Artemis/ HTC P3300 fell down into a bucket full of water

[karateka_sd]

Hi! all the whizkids out there!! My HTC Artemis had fallen down into a bucketfull of water from the bathroom rake. It was in vibration mode, and I just forgot to pick it up while leaving the bathroom. Someone might have called, while vibrating it moved and fell down into a bucket full of water. Around after half an hour, this mess was discovered.

Immediately the battery was taken out, and the phone was kept below a 100 watt bulb at a distance of 6 to 8" from the bulb for drying.

After keeping that way for 24 hours, Itried to start it today morning. It started, but stopped while booting when those four numbered lines normally appear. I took the battery out immediately.

Now what next? Guys, plz, plzzzz. help. Soon...

my orbit got washed, i stripped it down and left it to dry overnight on a radiator, works fine. the problem is condensation says inside for ages and starts to corrode parts thats why i stripped it down.

Time of the beginning of repair very important. If to not assort in current of day, and to not dry - any device it is possible to throw out. It is necessary to disassemble, remove the chamber from a payment, to remove metal covers from audio, radio, GPS, etc modules, remove the display and all plastic!!!! and to put in C2H5OH 90 %. Not taking out a payment from spirit three soft brush. To dry an electric hair drier, without fanaticism. Most likely, replacement of a microphone is required.
Good luck
