AND IT LIVES!
hah i was surprised at myself for how non hesitant i was to reach in and grab that sucker soooo fast
lucky for me it was in a clean toilet in my home
anyways
void sticker didnt even get touched
immediately ripped out the battery
let it sit in paper towels for a bit
and then put it in a warm place near a heater just not very close
two hours later i dared to turn it on and im totally safe ^_^
its been a few days now with no problems at all!
you should put it in a bowl of dry rice just in case
does it feel nice to the face? haha glad it survived. Sure way to know if you have the peeling screen issue. Seems like yours is sealed 100000% no dust for you!

I think you two may be the first people I've seen mention their sexual orientation on XDA, lol...
I dropped my Treo 600 in a freakin lake about 2 months after getting it. I dove in and got it, threw it in the boat and it was dead, dead, dead. Took it home and it sat on the counter the remainder of my vacation. At first you could see the unit exhibiting small signs of life and eventually it came back and worked 100%. Sometimes miracles happen
lol funny thread
[x] would read again
Wow, I'm surprised your Nexus One still works dude.. guess HTC's testing process did do some good. Or, you just got extremely lucky somehow.
On an off-topic side note, did anyone notice in the video where the Nexus One fell, the screen did not crack? I assume this was an almost final version of the product? Why though, does when people drop their phones on the concrete it still breaks? If HTC went through this rigorous testing process, why are phones breaking so easily?.. Of course glass breaks easily, but did the material they dropped the phone on was not as dense or hard enough as concrete? Or was it simply the multiple angles they tried..

In the video it looks like the phones are dropped from what appears to be rather less than hand-holding height, onto a surface that appears to be slightly rubbery. Concrete tends to be rather unforgiving no matter what you drop on it.
In December, I dropped my HTC Magic into a kid's swimming pool, left it to dry for one day and it's still in great working condition today =)
Did this exact same thing to my old Nokia 8190 back in the day, and the bowl wasn't "fresh". Phone came out fine other than the battery life dropped to 6-8 hours of standby, ended up carrying a spare in my wallet.
Oh lol, nice reaction tho..

OOOOhh Myyyyy Goooosshhhh I would have totally gone hysterical.
I had a google Ion that I paid toooo furkin much for and dropped the bloody thing on the pavement and scuffed it - I nearly had to have counselling I was so gutted.
Its excellent to know it wasn't killed, was the screen off when it went in?

Hmm, could be worth testing not-dogs, if its the protein that makes the real ones work then they should work just as well as the real thing!
Edit - *ponders* I bet theres a niche market for vegetarian alternatives to meat stylii, , , *hmmmm*
i just tested a chunk of beef from my pasty (really!!!) and it flippin worked!
did leave a bit of a greasy smear on the screen. this idea needs some tweaking

Do you use a meat stylus to engage in textual intercourse?
I ventured out last night and it was cold, cold, cold!
I had two pairs of gloves on and my phone rang.
I wasnt going to take them of so I slide unlocked and answered with my nose!!!!!!!!!!!

Korean sausages (and Japanese ones) are wrapped in plastic. They are not greasy at all. You'll need to unwrap it before you can eat it. It is a popular snack for kids.

But it won't work when they're not unwrapped, right?
I can't believe we're actually discussing the use of sausages as a stylus replacement on two pages now...

Anything would be better than the capacitive stylus for the ip**ne that Maplin sells.

Who is the idiot designer who thought it would be a good idea to design it so it wobbles from side to side when trying to use it on a flat surface....... really..... really HTC ?

