SOURCE: Olympus VG 120 has a white line across the miidle

This line appears when you take pics in the screenviewer? Also in the pc monitor when you transfer the image?

If just occurs in the screen camera, sound like a problem with the LCD screenviewer; if you have the same problem in the pc monitor view, could be a problem with thew CCD Image Sensor. The CCD Image Sensor isnt a job that you can do it, I suggest visit your techinician service or apply if has underwarranty.

Hope this helps.

SOURCE: dropped my brand new olympus VG-140 on the ground

Lens errors are fairly common. Usually it's sand or grit interfering with the lens extension mechanism. Or the camera's been dropped with the lens extended. Or the camera has been powered on, but the lens had been blocked preventing its extension. Or the battery ran down with the lens extended ...
Here are some troubleshooting steps that you can try that may (or may not) correct it. They only seem to work for less than 40% of the lens errors, but if the camera is out of warranty (or repair cost approaches that of the camera), they're worth that try. Some of the later steps do involve some risk to the camera, so carefully weigh your options before deciding to conduct them.
And here's a 16 minute video summary of the info shown in the link. But note that the article link above goes into even greater detail than this video:

I have an Olympus VG-120. How do I physically update the firmware on my Olympus VG-120 camera? Thanks.

Do you have your user guide or owner's manual? Read that thoroughly and you will have no problems. If you don't, get one from the manufacturer - search their website and download.

My olympus camera won't charge properly

If the camera battery is more than 3 - 4 years old then the battery could be worn out. Rechargeable batteries have a finite number of charge and discharge cycles and will lose their charge capacity over time, i.e. won't charge to 100% and gradually the charge reduces until the battery won't charge up at all. OR The battery shows a 100% charge but when the adapter is disconnected the battery drops off to zero capacity in a very short time. If the battery drops to an unacceptable charge level then the battery needs to be replaced. Rechargeable batteries will fail if stored in a discharged state for long periods.

Olympus camera got wet

Yes, there is hope. remove everything you can from it and leave all of the access panels open and then leave it in a warm dry place for a couple of days or a week. The problem is that you have turned it on, this means that there is a very real possibility that you have shorted something inside. Good luck.
