I put my daughters phone through the washing machine! Will it ever work again??

I know the battery is no good. But was wondering if the phone would dry? It is a nokia 7373



Answers:

There is a slim possiblity that it still might work. Don%26#39;t turn anything on, pop the battery out and let the whole thing dry out completely. I know someone who accidently washed their work cell phone in a full load washing cycle and then put it through the hot dryer and it%26#39;s still working! It%26#39;s been about 6 months and I still can%26#39;t believe it. I guess that hot dryer did the trick! Either that or he got awefully lucky!



Like I said, pop the battery off and let the phone %26 battery completely dry out before putting the battery back in and turning it on. Maybe let it dry for a couple of days.



I%26#39;ll keep my fingers crossed for you! omg!! it will not unless you take it to repair. Even after repair your Intergrated Circuit (IC) will be damaged and will rust one day unless they change it.. buy your daughter a new phone. it will not work anymore. I doubt it! You might just get away with it. My friend did the same thing, and managed to get it working, although the sound quality went a bit pear shaped!



If its insured, check whether it is covered for water damage. no it probably won%26#39;t work!! unless it is badly damaged. Oooops



I dropped my phone in a cup of tea %26 it%26#39;s still working!



I%26#39;m sure once it%26#39;s dried out it will be fine! If not then I suggest you buy her a new one! I am drying out my sons Nokia as we speak...yep, washing machine...lol!
