accidents

I've spilled half a bottle of extra strong industrial cleaner on mine. Thought that was it's last day... But after reading some helpful stuff online,I took it apart and cleaned it and let it dry for a while. Worked fine ever since! Of course,the connection sucks form time to time but that's due to me dropping it countless times:)))))

I usually drop my phone from my lap, from my desk, from the shelf.....thats when i have forgotten about it and accidentally drop it and stuff. My puppies started chewing at it (they were teething that time) while we are still in bed and I'm still sleeping and they soon wakes up. The antenna started to turn loose and eventually got broken. With all these happening, my phone is still fine......It is Samsung

Hey, I dropped one cell phone from a third floor window once and it still worked fine afterwards except for a little scratching sound in the background when dialing out. I've had a friend who washed her cell phone in the washing machine in her pants, I don't believe that phone worked after that. Good topic I'm sure a lot of people have had accidents with their cell phones.

My cell phone accidentally fell on the floor while I am fixing my bed. It still did work since that the fall is not that high or big. lolz

I have dropped mine in a cup of tea (or coffee--dont remember which) that I had in the car with me one time... It did actually work once it dryed out, but the buttons all stuck after that :)

i have dropped my new cell phone a few times and it still works great. thank goodness i cant' afford a new one.

My husband did drop his cellphone into the commode of toilet as well few years back. Luckily that this happened after flushing and the water in it was still considered to be clean so he quickly grabbed the phone out and send for repairing. It still worked for quite some time after being repaired. Of course now he is using a brand new one.

My mobile phone survived going down the toilet, it survived being dropped in a rock pool of salty seawater, and it survived numerous cups of tea and coffee. But the day I dropped it in a jug of vinegar when I was pickling vegetables it had had enough and stopped working. I guess the acid did for it's insides.

it also happened on me lol it slips right out of my back pocket and thank god that it's still working and i'm using it until now

Sorry to hear that your wifs cell phone fell in the toilet. Mine has fallen to the floor, but never in the toilet. Yes it worked again.

My husband dropped his in the ocean. He lost not one but two to the salty sea.

I have had the same cell for three years.

Once me and my friends were enjoying at the beach we suddenly planned to have some fun in sea water after a while i realise that my mobile is in my pocket and we were fully clothed. When i see my mobile it was completly wet. But its still running as it is. If something like this happens with you you can do like this. First of when you see your mobile dipped in water never operate any of your mobile keys simply just simplyremove your battery to switch off your mobile dont even try to operate switch off button. Then if you can open up your cell phone open up and give some time to dry it totally. May be you can try a air blower or drier that you use for your hair. It is necessary to make it completly dry including the internal parts that is why if you can open up its good. Then after it is totally dry you reassemble your phone and take your hands on your cell.

Mine was just recently found in a puddle of water on top of the stroller (teenagers) and it works for the most part now. The speaker stopped working so it stays on vibrate.

I dropped my old phone in my pond one year. I took the battery out, let it dry and it was fine. Now hubby, totally different story. He lost his at work, ran one over with his truck, dropped it in a puddle, and none of them would work afterwards. Did your wife's phone work after the toilet?

i dropped it

During my vacation, I stayed in a five star hotel by the beach. I was wearing my summer outfit which consists of a haltered top, a puffy boardshorts and a pair of flipflops. I road the banana boat and the scorching heat of the sun made me want to jump off the water as soon as possible. When the boat stopped, I jumped quickly and submerged unto the water. I was swimming and even did the freestyle and butterfly strokes. Little did I know, my top of the line cellphone was inside one of my pockets. I tried blow drying my cellphone inside my room but it still did not work. I was so upset. I was not able to enjoy my vacation because of that tragic incident. I hope it does not happen to anyone else. I would like to leave a friendly reminder to everyone. Make sure that your pockets are empty before swimming.

Being a firefighter I have learned that cellphones are as a general rule not waterproof. However there is one that is waterproof and floats. Maybe you should get her one of those. Mine worked, guess it got more on it than in it.

I can recall dropping not one but 2 in the toilet. One in a cup of tea. And my lovely sister got of the pool and sat on another. Dropped one in a mud puddle and ran over it. One from the toilet worked. The other led to another phone. I later on in life dropped it on tea. Got a repalcement for it and a short week later my sister soaked it. The one that fell in the puddle still worked to my surpirse. It was an old Nokia ugliest but i think the best one Ive had yet. it was my first one. Then I can recall breaking a few... I will say its cheaper to get insurance on your phone.

i once dropped my cellphone in the toilet also.. well it lost the colors and the screen got all messed up but i could still use it! well i bought a new one because a cellphone without a screen is like soccer without a ball =)
