Unhappy 8520 gets wet =\

Please Login to Remove!

Hi guys, new to the forums

my 8520 got wet today, luckily i had a screen protector and a case on but the screen started to flicker, after that it just went completely.

Basically a lent back in the bath with ma fone on the back, of it and water just throw up and took the phone with it ( i use phone for music )

I've tried turning it on and to my prevail, its worked but now my keys and trackpad (trackpad sometimes) is unresponsive.

Any help on this, my dad has ordered littlewoods to pick the phone up so, hopefully it will get replaced =\

BTW water markers did not go red.

Any help would be usefull.

Don't bring your BlackBerry into the tub! It's a good way to kill it quick. The steam and moisture in the air could still affect it's functionality.

It's how I damaged most of my old Sony Ericsson, listening to music in the shower.
