I've got a Samsung U740.. had I mean. Over the weekend someone bumped into my while I was texting and it fell into my drink.

The only part that got wet was the top bit.. and the screen stopped working, but the keyboard was still lighting up. I tried cutting it off by holding the off switch but it wouldn't cut off..and taking the battery out just slipped my mind.

Anyways.. I ended up taking the battery out a few hours later. I let it dry for a day and put the battery back in. It started up just fine and was loading VCast..and froze. Since then it won't start up at all.

Sometimes when I put the battery in and try to cut it on the only thing that happens is the flash for the camera comes on and stays on.

Ouch thats a hard one!!! I hope you had backup assist for your contacts... If not you can get a hard list of all your contacts on your account on verizonwireless.com. As far as your phone goes I dont know of any places where they can repair phones. Good luck

I did not have backup assistant. :'( Where would I find this hard list you speak of since I didn't have backup assist? I looked around for a few minutes, but didn't find anything.


And yeah.. I also now have a warranty in case this happens again! I wish I would have taken the battery out right away when this happened. It was a few hours later before I did..and at that point the phone was making some static sounded noises.

Go to Samsung website and get their customer service number. They may charge you and arm and a leg but they can most likely repair it.

we do repairs at my indirect store...we can usually get most liquid damaged phones to work as well as really anything else...if you want to send them to wyoming we could fix it for you...
