You need to try Silica Gel Packets to dry out your phone. There was a good article on associatedcontent.com that explains how to dry a wet cell phone, iPods, or any electronics.

You need to place your cell phone in a zip lock bag with Silica Gel Packets. Silica Gel will remove all the moisture from the phone and its components, something air drying will not do!

Just Google "Silica Gel Packets" and you will find several companies selling these products. There is also a web site called: http://www.SilicaGelPackets.com that has them.

Plastic strip inside printer

The only plastic strip that is user serviced is the protective strip for the ink cartridge. It comes with all new cartridges, or new printers. You are supposed to pull this strip out for proper cartridge operation (printer will not work with the strip still attached). When you pull it out, be very careful that it doesnt whip and touch your clothing. The plastic strip will be wet with ink, and if it touches your clothing, it will positively NOT come out.

I got my phone wet while travelling abroad so I took out the battery etc and let them dry for a while. When I put them back in the phone seemed fine but the next morning the battery was completely broken,...

You cant try this...get a bowl of dry rice, put the phone in and cover it up, leave the phone in for 48 hrs. Dont touch it.
Sounds like there is remaining moisture. if this doesnt resolve the issue you will need a new phone

I cant acess my setting to calibrate my phone. When i touch the menu button it acts like Im touching the center of the screen. When I try to dial the number using the touch screen it doesnt dial the number...

Ok there might be a battery issue. Or there might need to be a touch calibration reset. To do that go to your settings and select touch calibration and do it again.

ALSO IF YOUR PHONE IS STILL IN WARRENTY AKA WITHIN 1 YEAR OF PURCHASE THEN CALL 1800 801 1101. THEY WILL HELP YOU. YOU WILL NEED YOUR IMEI NUMBER OFF THE BACK OF THE PHONE. IF NOT CALL THE INSURANCE HOTLINE WHICH IS ON THE AT&T WEBSITE.
