buddies. Where he puts it I don’t think I want to know! Thank goodness I’ve never done this to my phone!

I have to send this to my sisters. That is where their phones go to die.

First rule, Poncho, put your phone down before you start drinking from the… toilet.

This happens to me at the drinking fountain, too.

Terry if it ever does happen to you, you might just as well flush. It won’t work, it will never work again. Sigh.

My wife tried the rice technique with no luck, hopefully she doesn’t have a chance to try the last two methods. Good ideas though.
#1 redskins fan, haven’t seen you around for awhile. Nice to see you back.
