Today is the worst day of my life

I woke up this morning to find my 8525 sitting in my computer chair as usual. Only to reach over and grab it, and ....its sitting in three inches of water. I have no idea what happened, or how it got there. All i know is my phone wont turn on, and is totally dead. Is there ANYTHING that can be done to right this horrid tragedy? Any help would be a gift from god. Thanks

Wow.
Sorry about that.
Let it dry out before trying to use it. Since it's wet, you have nothing to lose by taking it apart to facilitate this. You could dry it faster by using a hair dryer but NOT on the heated setting.

agreed; but let it dry for a day or two before you try, you should also put it somewhere that will provide additional moisture evaporation (gas oven with pilot lights or a furnace room, behind a PC fan or the like). i saved my old Sony S710a by letting it bake in my hot car for about 6 hours while i was at work. just make sure its totally dry before you try, and considering you already voided the warranty with the pool of water incident, you might as well take it apart if you can to make sure its completely dry.

hmm, bad luck.
Try all the above suggestions. But make sure you have disconnected your battery

Tried putting the battery back in after about a good 4-5 hours of being in the sun. All i get is a crackling noise when i try to place the battery to the metal conductors

Ewww.. I know it is stressful for you not to switch on the phone, but doing that will just make matter worst. Since you said that it wont turn on, I presume that you've tried it once (Strike 1), and you did it again 4-5 hours later (Strike 2), which usually others just leave it for at least 1 day (but probably the sun does help).
Can you identify what water is it? Can there be mineral within? Which may cause a short circuit somewhere in the phone. You'll need to open up the phone and clean it up somehow.. either DIY or get some phone shop people to do it. Your warranty is 'washed' anyway.

OK, this comes from my many decades in the electronics industry.
1. PULL the battery. Do not put it back in in few hours.
2. Where did the water come from? Was it really water or? You need to know this. It's real important because mostlikly the PCB is contaminated. Anything that got inside has most likely contaminated the board and will cause shorts, intermitent contacts and the like. Even rain or spring water, it's the minerals...
What you have to do most likely is disassemble the unit. Get a gallon of DISTILLED (not Spring) water. Distilled, also know as deionized is free of all minerals. You are going to have to carefully submerge the board without the LCD in the water and gently rub it with a very soft tooth brush while underwater. Next take it out and put in another bath of distilled water. Agitate it gently. This proces should remove any contamination as long as the offending liquid is not sticky or heavily acidic or base. In the case of the later 2, you are most likely screwed.
Ok, so now you have a wet board. Genly shake the excess water off of it. Turn your oven onto WARM. Nothing above 150 F. Let it warm up and then shut the oven off. Put the PCB in the middle of the oven directly on the rack, close the door and come back 8 to 10 hours later. If the board isn't dry, repeat the steps again.
If you are luck and didn't fry it from trying to power it up, it may work again.
I have saved lots of radio equipment from rain & saltwater submergence this way.
Feel free to PM me if you need to. Good Luck.

I used to have a motorola and dropped it into a bucket of water. Dried out in a few days and it was working fine.

my 8525 recently fell in the sink. as soon as i seen it in the sink i pulled the battery out. rigged the phone up on something in the floor so air could ventilate under and over, set the hair dryer on high (but without the heat) and 5 or so ventilation fans from a desktop pc wired to a 9v battery. let the hair dryer go for about 15 minutes but left the fans on over night. took the phone with me to school the next day and left it in the car during both of my classes. came out put the battery in and powered it up. works just fine now

ive heard the rice thing works, ive alway wanted to flush with alcohol, that would in theory dilute the water and the alcohol would dry out faster.

Ok so heres the deal. I put the battery in. Power up the phone, gets to the vp3g startup screen, then fades to white. Could someone point me in the direction of a tutorial that shows me how to disassemble a Hermes CORRECTLY.
Hopefully ill be able to give it a DI Water bath and breath a little life back into her. Thanks for all the help guys, I really appreciate it

It's drying out slowly. I had a Hermes that did the same thing - eventually getting to the "screen behavior" you describe. I never fully disassembled it. I just let it sit open, with the battery out, keyboard pulled out, and the back off. Eventually (after leaving overnight), it was fine. Worked normal ever since that with one exception.. I had forgotten to pull the SD card. The SD socket never worked again :-(
Moral of the story: don't forget to take out the SD card.

