anyone with tech knowledge?? I dropped my t39 in water and let it air dry, and now the only thing that doesnt work is the microphone. I did the service test for the microphone and it wont work. I opened the phone and took off the cable for the microphone and put in a handsfree and the microphone on the handsfree wont work either. I am hoping it is nothing with the phone itself and only the microphone that is broken, but the fact that the handsfree wont work either is not encouraging. Can any of you give me your opinion as to what is wrong with the phone? the warranty is over so i cannot give it to ericsson to fix unless i pay. In your opinion if i change the internal mic in the flip would it fix the problem? any info would be appreciated

Have you had the flip off? I had a T39 some time ago and dropped it in a way that caused the flip to come off. I just could not get it back on with the connectors in the right place, in the end I gave in and bought a new one.
Another possible cause might be corrotion... It's amzing how quick it does that some times. If so, you're buggered.

Speak/Microphone usually suffer the worst from water damage and will probably need replacing but the rest of the phone should be fine once it has fully dried out. You might need to clean it as well, you'll probably find some gunk floating about in there...
