Oh My Phone!!

So just when I thought that technology was finally becoming my friend, I was wrong. As I was diong my hair in the bathroom the other day I knocked my phone off of the counter and into the toilet. I grabbed it out of the CLEAN water, and began to dry it. I used a hair drier, and it would turn on but the speaker would not work. I looked into getting a new phone, but a new one, that will probably be outdated in 3 days, would ave been $300. So, after several hours of drying it out, my phone works better than before!! I don't knwo how that works, but it doesn't shut off anymore.

Haha oh well that is ridiculous! I drop my phone a few times on the ground and it stops working! I can't believe that it still works even after you dropped in the toilet! At least you don't have to spend $300 and get a new phone then and your phone will last until your plan is up for a new one!

haha....thats great. I was working with some elementary kids at a summer camp about 3 years ago. A few kids wanted me to take a pic of them while they were swimming in the pool. I took the pic, then one of them asked to see it. So me, being an idiot, let him see the phone and he dropped it in the pool. I took it apart and let it dry for days.....but it was never the same. So...your lucky.

I was in the same situation last year on Christmas day. But, I was washing my hands and I knocked my phone into the toilet as well! I was so mad, but I did dried it out with a hair dryer for about 5 minutes, and my phone still works perfectly to this day! The worst thing was that I just got the phone about 2 months prior to it falling into the toilet! And, I think it's a little ridiculous that a phone costs $300, and I don't even know if insurance would cover water damage. But, I'm glad your phone still works, and if you're lucky, it will stay that way!