yeah i got lucky. when mine fell in the sink i had the SD card out and in the laptop doing hw. so i guess im really lucky that the sd socket still works

Not worried about the SD card as much... Anyway, Ive popped the back off of my 8525 after removing a couple screws. On the back of the circuit board there is white material that can be wiped off with a little rubbing alcohol and an ear swab. What is that crap? Ill go further in depth here soon once it fully drys. I sure hope I can get this thing running again, birthday is the 13th and would be a nice little gift to myself to get the phone working. Thanks for the help guys

WOW Just look it here...Thats what I call the Power of Unity man. Great piece of work, info. I love all You people. If the world learns anything from XDA developers then there wont be any more human sufferings I am sure..Enjoy friends the power of forum..

If it fades to white, it is still wet.
You need to let it dry a lot longer before trying to use it.

Well, those are either stuff from the water or stuff from your phone that is washed and gathered to form some dangerous circuits (much like coffee water rings, that things tend to get to the edge of waters). These stuff may conduct electricity, hence making your phone goes nuts. Search and destroy all these 'crap' Good luck. Don't try the phone unnecessarily until you are sure that all 'crap's are gone. One of these 'crap' may potentially kill your phone (ok, it is usually not that serious, but just incase )

Sad story, I was lucky with similar story, but much cheaper. I left my Nokia BH-600 Blue Tooth Head set in my panties and give them to washing-mashine. 40 degrees program for 30 minutes ended by wringing on 800 turns/minute
When I found it in the pocket I just left it to wither up and it didn’t worked. So I tried to re-charge it and WOW it works and the battery has normal capacity.

Water Damaged N1

So this weekend the old Nexus took a dip-see with me in the lake. There is hope for those that drop their devices in water or liquids. You have to be on the ball and have a little bit of patience.
As SOON as I jumped in I realized that it was in my pocket, ripped it out, took out the battery and started drying it. I let it sit in a sealed tupperware container with rice for 2 days. Whether or not there's any truth to the rice myth, I was not willing to take any chances.
Wednesday I sat down and completely disassembled the phone. I purchased a contact and head cleaner (basically a solvent that quickly evaporates) and sprayed all the electrical contacts and components within the phone. Carefully reassembled the Nexus One, and she BOOTED!
So, there is hope for those water damaged devices. Act quickly, don't try to turn it on, and you may be good to go
Happy water damaged N1 owner,
Jim
P.S. ALL liquid damage indicators within my phone were set off. This really works.

O rly?
..........

This is good info. Thanks.

I was at the beach and water washed up onto my pocket with my Nexus One in it. It was pretty bad the first day, the screen kept flickering on and off and I put it in a tupperware with rice. Then when I took it out after a day, the WiFi wouldn't work, but then started working later on in the day. Now my speakers don't work for some reason. It would cut on and off while my ringtone goes off, but when I listen to music, it plays for a second and then pauses the song. My headphones still work fine with it though. Does anyone have any idea how I should go about fixing this? (sorry for invading this thread OP)

i've done it 3 times now... heh... rice worked everytime, no disassembly.

was probably a mistake to turn it on before you dropped it in rice.

Why would you even be that close to water at all with your Nexus in your pocket? Did you think nothing was going to happen? Did you forget it was there? Were you saving someone o_0?

This has happened to me, but I thought you were not supposed to close the lid? Condensation has to get out someway besides rice absorbing it. Works for me

And hopefully 4 months down the road I'm not kicking myself in the ass wondering why my device suddenly stopped working and saying 'Damn, maybe I SHOULD have disassembled and cleaned it...'
And to the above poster: I'm not sure you're supposed to put the lid over either. It's been 37 degrees celsius with the humidex for the past few days and I don't have A/C.. there was so much moisture in the air I had no other choice. But it seems to have worked =)

There are much better desiccants out there than rice. Calcium chloride, for one, is easily obtainable as DampRid at just about any grocery store or hardware store. It would be wise to open up the phone and clean it with some isopropyl alcohol, though. Especially the guy who got seawater on his...

I'm sure it wasn't intentional, maybe he thought he took it out already. Be nice dude.

Yeah I would agree there was no need for assembly. Modern electronics are actually very very good when it comes to water. I have about 200 watercooled computers under my belt, and the inevitable leaks that come with them :') Even with deionised water [customer wanted, like an idiot], the worst that happens is it causes a surge, which the mobo force turns off the system. Even then there is NO damage, and just needs cleaning and drying to return it to normal.
It will be the same with the phone, if you can get it off/remove the power, there is abosolutely no reason [other than maybe screen condensing] there would be damage.

