So my brand new LG QWERTY keyboard phone was either very thirsty or suicidal this morning because it decided to jump out of my bag and into a deep puddle of muddy water.
Seriously, I think I saw a tad pole swimming around in the flip screen. My mom said it could just be a new fancy feature of the phone, like a 3-D screen saver. Funny, but doubtful, mommy.
My dad suggested I put the phone in the toaster oven to dry it out and my father-in-law suggested I take the battery out and stick the sopping wet phone in a bag or jar of rice. Both very intriguing suggestions I must say and I would have tried them had I not freaked out, drove as fast as I could to the Verizon store and, to my chagrin, replaced the phone.
Needless to say, the situation was a huge pain in the ass and it was a costly one to boot as I didn't have insurance on the phone.
I do now.
Just out of curiosity, does anyone have any other suggestions for fixing a wet phone?

I dropped my phone in water one time, and took it apart and took a hair dryer too it and then let it sit over night. It worked atfer cominpletely drying out.
The rice and toaster oven are all very good ideas.
I like to set my wet phones on top of the dryer while its on to warm my phone.
