If this was like yesterday then just wait a day or so for it to dry out and maybe it will start working again. I've gotten mine wet plenty of times and it still works.
FYI, if you are going to take it in for repair you'll have to fess up that it got wet because there are indicators inside the battery compartment that change color when the phone is exposed to water.

No. do not purchase him a cellular telephone in case you already instructed him you does not. He hasn't found out something from the errors he has made by using the sound of it. i could wait till the subsequent semester of school is over and if he does good, say "C's" on all classes or extra perfect, he can THEN have a cellular telephone. i anticipate which you would be determining to purchase the bill as properly? if so, cut back him on what he use in minutes and texting. i could advise the t_mobile family individuals plan. i'm on it and that i'm getting endless texting, 1000 on each and every occasion minutes, loose week ends prepared on $20 a month...my mom will pay extra suitable than that however the wide-unfold cost for 4 telephones is lots extra low priced than paying for each plan person. it is my suggestions, the form you confirm your newborn is as much as you.

Dry it completely with a hair dryer. If that doesn't work, take to where you bought it to see if the company will replace the guts,or, software inside of the phone.

My phone had been damaged with water a couple days ago. But I had insurance... They are replacing my phone & I should recieve it this afternoon. I'm sure your insurance should cover that.(That is if you have it.)

no i do not think so cause his sim card got wet and it will not work with that being wet. just toss it and get him a new one. Sorry for the depressing news but you had to know.

let it dry for a few days, it may not work right away, but let it dry, it may still have a chance.
