1. I dunno.. but I have washed a thumb drive twice in the laundry now |

and I believe it still works. Maybe the phone will survive too?

Long story, but in the end the phone was dead. Had to replace it.

3. Mine survived my son tossing it in the pool |
|
but then it died a few months later when my aunt dropped it in a toilet. It you take it apart as much as you can and don't use it until it's totally dry it may survive.

air dry. You can use a hairdryer (lo or no heat) to accelerate the process. The odds of survival are higher than you might think. I just hope this isn't an Erikson.

and ever since then the display is faded. I don't know how to get it back to normal. But it still works, just hard to see the display.
