Its a good update just keep in mind the issue might worsen of course if water was able to reach the internals and start to corrode. Not knowing a thing about it I would imagine this might happen but it should take a loooong time. Still a good sign you are able to use it so soon.
Coach, and I am no expert on this, but I think you may be doing
your phone more harm than good. Four hours really is not nearly
enough time for the phone to dry out. By running it before it does
you run the risk of damaging the internally circuitry of your phone.
That totally sucks. I have you beat though...My wife got a new 8830 as her company phone and dropped it in a toilet full of pee...NASTY...Phone was fried and there was no way I was going to touch it! LOL
When I had Sprint, there was no limit to how many insurance claims I could do within a specific time frame. I think I did like 4 or 5 on my Fusic within a month or so, the phones they would send me would stop working, or have some annoying bug or another, so the local store just kept doing claims and getting me replacements. I hope your BB recovers... I've only had mine a months and I cried when she fell 4 feet off the kitchen table the other night (survived with not a scratch thanks to her silicone outfit)
i would call and ask. once i broke/lost my phone on verizon two times in one year and it was covered. there's a deductible you have to pay so hopefully it won't be a problem
I dropped mine in a my friend's water bowl for her cat. I ripped the battery out immediately, dried it the best I could.
For the next 2 days I battled with it. I'd start it up, and it'd do nothing but vibrate, no screen, nothing. Then after a day or so, I'd get the screen, but the buttons would sporadically decide not to work.
I was on the verge of trying the rice thing, but my blackberry battled back. It's alive and running fine.
I did a memory wipe, I knew I'd loss must apps and stuff. But I lost my NFL on sprint but since got that back. Now I lost my docs 2 go and am having a hard time getting it loaded on my Curve 8330 from DM app loader! I'm gonna try to download no success yet so if any one has an OTA link for docs 2 to free ver. Let me know please

You would have had to register the sw at some point of having on your phone before the wipe etc which I'm sure you know.
You might try emailing them and explaining your case, they might help you out with a dl. They make up to five dl instances available for reg. users so ya never know.
