Re: [NLC] Drip Dry Phone it is alive!
So after taking the phone apart, blowing the water out with compressed air as much as possible, I put it in a jar filled with a desiccant. After a few days the water droplets inside the display unit seemed to dissappear. The moment of truth had arrived. I put the battery in the phone and attached it to the charger. To my amazement the display lit up and showed a charging symbol. I considered that a good omen. Every minute the phone would beep. I looked that up in the manual, all that meant was that the battery was flat... After about 20 minutes on charge (and 20 beeps) I turned on the phone and connected to my local carrier. The phone set its time from the network. So it was successfully brought back from the dead. Only minor issue is a blotching in the display - a reminder of its washing. I did not rinse out the phone with alcohol or distilled water. Does anyone think I should remove the battery and go for a better bath/clean out of the crud - or should I leave well enough alone? Thanks for the suggestions. Bruce ___ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss

Yeah! I did not rinse out the phone with alcohol or distilled water. Does anyone think I should remove the battery and go for a better bath/clean out of the crud - or should I leave well enough alone? Not at this point. Doing that before drying would have increased chances of success, but if you've only got a mild blotch on the screen, you're doing pretty well. -- Bill [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss
