I have a Telus C555 optimus chat , dropped in water, tried drying it out, screen came on distorted with no response and keypad lights flashing or blinking on and off. Dried it out overnight under a fan, now when I turn it on I get the clear LG logo screen and it hangs there , no response, with the keypad lights still flashing off and on.

question: is this phone FUBAR or will it eventually dry out completely and work? I urgently need a working phone.

anyone who has experienced this situation?
