Act fast and save your mobile phone from ruin, if your phone gets soaked.
These days your phone is your life, well for teenagers anyway, they won't leave home without it.
Here is a little story. Once upon a time in far away place...oops, I started to drift off then. Right I had lost my phone and searched for it everywhere but could not find it. Just before I was about to report it as being lost or stolen, I emptied the washing machine only to find the phone soaked and still in my pocket. I had mixed emotions, great I found my phone and sadness because it was not working anymore.
I did not know what to do, should I phone a friend, with what, I wondered. I managed to speak to a friend and they told me something they had heard of, but had not tried themselves. I was desperate so I did what they had suggested and was very happy with the result. I got my phone back working in no time at all, it was not the same as it was but I could make and receive calls and get my saved numbers from my phone book.
If any of the following have happened to you then follow the instructions below and you too maybe as lucky as I was.
Mobile wet Mobile in water Mobile in sea water (salt water) Mobile in washing machine In almost any safe liquid
My recommendations are:-
1. If the phone is not off SWITCH IT OFF IMMEDIATELY.
2. Remove casing, remove battery and remove the chip (Sim card).
3. Wash it thoroughly with clean water to get rid of any impurities such as salt etc.
4. Place close to a heat source (see below) ideally for approximately 48 hours, try the phone earlier if you need to but the longer it is left the more successful it will be.
Note on heat source. Obvious but necessary, the heat source used must not be anything that will melt the phone. Do not place any heat source too close to the phone. What do you do if you do not have a heat source of some type. You must keep the phone dry and at room temperature or higher. A list of acceptable heat sources are below.
Airing cupboard Table lamp that gives off some heat 60-100watt bulb. (not energy saving) Radiator Blow heater Sun
