Razor


Question Posted Saturday May 26 2007, 9:03 pm

I have a razor cell phone, and I was at the beach and got splashed (not bad) but my phone got wet in my pocket.

It didnt turn on for like a few min, like didnt work so i took the battery out and stuff, and it took me a while to turn on.

Well the phone works, but the numbers dont like work , and i cant answer or send calls.
HELP?

Something is wrong with your Sim Card. The best thing to do it get a new sim card.

Take it apart (you should be able to easily take out the battery and a memory card if you have one in there) and leave it on a towel to dry for a day or two. Your phone should be fine; I've had friends put theirs through the washing machine without the water damage indicator turning red. About that - There's a little white dot somewhere in the battery compartment. If it's turned red, you're basically screwed if your phone needs an update, because that means the warranty is void or something. Regardless, your phone should WORK just fine, good luck trying to use the warranty though.


hope I helped! :)

i had somewhat of the same problem.. when you open your razr like the battery part there should be a small dot (sticker like thing) on the batter and on the phone in that area.. if they're both white your phone should be fine.. but if the one on the battery is red then you need to take it in for a new battery.. if the one on the phone is red.. then your phone wont work anymore and you're going to have to get a new one.

this just happened to me 2 weeks ago n thats what the "repair shop" said.. so look for that!

You could leave it to completely dry out for a day or two, which even then it still may not work. so id advise you to take it to a phone repair shop

Just take the back and battery off of the phone and let it air out to try for a few hours. Maybe even just for that day. It should work after it airs out :]
