communications are down, Sir!

dropped my blackberry in the toilet this morning. As most of us older guys know, once we start the pee process we are commited till the bladder is empty. So, I just watched my phone play submarine and tried to avoid pissing on it directly. It is now dismantled and submerged in dessicant, but i have little hope it will ever turn back on.

 

eww

 

Yikes....Good luck. What are you using for a desiccant??

 

Sorry about your phone

 

This stuff we use in the crates turbine engines get stored in. it must be good stuff!

 

Solid Call....Hope that works out.

 

thanks all for the condolences!

 

sorry to hear this happened
Ask Chris4x4 he's an expert at fixing phones

 

Lame..... dude....
You should've reached in there and got it out and then continued to pee.
If you're lucky, you might be able to save it.

My mother-in-law dropped her Env3 in the toilet. Removed battery, and just let it dry out and blew a lot of air in & around it.... it's fine now.

 

There was an article about this in Pupluar Mechanic (or equivalent) magazine. They say to turn it off, dismantlke it and use rice as the dessicant (assuming yoiu haven't got access to a better product, like the OP has).

Phones have a habit of dropping out of shirt pockets when bending over. I was bending over to scoop the dog's poop this week and realized that my phone was in my pocket so took it out. Something else that was in there fell out and landed in the pile of poop. And without going into too much detail this early in the morning, the poop was of a consistency that would have meant that the phone would have gone 'splash'

 

at least it wasnt poop

 

maybe put it in a bowl of rice? sux dude.. ive had that happen... i jst went and got a new phone. no way in hell was i going to put that thing up to my ear again. ...it was a p.o.s. any way... no pun intended

 

damn thing works now! after all day of heating it. Had problems putting the shell back together requiring lots o glue, but at least its operational again!

 

at least it wasn't jerzey. glad it works now.

 

Sweet... now hopefully you don't have to look forward to a lingering odor!

 

so what were you doing pissing with your phone out? i mean i can understand talking while you poop because its more ninji like, but while pissing? unless you piss sitting down?

 

I was multitasking

 

AHAHAAHAHHAHAHAHAAH you couldnt just turn and pee in your shower? LOL!OLOL! o MAN!

 

Good to know, I have the same phone, lol. Hopefully that'll never happen tho because I'd be tempted to flush it & walk away as much as I love phones anyway.

 

you cant stop peeing as you age? weird