I'm guessing you do not want to use a case? I'm using the Capdase Alumor Case and it's great and the phone doesn't wobble if I put it down to type on it.
Hello guys, good night.....

the camera design really suxx ;(
but hey.. i found out that the lens ins under the main cover, and that thingy wich makes our device wobble around is just a protection.. is this possible? so we could probably just crack it away.. but im too scared to do it :333
If i put mine down. I put it on top of the leather case it came with and it doesn't wobble when used!

ha ha really funy
nighty nighty
in a week I'm gonna be going to a concert. I need to get my phone waterproof prior to the concert. I'm gonna go cheap easy and efficient. my initial idea was use 2 condoms just to prevent liquid from getting in on the phone. then I started to think I'll need the camera to take pictures and video but theres condoms covering the camera and taking away from the clarity. Its there any easy easy way to achieve this.

Isnt there lube in most condoms ? Wouldn't that mess up something? It's been a while since I used one,probably explains my three kids existing

Yes, most do. But, you can get "dry" condoms. Problem with those is that they really aren't clear.
Double seal ziploc bag would do the OP better.
(see, this post/thread has nothing to do with modding...hehe)
Yeah.. I was going to say not go the the ones with lube lol...
That would be funny
A good clean Saran Wrap job may work. Its Cheap to try. Test it out. It may cost you a few feet of clear plastic wrap. a couple layers may do the trick
shrink wrap like you put over your window in the winter time at least those of us who live up north

A vacuum sealer (the ones for food)...they heat seal. Or dip it in hot wax. (No seriously...don't do that).

yeah, shrink wrap would work well. I used to mess with one at my old job, if you find a place that shrink wraps, they might even be nice and just do it for you, I imagine you can still use the touch screen without difficulty too. What on EARTH is intended to happen at this concert? I've been to a few with my vibrant and it was never at any risk of being submerged in water?? Ha

Well, sounds like all he wants to do is avoid it getting wet from rain. And it would do the trick. But, these would do it even better. I know for a fact that these work, as I have used them before when kayaking.
Hey guys, I was hoping someone could give me some advice:
I was watching some Jersey Shore reruns on my G2 and my phone started to get really hot so I ran some cold water over it from the sink. Now it won't even turn on or anything. Is it possible that the CPU fried from overheating? Please help!
Did it ever cross your mind that water and electronics don't mix?
EDIT: Actually, I thought it over... why don't you tape a sponge to it?

Take your phone apart (battery cover, battery, phone body) and stick the pieces into a small container of UNCOOKED rice. Let it sit overnight.
Try to power it back on tomorrow.
It is unlikely that you overheated it to the point that it fried the CPU, but the water damage is much more likely a culprit of it not turning on.
Were you overclocked or were you having a Jersey Shore marathon? I have watched entire movies on my DZ while clocked at 1.2 and didn't have heat issues.
This phone was not damaged by overheating or water damage. It was damaged by the Situation!
Drumroll......
Crickets.....
Snookie fuct up your phone.
trawls gon trawl.
Well there's your problem right there
You watched Jersey Shore. This proves my theory that nothing good can come from watching those tards
Try running some heat over the cold sink water that you poured on your G2.

If you seriously did what you said you did.................................well, I am stunned & you have 689 posts on this forum.
However, the uncooked rice suggestion is the best solution but I would not be in a hurry to turn it on for a few days. 2-3 days at least.
the g2 is allergic to water, but that rice may help

Where the hell is the laughing smiley when you need it. If this isn't a joke then there is no way I can remotely try to be nice and give a suggestion. It's like saying my tv was dusty so I gave it a shower.
3-18-11 edit: So I took a day to think about it and I'm came up with the best solution. Get some rubbing alcohol (90% not the crap 70% stuff) and put your phone in it, battery too just in case it's waterlogged also. Let it soak completely through for 2 hours and it will suck out the water. Not you need to evaporate it very quickly so preheat your oven to 550 F. Put your phone in there for 45 minutes and you should be good to go my friend.

Its not water damage. The G2 is to broken for that. I was usin mines in the shower yesturday because my Defy screen was dusty.
With 600+ posts you would think they knew that when the phone overheats you put it in the washer machine on a double cycle set on cold. So I am not surprised to hear the phone does not work now...Dumbass.
