Fortunately for me I don't talk on the phone when I'm in the bathroom. But I know how I'd vote.

Grab it as fast as you can, drain the water out while taking the battery out, then put it in the fridge for a few days, this will dry it out. TRy it then, it may work fine. Don't try to use it when it's wet.

wave How have you been? Haven't talked with you in a long while.hug

Yes, it was 2 years ago tomorrow when I had my cell phone in the back pocket of my jeans. I went to use the restroom, dropped my drawers and out popped my cell... straight into the toilet.

Without hesitation I reached in and grabbed it, dried it off and made the BIG MISTAKE of BLOW DRYING it. It killed my phone.

DO NOT BLOW DRY or HEAT in any fashion.

I went to the internet for the answers...

If your cell phone gets wet, take it apart, removing battery and sim card etc and place all into a bag full of rice. Leave it for a day or two and wella... your phone will be dry and will work fine.

A couple of weeks ago we were on the lake in kayaks. My friend capsized his boat which had the camera onboard. The camera got wet. I dried it as best I could until we got home. I removed the memory card and I then placed it in a bag of rice and forgot about it for a week. Removed the camera and it works fine.

RICE, it absorbs moisture!professor
