What is the best way to clean your cellphone?

Question

They are ridden with germs!

Answer 1

I've been in wireless for 7+ years, so here are my recommendations. Rubbing alcohol is the best to use on most of your phone (buttons, speaker area, etc) for getting rid of germs and oils, however on some older models that have the plastic encasement over the display you will want to use glass cleaner on that particular part or else the plastic covering may turn opaque.

I know you didn't specifically ask for this, but you may also want to occassionally clean the bottom where you connect the charger. For this, you can dip a soft bristled toothbrush in a bit of rubbing alcohol (do not immerse it) and gently brush the connection area to free up any goo or small particles that are wedged or blocking your connectors.

Another note: Never use any type of liquid behind the battery. Most phone manufacturers have a dot or line on the back behind the battery that - if gotten even remotely wet or damp - will leave a tell-tale mark. It won't hurt your phone, but if you should have an issue while it is under warranty they will assume it is water damage and won't even bother taking it apart to see otherwise.

The best reverse cell phone lookup service that I have tried is http://reversephone.toptips.org

From using a reverse cell phone lookup you will be able to get the callers name and address just
by typing the phone numbers they will tell you the details related to the number.
The reverse cell phone lookup service has your details available they will give you the cell phones location. For a full report including a name and address and other interesting informations you will have to pay.
Enter the number in the system and they will tell you a lot of informations about the phone number and the person who owns it.
If they have extra details you will have to pay for the report.
Free reverse phone lookup sites generally provide the most basic of information such as name and it works only for landlines. To get further information, money will have to be paid. The free searches do not provide much more than what can be found through the phone book.
This service is great, I used it a lot f time with great results: I always obtained what I was searching for.
I definitely reccomend this service.

I use a microfiber cloth, they work really good and you can get cheap ones at the dollar stores. If you are worried about germs try wipping the phone down with some antibacterial wipes, something with alcohol, before ussing the microfiber cloth. If there is any excessive alcohol on the phone let the phone dry before wipping the phone down the microfiber cloth.

Wash the microfiber cloth frequently or you will get cross contamination. I wash my microfiber cloths in really hot water with mild soap after I have done a load of whites with bleach. The bleach you use for the whites wil steralize the washer. Always use 1 full cup of bleach per load of whites and add it to directly into the water its self beforer the clothes are put in.

For Cheap Solutions, this is the way I do it, for the screen of the cell phone, use Baby Wipes or just a Damp Cloth, and gently wipe across the screen, if the screen is glass covered, spary a little Glass Cleaning Solution on a small piece of paper and wipe gently(so it won't leave wipe marks).

Now for those annoying spaces around the number tabs, use a ear swab and dab a little water on the tip, go through the numbers.....I sometimes use a computer Dust Remover(Blows a strong amount of air)to remove the dirt/dust/etc. that ends up by/in the Microphone and Hearing holes.

Did that help?

In new research, it is found that the cellphone is more dirtier than the toilet seat. Cellphone is the hub for germs and becteria due to the favourable condition generated by it.
Actually the cell phone acquires the heat due to its constant use and link with the waves. Battry and another e-related components make the situation even more worse.Regural contact with the hands makes it more mostiours and humid.Thus these two conditions(heat &humidity) favours the most the prolification of microbes. So for cleanimg , you must keep it below 3 degree C atleast for one hour a day avoiding from moisture.You can even do DRY-COOLING and you may spread littile powder to drag humidity.Dont use liquid as it can harm your mobile- components .You can even apply some commercial gasious liquid on it.In off time keep it at cool & dry place.
these tips might help you in retrospective cleaning-planning
Keep in mind a healthy cellphone makes your day healthy

I use rubbing alcohol and a q tip. Open up your phone (take back off) dip Q tip in alcohol and clean the tinny crevices of the phone you can even clean the connections ( the metal) on the phone it will also help get rid of any corrosion if you have it on your phone usually it appears where you plug in to charge your phone. Then let your phone dry out and it should be good to go. also you can use a baby wipe to clean the screen and then wipe it off with a dry cloth to get any smudges it may have left off.

Hope that this is helpful and answers your questions.

That's right, we should clean our cellphones ones in a while. But be sure to clean only the parts, your plain hands can manage to open. u can use, "Q" tips dabbed in a small amt of mild alcohol, the casing (inside & out), the windows, the keypads, mouthpiece,etc. and dry it thoroughly. As for the interior, where screw drivers are used to open it, leave that to the experts, they have this soft chemicals they rub, hand blowers to rid of dust, and others. But make sure to be attentive when having your cps serviced. Not all servicemen are angels.
