    3 days must do but if you think it was totally under I say 3 days in rice and than 2 days extra in new rice. That's a 5 days. Good luck

    Got my phone back. Water treatment and all. Turned it on. It still shows the black blackberry logo screen then shuts off.

    Plugged it into the charger , turned it on, black logo screen, but now a greenish yellow blinking LED andva yellow lightning bolt, but no red outline of a battery shape. What does the yellow bolt by itself indicate?

    ok...let it charge until LED went green. Went ahead and backed device via BB Link. In the process of wiping and restoring to factory settings to see if it will fix the bootloop. I don't know what else to do. Hoping it works. The screen displays beautifully and its responded to every command so far with the exception of fully booting up. Crossing fingers.

    I cannot believe it.....its fully functional. Even the speakers sound normal after being wet. Only thing is after the restore it seems laggy. I did the update that came through too. Should I just wait it out so the OS can settle in again???

    So far so good....dang, BB's really are built like tanks. The Z30 has survived a swim in the toilet bowl of CLEAN WATER!

    HAPPY DANCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    My Z30 took a dunk last week, I snatched it outta the toilet quickly. Shook it abruptly, and remained patient. No rice, just time. It's still running today. Can't say I've had any problems. At first though, I did see an all blue screen. But again it went away. Oh I used to wonder how ppl did it too. Mine fell outta my shorts pocket. Just some shallow pockets on these shorts tho.

    Oh you wouldn't be reading this post had the water been nasty.

    Very popular dish down here in Louisiana: Dirty Rice

    Go ahead, OP, go ahead. COOK IT!! Just serve it up with some crawfish pie, jambalaya, and gumbo.

    I have the bad habit of falling asleep with a coffee coffee or beverage in hand when surfing the net or going through my email... on several occasions my phone got soaked when the liquid spilled. Using a handheld wet/vac I sucked the liquid and moisture out. I then cleaned any remain residues with a glass cleaning microfiber cloth and MethylHydrate successfully.
