Hi folks, I'm wondering if some experts here might be able to help me with my problem.

I dropped my gf's t68i in the toilet a while ago.


After letting it dry out, I re-flashed and re-ARMed it, snce I have the terminator dongle and software.

It works fine now and the battery still holds a good charge.

The only problem is that the c button doesn't work AT ALL. Everything else is fine. the toilet swim didn't even kill her address book and prefs

Does anyone have any idea? Am I using the wrong software (t68 maybe?)

Any help would be great ~ phil


p.s... yes, I did go fishing.

there is no solution against water damage, u should get a new one for her, or get r310 or r250, those fones survive such actions.

When I dropped my T68i into some beer a few years ago it worked ok except for the c key. There is no way to fix it without replacing the main board. You might as well get a new phone.

i see -- so it is not soft/firm-ware related. thanks folks.

i'd much rather grab it out of beer than the toilet.

by main board, you mean the computer, not the keyboard?

the main board is the panel where the screen is on. u can get for sure another t68i for cheap, but i would suggest to go for th "real" t68, the m version, with the rubber back.

Perhaps you have SE service point in your hometown? Take your T68i to the service point for cleaning.
