I have done this with my HTC Desire and it worked fine. Though it wasn't fully submerged in water but did get enough on it to get in between the touchscreen and the display, airing cupboard cleared that up too. Perfect advice, I'd just add take the battery out immediately as well. No chance of water causing short circuits if there's no power. | ||

'Looks like Ben Affleck according to Pagan' Member 876, 2506 posts SQ 220, BP 140, DL 260620.0 kgs @ 110kgs UnEq | Apparently sticking the phone in a ziploc bag with a load of dry rice works too, the rice absorbs all the moisture in your phone or summat. | ||
