Hello. My Magician tried to swim and now it does not start.
I didn't do anything to make it start, before asking here. The truth is I have no idea what I can do !!!
Does anybody knwos if I can do something to start it again ? Or now it is just good for spare parts ?
Thanks a lot!!!

Take it apart... dry everything... and assemble again!

Dont worry !!! My magician was resting under hot water for around 5 minutes.

Take the battery/SIM out.

Remove the back cover.(If you can disassemble it completely, well and good.)

Let it dry. (You can use dryer.)

Let it dry completely. It may take a whole day.

Assemble everything again n start using it.

The only problem i faced was related to network. The network reception turned zero. In this case, just open the upper back cover where camera lense is placed and clean the two connectors which connect directly to motherboard. Hope, this will help. :)

A good sollution for drying is to take a part batery and sim and bury the PDA it in rice. The rice is very disicant an in a day or two the divice will be completly dry.

Try it!
