Do you think I will be able to restore my phone book? The cell is replaceable, the numbers are not. Please.

Probably not, because you have likely shorted out the memory chip. But, if you keep your cell phone records, it will list the numbers you have dialed. If not, ask your carrier to send you your past bills. Try calling your friends who might share the same numbers you had. It's tough I know. I lost my cell phone on the beach and had to do the above.

do not turn on let it dry out at least 2 to 3 days then turn on
hopefully it will still work. also take the battery out. with water still inside it will cause a short and then it wont work but if you let it dry before doing anything it should not be a problem.

DO NOT ATTEMPT TO POWER IT ON. doing so will short circuit the chips. leave it out opened up battery off for a few days. Unlike people will suggest, DO NOT heat it with hair dryer, that will crack the liquid crystal display and then you wont be able to see it. after it dries completely pop the battery on and try to power it up. good luck

Let it dry out (open the casing if you can), but more than likely, you're probably hosed. Sorry for the bad news (I've been there myself).
Sync it up with software on your computer for next time so that you don't lose your info if something happens again.

By the looks of it, youre screwed. Ive been there, I dropped my phone in the toilet! It still works though. Try blow drying it on a high, cool setting.

You will be able to restore your cell phone to sanity, but only if you take the AA batteries to meetings ;)

Yeah Make sure you check all your pockets before you do laundry.. I did the same thing with a 20 sack... now I always check my pockets, you live & learn.
