I have an LG KIT phone and dropped in in the bath water careless texting is there a way it can be fixed? It was a euro . phone and my husband will KILL me if he finds out! it was in the water about seconds and I used my blow dryer to dry it off, but all it does it vibrate and light up.


Answer


Turn it off amp put it in a bowl of uncooked rice. Cover it completely with the rice amp let it dry out before you try to use it.
