Hi,
So I'm brand new here and I was googling round looking for somewhere to post this question and I found this forum. This is a question about my Nokia slider phone, I think it's the 6265 model, the older slider.
Anyway I'll try to keep the story truncated to save space; my 11 month old drooled a river inside my nokia mobile (and I had just replaced an old phone that she previously decided should go for a swim in my cereal with it) and it worked okay, no issues except that it was a bit damp, but then about an hour later it started doing all sorts of odd things. It would randomly open a folder and get stuck on scroll and I'd have to take the battery out to stop it.
Then the buttons stopped working. Next some of the buttons worked but the ones on the top part of the slider, the send, end, menu etc buttons, stopped working, so I could dial a number but not call it out.
I didn't see the liquid damage as being particularly extensive, as it was just a bit of drool, but then again I do know how sensitive electronics are to things like that.
SO... I've heard letting it try to air out etc, but is there any indication that it might not be a liquid damage problem? Or any suggestions on how I might get it to ressurect? Because it's far past the warranty date (I got it from a friend) and I can't afford to keep replacing these effing things. Yet, I must have one as I feel utterly naked without it.
So, help anyone?
