Well, It was pouring today in florida, well in my part, and I got soaked. one of my friends called me and the speaker was absolutily pointless almost. I heard a small strange voice attempting to speak. i made out most of the words but some thing was wrong...

Also, I noticed the screen was totaly fogged up.

Any suggestions, help, something!

if anyone can also post the link for dismanteling a K750 i would really appriciate it

I really wouldn't recommend taking it apart cos its virtually impossible to stop dust getting in, u'll find it growing & growing after u seal it. I dropped my k750 in the bath a week after getting it. I took the battery out straight away but was 2 impatient to dry it properly & kept trying every few hours. It wouldn't switch on & when it did there was horrible water damage. To cut a long story short- its totally fixed now. A month after the accident the battery indicator was still bust but now thats fixed

Phone is fixed now. I didnt have one of those special screwdrivers so i just took the front cover off on the top half. I got the water out. speaker is fixed, and everything is fine besides the battle scars I made...

Sutitan~Batesie is right. I have often handled urgent calls during similar conditions on my S700. Please just leave it to dry. Preferably if opening it, do talk to another user "sanjcher" who dried his K700 with a hair dryer amonq other things for as big a mess.. Gbrooks himself posted THIS link about taking 750 apart --> http://www.se-nse.com/forum/showthread.php?t=870 --> further.. these picture links might help --> http://static.esato.com/board/ui/1DgjmxtP84W8Y3y64LtQ.jpg --> http://static.esato.com/board/ui/lZH4HGxRSWGFli7Fdwf8.jpg ...