Me also, just got back from the dead with my Nexus.
Last weekend I went to a club that had a nice swimming pool and during the night, some idiots pushed me in the water when I was close to the pool. (no one saw who was the idiot).
I got out of the water, and took my phone out from my pocket: it rebooted itself, the screen was flickering and the phone was vibrating hard. Instantly I've removed the battery and put some toiled paper around it.
Went home, put it in the rice, uncovered. Next day, like an idiot, I've tried to boot the phone, which booted until a certain point, then started to flicker and it turned off by itself.
I thought it died completely, but still had a hope for it, and left it in the rice, this time covered for two more days. I've also put inside some little bags with silica (the ones you get in shoe boxes and electronics ones)
Then, yesterday, I've tried my luck and it booted with no problem, now happily working with no issue at all.
I was very close to order a new one
Love this phone!

I'll remember that. Just incase I want to go swimming with my n1.

Just dropped my HD2 down the toilet

I immediately removed it from the water, and desperately tried to remove the back case to remove the battery (its quite hard when the phone is wet) i got there eventually though.
The screen was flickering whilst the phone was still on, and the water sensitive stickers on the battery and phone are both pink. I've blow dried it for about 10 minutes haven't tried to start it back up yet.... any suggestions?

DON'T start it for a few days. Put it in a warm place, leave it to dry for 48-72 hours and pray it works when you turn it on.

yeah just be patient and wait about 3-4 days to dry. but do not put it under direct sunlight

....and wash your hands

Try to put into bag with rice, and leave for couple of days...

put it in a bag of rice or leave out in the open?!?

put your phone into rice and keep bag closed

Basically you just need to make sure you dry it out thoroughly. Don't try to rush this process in a few hours. All the posts about leaving it somewhere warm (like an airing cupboard) are correct. Don't put it on top of a radiator or hot pipe, or in the sun as already suggested. The idea of putting it in a bag of rice is to help draw the moisture out. Never tried this method myself.... You really must be patient with this - managed to save my Touch Pro that got soaked in the rain last year....

okay so i've put the phone the battery and the sim on top of some rice in a bad behind my tv in my bedroom

rice like the others said or if you are a cigar person (or know someone who is) place it in an acrylic humidor w/ humidification beans.......I resurrected a M$ ZUNE my wife dropped in a rain puddle by doing this in my humidor

man, this reminds me of the time I dropped my phone in a bucket of puke from a heavy night. Still worked after I dried and cleaned it up.

"DON'T start it for a few days."
yup ..is correct wait until dry ... "rice" are good for absorb humilities ..
but If I not wrong ..after dry .the speaker of the phone will change ..just like my tytn II drop into "wash floor water", it still can use .. but the speaker sound change ...

Οh man , really bad luck..
hope it goes ok but be patient and let it dry manually !!!

my wife washed my cellphone once (left in pocket after heavy night of drinking). Took the battery out, let it sit on a counter for about a week. Phone recovered though it took the screen a while for the colors to all show properly.
I have read where people put their oven on warm and leave it overnight. I don't think this will hurt the phone since their won't be a power source in it.

Dropped in a sink with the tap running!
I dried it out under a hand dryer, then powered it up straight away. In hindsight this was pretty stupid, but it booted up ok. The only problem being the NAVPANEL would randomly appear and require a reboot. The next day that problem had gone away, and was replaced with a new problem - the Volume down button being jammed on! Also the battery life was reduced to about 10 hours. After a further 48 hours and a blast with compressed air (around the volume buttons) the phone has returned to 100% normal use - even the battery life is getting better, now upto about 36-42 hrs..... but I have bought a replacement for that anyway!!
Can't believe how lucky I was!

[Edit: Just saw you fixed it. Bravo! I'll leave this here anyway...]
Rice is good, unless you have any silica gel kicking about, the stuff you get in electronic packaging in the little paper bags/sachets that say "do not eat".
But yes, definately don't do what the majority do...
"I just turned it on to see if it would work..."
"You turned your phone/laptop on while it was wet... to see if it would work?"
"Yeah... why?"
*facepalm*
Happens about once a week in the PC store I work at. You could also try stripping it after it's dried and going over it with a carbon pen to remove any corrosion/residue.

