Dropped phone in water

I dropped my phone in water, but it worked fine for the next couple of minutes, then it started to vibrate constantly and wouldn't stop. i took the battery out and noticed water so i used the rice technique. Is there anything else i can do to save my phone?

My Motorola razr went through 2 cycles of washing machine! I fixed it by removing the battery first, letting it thoroughly dry out using a cold setting on a hair dryer, after opening the battery compartment, folding open the phone and even a bit of sundrying, Another gentler method of drying it is by leaving it on a
UPS system where the temperature wont exceed 45C or so. I was careful not to turn it on soon after I picked it up from the washing machine.
I have heard- but havent tried it- of people successfully using WD20 or one of those silicone sprays on electronic items to dry them out.

No much. probably it already has a short internal.
you can open the pone and try to use a hair dryer to dry out the phone, but I don't think that is going help.

Charging port may be damaged. Take it to your cell provider or repair shop and let them look at it. Could also be the phone is damaged some how. Did you drop it or did it get wet in ANY way?

I was djing at a night club and there was a little bit of crown and coke spilled on the top of it. i cleaned it off and it worked fine, i thought it was no big deal and then the next night when i started...

As a DJ myself, I have seen that before. On a night that the equipment will not be used, UNPLUG ALL CABLES AND POWER, then use an eyedropper to drip a drop or 2 of water on the spindle and manually spin the table a few turns., wait about 5 minutes, then drop a couple drops of rubbing alcohol and again spin the table. Wait a couple hours or over night, and follow with a couple drops of oil. NO MORE THAN 3 DROPS OF ANY OF THESE!!

Takagi TK-JR vibrating noise

Remove your hydronic pump and replace the flexible impeller coupling that couples the impeller blades to the pump motor. make sure you don't do this on a sat or, sunday (i hate house calls then) and, be sure you have a new pump housing gasket before you start the job. Also check the unit for loose pipe brackets

I dorped my cell phone

There's no cure, it's dead, sorry. Water and mobiles don't go together. Give it a worthy burial, say a few nice words and let it go gently to the heavens where mobile souls go.

Try a Nokia next. They are certainly better than LG.
