Once it gets wet inside, there's pretty much nothing you can do but replace the phone. The inside of the phone has a bar code on it that will be smudged if it gets wet so customers can't "fudge" about why the phone is not working. Hopefully you have handset insurance, and if not, you will probably need to purchase a new phone.

You can turn off the power to the phone, remove the battery, let it all dry (at least a couple of days!!) and see if it will work; however, I will say right up front that I'm not at all optimistic about its chances :-( Check to see if you had insurance on the handset, as you will almost certainly need a new one.

generally cell phones don't work anymore when they are dropped into liquid...i dropped my phone in water...took it apart...let all the pieces dry and put it back together and nothing...i'd take it in to the cingular store to see what they can do about it...you might just have to buy a new phone

My phone fell in the potty a while ago. I used my blow dryer to dry the phone & battery compartment (take the battery out first!). It works perfectly fine now.

OMG hahahahahaha; that's hella funny. Unfortunately, sweetie, I think you need to get a new phone. Caffeine can't be any good to a cell phone............ring ring!

Probably not - printed circuit boards and all that.
Take it to your phone provider and see what they have to say.
