ADVICE
• Dry out a soaked phone
If you've dunked your phone in water, don't despair. Try taking the battery out and packing the whole thing in dry white rice overnight. Sometimes the rice can draw the water out of the phone.

On a personal note, a few years ago, my wife dropped her mobile phone in the toilet bowl @ Genting. Quickly, she took it out and wiped it. Hehe...even if she had known about the rice 'trick' then, finding rice would be a problem.

Anyway, thanks to God, the phone worked for another 2-3 years!
