Oh bugger...

Taken out the battery? Should've done this immediately really.

It's ok, the strip turned blue. Your iPhone is preggers and will pop out a brand new one in 9 months time!

Don't you have to pay 400 pounds for the upgrade though?

 

[AtticusFinch]

But more importantly

Put it in Microwave on full for 5 mins, let it rest and repeat. lol

I like the above idea, but feel it may be flawed

More importantly - what the hell were you doing with the phone in the toilet in the first place?

 

[Cosimo]

Is there not a app for this kind of thing?

LOL It's called Resurrection. Works a treat on dead and wet phones, the trouble is....

Right, and how would the OP have managed that?

 

[koolpc]

Apparently he was trying to flush the crap out of it!! lol

I found out the same things when my clumsy friend spilt a glass of wine on me, but it's not the end of the world, you don't have to pay full price for a new iPhone, I paid £135 for mine when it broke. Mind you that was a 3Gs, I would probably have to pay a lot more if it was my new iPhone 4

 

[craptakular]

Did you have to fish past your poo to get it out?

 

[bledd]

Remove battery asap

put in a tub of rice, in the airing cupboard

 

[psd99]

For the OP:

GUTTEDDDDDD

 

[Casdawer]

Was it insured?

No

Will insure my next one though!

Did you have to fish past your poo to get it out?

P.S. it was clean water, not dirty water!

 

[MikeHunt79]

No

Will insure my next one though!

Oh dear... As said your best bet if to take it apart and disconnect the battery, let it all dry out, there's a chance it may be fixable if not just stick it on ebay.

It's surprising how much water damaged iphones go for on there...

 

[MattTheTall77]

iPhones are notoriously sensitive to water damage. I would be very surprised if it's not completely ****ed.

When a friend and I got caught out in heavy rain on Skiddaw his Blackberry was buggered but my iphone recovered! So the iphone isn't as bad as some lol

 

[Kazz]

Aha, so that's how iPhones are made...

 

[Django x2]

Buy this and you wont have to worry again!

[Casdawer]

Well, just in case I've bought a HD7 (WP7)

Got a 14 day return period so if the iPhone survives, i can take it back.

 

[King85]

If it was switched on when it went in i'd say it's done for, I dropped mine in a cup of tea and it didn't fare well.

 

[CharlieAlbert]

hair dryers work a treat!!

Most hardcore phone I have ever owned.

An old-school Nokia with the monochrome display (3210, 3310 and 5210 etc) are where it's at for hardcore phones, your iPhone may be exceptional for an iPhone but in general as phones get more advanced they tend to become less resistant to damage. I know of people who'd regularly play keepy-uppys with their Nokia and it was still fine - the 5210 is a bit of a cheat though as it comes with a rubberised/splash-proof case)

If it was switched on when it went in i'd say it's done for, I dropped mine in a cup of tea and it didn't fare well.

How big are your cups of tea? An iPhone is a good four or five cm wide isn't it so you'd need pretty good aim or to be damned unlucky.