After removing the battery, SIM, and MicroSD and gently removing any surface water.
One trick I found is to put a phone in the path of hot dry air for 30 minutes to a couple of hours. A clothes dryer vent works wonderfully for this since its temperature controlled (and timed) to keep from destroying the fabric in your clothes, and hot enough to allow water to evaporate. If you have access to your dryer vent hose, unhook it and rest it on top of the dryer and put your phone in the path (at least 4 to 6" from the opening). It's worked for 2 phones so far. One being my wife's Motorola, and one my Touchpro. If you have a dryer with an insert for shoes, you could use that as well, although I would put the phone on something to keep it from vibrating off.
You could use a hair dryer but keep in mind that hair dryers are not designed to be run continuously and the temperature is not technically regulated.
The trick is to get the temperature of the whole phone up to about 130 to 140 degrees and the water will evaporate. I would avoid shaking the water out of the phone or using pressureized air since that will push water into the delicate connectors, keypad matrix, screen, etc.

Let me give you a more scientific approach to your problem, i will try to explain as better as i can since english aint my primary language.
After you drop it in the water, your phone will never be the same for couple of reasons. First of all, when the water will dry, salt will "sit" on the connections and the weldings of the connectors, and that will slowly but steadily eat them. My saying is : " Never trust a phone that was dropped into water/coffee ". For you to be sure of your phone you need to strip it, and clean it with a spray for electrical appliances. Now there are 2 types of those sprays, one with oil and one with no oil in it. For your thing you need the NO-OIL one. Thats to make sure you wont get a loose joint and eventually your phone wont get broken.
If you dont feel like opening your phone and you dont feel comfortable with it, just ignore my post and just dry it out. What is 100% sure is that at some point it will break down, it depends on when though, from hardware to hardware.
Just my 2 cents.

Any time I get anything wet I IMMEDIATELY remove the battery, then I remove anything else I can from it: Sim Card, Memory Cards, etc. I don't like the rice idea because rice ALWAYS ends up stuck somewhere inside. I prefer setting my phone on some foil out in the sun for a bit (provided it's not too hot out) or just leaving it somewhere where it's warm to dry out. DO NOT BY ANY MEANS put the battery back in or turn it on until it is COMPLETELY dry. A minimum of a day if you even want to begin to chance it. If it was dropped in something other than relatively clean fresh water, I would keep everything out of it (battery, sim, memory cards, etc.) and dip it in a cup of distilled water a few times to clean any particles off, then let it dry again completely before turning it on. Just because an electronic gets wet, doesn't mean it won't work. The only way to kill it really is if you power it back on or the battery shorts it.
I went swimming at the lake with my old Nokia 5310 for 10 minutes before remembering it was in my pocket, I immediately took everything out when I remembered and left it in the sun for 8 hours and it worked fine for a year after until I threw it into a wall as hard as I could due to a frustrating girlfriend haha

U may have problems in the future... Since it was submerged in water some components will begin to rust... I suggest u take it to a mobile service shop so they can tell u what to do, or maybe they can fix it...

HTC HD2 more than splashproof.

2 weeks ago it was raining so much that the whole parking was under water.
I jumped to my car and went home. Halfway I discovered that my phone was missing, so I went back and found it on the parking, laying under water for half an hour, 10 cm deep.
When I picked it up, even it was still under water the lock screen went on.
At home, after disassembly the phone, only under the battery cover where a few drops of water, futher the phone was dry. Even the headphone and micro-usb are no leaking path.
I use it now again for 2 weeks and it still works fine, without any trouble.
Bravo for HTC to make a phone, more than spashproof

Yes, htc is the shizz! I just brought mine back to life and everything works after dropping it on the deep side of my pool. On cases like mine, taking it apart right away and putting it on a bowl of uncooked rice for a week(just to be sure) and it will dry it completely!

Alas mine wasn't so lucky, fell in a puddle as I got into the car, grabbed it out, turned it off and removed battery, sim and SD, wiped as much water off as I could with tissues.
Left it for 2 days to dry, nada. Might be that the impact with the ground (wasn't that deep a puddle) killed it.
Embarassingly and luckily I'd only taken insurance out on it that lunchtime!

Wow, that's pretty impressive for a phone. Touchscreen phones are usually prone to most types of damage, but it's good to see being fully submerged in water didn't completely disable the phone.

