remove the back cover and the battery and everything what you can remove,and dry it in the natural air,not with anything for drying,for example dry it in the sun.do not try to switch on a wet phone!only when it is dry!
Unscrew the phone, Get a Methylated spirit and a brush, Bring out the board of the phone and use the methylated spirit to brush off remaining water on phone. Keep under heat to dry off, After board is dried, fix it back and screw back phone.
Am sure after doing this phone will work well. But if phone still doesn't work ,that means water has damage some component inside the phone. You will need to consult a phone technician for assistance. Take care.
The most basic way to check for water damage is to open the back cover and take the battery out. Either on the battery itself or on the phone under the battery there should be a white square or circle. This is called the LDI (liquid damage indicator), if this is still white then there is no water damage. But if this is red or pink there is water damage.
It depends on how badly water damaged the phone is... Nokia dont repair handsets they think are water damaged at all, so they probably just looked at it and didnt even try...
Try taking it to an independant store that offers Phone Repairs, they shouldnt charge you unless they are able to repair the problem.
The biggest issue with water damage though is you could repair the phone, think its working and then find that something else isnt working, like it doesnt ring, etc...
If you want to do it yourself, you should be able to get a dissassembly guide and the relevant tools online, however it is a fidly phone and you could end up damaging other components.
water seems to damage the phone, but it can be repaired at a service centre but wud cost a bit, water damage is not covered under warranty. u may also try keeping ur phone in sunlight before giving t for repair....it helps.
Turn your phone off for at least a day. Dry off your phone if you haven't already. Take out the battery, dry out the inside of the phone. If you have a sim card, take that out and leave to dry. Leave the battery out of the phone for a day as well. Put it back together after a day and try to power it on. If it doesn't come on, try plugging it in without the battery in. If it works that way, you simply need a new battery.
If this doesn't work you're probably going to have to get a new phone. Your cell phone provider will be able to tell if it's water damaged, so check with them to see if they replace water damaged phones.
