I was at a stag on Saturday night. Long story short my Tour ended up sitting in a glass of gin and tonic up to just below the trackball for about 15 mins until I noticed it there. It turned off and would not turn on after like 10 batt pulls. eventually it flashed the clock on the screen a few times then bbm came up for a random second. I gave up on it threw it in the pocket and went on with my night. The next morning two batt pulls and all is well works like new. The best part is all the stickers that change color when wet are still fine none changed color because it was not submerged enough.
Totally Useless post just thought id share it with you guys
If ur phone gets wet u should be pullin the battery asap and letting the phone dry out in a container of rice. Electricity doesnt flow very well when there is liquid on the circuitry it is trying to go through.
That's funny because i was gonna start a thread stating the same thing
I purchased a New Lawn Mower that i had to take back
I was informed by the store that i needed to drain all the liquids out of the Mower before i could bring it back
While i was listening to Slacker Radio on my phone i got a call from a friend
While talking on the phone i made a mistake and dropped my phone in a bowl of oil
I quickly got off the phone wiped off the phone and began to take questions from people who asked all day do you smell oil
I called My Provider and they informed me that i was covered from liquid damage
My wife suggested that i grab some wet wipes and lightly wipe the phone and wait a couple of days before taking it back
I was very reluctant because this is my second tour and up until Oilgate i had no problems with the second tour
i'm happy to say we ogt rid of the oil smell and all is well in blackberry land
Kind of funny a few yeas ago I dunked my razor when I was changing oil in a large generator, work fine just took forever to clean and still would sweat oil out for quite a while
