> My wife's washed my T610!
Bookmark topic
Disaster! My wife decided to wash my jeans with my T610 phone in the pocket.
Despite now looking very sparkly, it is decidedly unwell...
No power at all, but when I plug it in to the charger, the red light in the joystick illuminates.
Is it completely dead, or maybe salvagable?
It's been like it for three days now.
Any advice would be fantastic. (divorce is optional!)
Cheers,
Andy
PS, not sure if it's in the right catagory, so feel free to move it!

Welcome to Esato
Divorce is the best solution mate
Only kidding.
Did you leave it in your pocket?

Hello. You did the worst thing possible lol. Whena phone becomes "water damaged" the best thing you can do is to take it completely apart with screwdriver etc. At least take the battery out. Then leave it to try for a good half a day at least.
I would go for the divorce

my wife washed my sons T310 last year. previously she also dropped a motorola in a bucket of water. neither survived the experience unfortunately and its a rare occurrence that any electronics survives well after water contact. I had a Nokia 8210 that fell out of my shirt pocket straight into the toilet and it worked for a month afterwards but still gave up and was replaced by insurance
good luck! time to get a K700 perhaps?

Guys guys give that T610 a chance! Take it to SE and see what they can do. What if the phone could be repaired?

My T230 fell into water twice and it lived to tell the tale. No harm in trying out a repair.
