Just dont turn it on for a minimun of a few days! Otherwise you may short the board out. IT is possible to survive but it must be 100% dry

Glad he's going to be OK bel but just checking, was he holding your phone whilst it was being washed

Take as much off the phone as you can... back plate, face, remove battery (do this bit asap)... then put it in the airing cupboard for a few days.

You may have to get a new battery but it may survive as long as it's thoroughly dried out.

Good luck!

I dropped mine down the loo once take it all apart and leave it to dry out. last week i poured a glass of pepsi on my lap top, it worked for a couple of days then died.

Hope your baby boy is ok, now you can give him a bit of tlc.

Iv left it in the hands of hubby, if anyone can fix it he will

Phones can survive if you're a bit lucky.
Strip the battery out and dunk it in lukewarm distilled or de-ionised water to get the soluble residue of the washing powder/liquid out, do that a few times then leave it to dry slowly in an airing cupboard. A couple of days later it might work.
I've known a few people who've had a bit of luck with this, usually beer of pee.

And you thought your day was bad

So you think you're having a bad day. The following is taken from a Florida newspaper:

A man was working on his motorcycle on his patio and his wife was in the house in the kitchen. The man was racing the engine on the motorcycle and somehow, the motorcycle slipped into gear. The man, still holding the handlebars, was dragged through a glass patio door and the motorcycle dumped onto the floor inside the house.

The wife, hearing the crash, ran into the dining room, and found her husband laying on the floor, cut and bleeding, the motorcycle laying next to him and the patio door shattered. The wife ran to the phone and summoned an ambulance.

Because they lived on a fairly large hill, the wife went down the several flights of long steps to the street to direct the paramedics to her husband. After the ambulance arrived and transported the husband to the hospital, the wife uprighted the motorcycle and pushed it outside. Seeing that gas had spilled ! on the floor, the wife obtained some papers towels, blotted up the gasoline, and threw the towels in the toilet.

The husband was treated at the hospital and was released to come home. After arriving home, he looked at the shattered patio door and the damage done to his motorcycle. He became despondent, went into the bathroom, sat on the toilet and smoked a cigarette. After finishing the cigarette, he flipped it between his legs into the toilet bowl while still seated.

The wife, who was in the kitchen, heard a loud explosion and her husband screaming. She ran into the bathroom and found her husband laying on the floor. His trousers had been blown away and he was suffering burns on the buttocks, the back of his legs and his groin. The wife again ran to the phone and called for an ambulance.

The same ambulance crew was dispatched and the wife met them at the street. The paramedics loaded the husband on the stretcher and began carrying him to th! e street. While they were going down the stairs to the street ! accompan ied by the wife, one of the paramedics asked the wife how the husband had burned himself. She told them and the paramedics started laughing so hard, one of them tipped the stretcher and dumped the husband out. He fell down the remaining steps and broke his ankle!
