Author Topic: Washed my phone  (Read 867 times)

I left my cellular telephone in my jeans and it went through the wash. Since then it has been in a cup full of rice with a big silica gel pack. It has been sitting there for almost two days, and while it has lost visible traces of being wet, I don't want to try and fire it up if it is still wet inside. What would you guys say would be the appropriate time to take it out?. I might be able to take it apart further and dry it more also.


Clap clap clap.
What phone was it?

It was a cheap-o Samsung Replenish. I was planning on replacing this phone with a Galaxy S4 very soon, but until I can get to the Sprint Store, I'm very limited.



Turn it on
If I do it now and any parts are wet though, it is dead.

Hot.

You should leave it in there for at least another two or three days.

That was one of the first things I did. My vacuum has no ground though, so I didn't want to ruin my phone with ESD either so I was somewhat conservative.