You lucky guy

Hmmmmmm
I'm a little dubious... I spilled a really small amount of water from a glass on the bedside table onto my HD2. Even though I immediately jumped out of bed, cursed and wiped it dry, the water seeped into it. I could see the water in the LCD (it looked like a shadow that spread across the screen slowly over days). Two weeks later, the digitizer stopped responding to my touch even though the LCD itself still seems to work. I've hard reset the handset and that hasn't helped. I also tried heating up the unit a bit (without the battery) to try to have the water evaporate from it, but that hasn't helped either.
I took the phone into O2 who had their people look at it. Ultimately they said it was out of warranty because of water damage and that I could purchase a replacement (since I don't have insurance on it).
I'm considering trying to replace the digitizer, but it sounds like a lot of fuss and ultimately the phone won't be under warranty.
Annoying... I miss my HD2. I'm stuck with a Motorola Razr at the moment.

You can drop the phone in anything... aslong as the water does not have minerals that are conductive or prone to errosion it will be fine
[OP] just happen to have some clean water falling from the sky
I had a Blackberry Storm that once got submergered in baby oil.. It stopped working and I left it alone for A month or so...One day i picked it up and it started working... The LCD was messed up with Oil in it but other then that it worked...I opened it up and there was baby oil everywhere.... Got some distalled water and let it sit for a day or so to get it clean then replaced the LCD and it worked like new.
Distalled Water is H20 with notthing in it... As clean as water can get... Sine it has no conductive minerals you can drop a phone or PSP and it will work just fine.

Really?
I thought water itself was corrosive to metal? I can't imagine that the rainwater mentioned in the first post would be as clean as distilled water...
Anyway, I was wondering do you guys have have any suggestions? I have this lovely phone that boots up and I can't do anything with.
Should I just wait it out and see if it starts working again.

Heartbreak

The love of my life, my Android phone, fell out of my pocket into a pool of water so I lay her to sleep in a bed of rice in the hope of drying her tears. Will my darling ever again whisper sweet nothings in my ear? Guess only time will tell.
The true question isn't the possible of life after my beloved but can you really put a price on true love. The answer is, of course, yes according to amazon.com.

It should if you did:
-Take out battery sim sd card etc.
-Did NOT try to turn it on after it went into pool.
-A Rice-filled bag with no moisture inside.

I snatched it out of the water immediately after letting out a girlish scream. It was only in the water for a second and was still blaring a podcast when I took it out but I turned it off and immediately took the cover and case apart and removed the the battery, sim and sd card. It is now in a sealed container of rice.

Leave it there for a few days to a week and it SHOULD work.

I dropped my old Sony Ericsson w800i into the toilet a week after I got it.
Just took out the battery and let it dry for a few days and it was fine.
Best of luck to you!

such a sad sad story. I had a single tear run down my cheeck. I'd cry if I did that

I did that once not too bad on the phone but.... my brother dropped his Nikon DSLR in a pool.......... Ah hahahaha .......... yeah that was not a happy ending

I would also open it up to make it dry better. Instructions are in the hardware GPS fix thread.

I bet that pool of water was a regular swimming hole for brown turtles that said, I dropped my old blackberry in the toilet once and watch the led blink all the way to the bottom... just the thought of it makes my heart heart a little. The experience turned out to be good because I gained a whole new level of respect when I brought my little Curve back to life. First, don't panic; worse things have happen in cellular history. Second, carefully take the phone apart and dry whatever you can. Third, may not be a bad idea to try the rice trick. Lastly, pray heard all the previous steps work to bring that little soldiers back to life... good luck

Only with a knights kiss shall she awaken from her deliciously high carb slumber. That and about 4 days to dry.

Well I once dropped my dad's new Nokia e72 in a water barrel and had to fix it quickly so he doesn't end up killing me. So I used a hair dryer, YES, a hair dryer and took the battery, SD, Sim card and basically everything that could be taken off. Then started blowing it dry and kept it for an hour (couldn't wait longer as my dad was nagging on my ass) and when I turned it on, well, lets just say it turned me on with that nokia hand-shaking famous boot.
Eh good times.

I accidentally ran the laundry machien with my ol Síemens i35 in the pocket of my jeans...
Disassmebled.
Dried with hair dryer.
Put back together.
Started up. no problem...

This forum is ridiculous. We should have an android/xda convention. I bet that would be fun.
