I did get a new one, I'm just upset that I lost people I went to college with's phone numbers.
Phone guy suggested I try drying the old phone out in rice overnight and see if I can get it to turn on to get my numbers off to put into my new phone. I'm hoping for the best.
Anyone have any success drying out a phone in rice and having it work afterwards (or at least turn on to retrieve numbers)? |
As a matter of fact, I have a friend who periodically drops her phone in the toilet. She then proceeds to rescue it, open it up and blow dry it with her hair dryer. She is often successful, so if the rice technique doesn't work, you can try blow drying it. Hope this helps
