first of all you remove the battery from the mobile and dry your mobile in sunlight for some time...assure that your mobile is completely dry then again put the battery into your mobile and switch it on...most of the time it works properly...if not then go to the service center for repair...

There's a little module inside that changes state (or colour) when the phone is exposed to water so when you take it in to be repaired (as you'll probably need to) be honest with the repairer because they will catch you out. I've seen phones work again after being dropped in water (and be fished out immediately) and I've seen them die. You can also try using a hair drier (not too close or for too long - don't get the phone too hot!) but use the cool function not the hot setting. Luck of the draw I'm afraid.

Just Thursday I had a new pair of pants that I tossed in a front load washer to give them a warn look/feel and to check shrinkage after drying. While the washer was going a few mins I hear a thunking, thunk, thunk, OH shish my phone! Front load washer door's locks until done, so my phone went thru the whole monty, wash, rinse, spin.

When I got to it, click the screen button and still had a screen display, a frosty screen, took the batt out right away. Stuck it in a baggie with uncooked rice (rice absorbs moisture) and put it on top of the desktop box above the power supply, where it's the warmest, for the night.

The next day, everything, almost, was working. Everything but connecting a call!

The phone, cost me $200 two years ago, was insured, but I find out it is with a $65 deductable! I could buy a better one for $130 on Friday at Best Buy or wait for the old model replacement to arrive on maybe Tuesday. No brainer.

Transfered contacts to SD card moved SD to new phone, redownload fav apps.

Happy camper, the new phone is really much nicer!

Love my new phone!

So stick your phone in rice, put it some place warm and Good Luck!

Submerge the phone in a bowl of rice as soon as you can. The phone will be working good as new the next day. Works every time.
