I dropped my evo in the toilet

How do you drop am evo into the toilet anyway? Like seriously?

I didn't drop my Evo in the toilet, but my old Optimus V suffered this fate.

Moral of the story: Never try to piss and text at the same time while drunk.

I worked in a T-Mobile store for a while and have heard more than you'd care to know... 90% of people who do this are women. They either have their phone in the back pocket of their jeans and it falls out while de-pantsing or pops out when they bend over, or they set their purse on the tank and it falls over or gets bumped and the phone drops in the bowl.

The worst part is no one tells you up front that it went in the toilet... They plop the phone down and say it "mysteriously stopped working." Only after pulling the battery cover and pointing out the water dripping out or the liquid damage indicator do they admit it went for a swim in the toilet. Needless to say, we kept hand sanitizer pumps at each register!

That's the only way I thought of it if it was possible

My old OV went into a deep puddle once and wouldn't reboot right away. I took it apart, as far as I dared and cleaned as many contact points with a couple of those Clean Lens packets, CAREFULLY! And stuck the whole thing (without the battery) in a ziplock bag of rice over night. I had to replace the Sd card as it was a cheapy and had trouble booting up. Got a nice Sandisk 8g. They're waterproof. It rebooted and ran for another year after that! Rice is great for this problem. Good luck.

:laugh:

I legitimately busted out laughing, oh man, glad the rice bag recovered that.
