If you took it out from the toilet very quickly.... there's some possibility it survives, I wish you luck!

Leave that battery out for a good day or two in that warm place, take the phone further apart if you feel competent/confident enough to. You could also spray it with WD-40 to drive the moisture out (Just don't get any on the microphone as it can kill them!) and you shoud hopefully be lucky, especially as you've done all the right things like take the batt out

Don't have any wd 40 and im not confident enough to take it apart further. And ye it was clean water
. It was in my hoody pocket, and it fell out as its a loose pocket. I took it out straight away, was in their less then a second. I hope it still works!!!

Ok thanks. Im going town tomorrow anyway so i will pick some up then. Then just spray it on the phone, avoiding the mic?
Also, i put it in a small cupboard with a boiler in, and its pretty warm in there, and i wrapped each thing up in toilet paper. I hope its fine otherwise ill hae to use my 7650 lol.

@se - Was there any OTHER form of chemical and even SOLID-materials inside the bowl when your N73 went for a swim
I mean, chemicals (string ones) that can really damage the board . . .
