Sorry for your loss but that thread title cracked me up!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jasonator:
Speaking from experience.....you need to take the phone apart. This is the most important part. If you were able to retrieve it from the toilet and get it turned off before it shorted out, your next battle is corrosion. The fine micro-solders and and such corrode super easy and fast. Even if you did get it dried out, the corrosion would cause the short when you re-power up the device. Take it apart and dip in rubbing alcohol. It will displace the water and dry much faster. Your speaker is going to be shot almost for sure. They are typically paper cones....But yeah, you need to dissassemble it and make sure there is no corrosion. Good luck.

lol, dude, just don't kiss her after she just ends up with a phone call xD

I don't really think that's too much of a deal. You can always tear it down and use those acolotic wipe to clean it out. Spray some fragrances as well. It will be fine.

I would throw my beloved nexus away. Imagine talking and then smelling my own poo... Yeah it'd be in dumpster.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Acuity:
How exactly does someone drop their phone in the toilet? Were you reading XDA like a newspaper while on the potty?

If I am going pee pee, the phone never has a chance to leave my pocket. If I am going poo poo, I usually lower my pants prior to getting near the black hole.

I am scared of poo. 2 girls 1 cup ruined me for life. I probably wouldn't have even gone after it, but I hold your loyalty in the highest regard. :good:
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VoiD_Dweller:
Yeah I read xda while on the toilet every morning. The glass on the N4 is so slick on both sides. I wasn't able to get a bumper, it just slipped.. it all happened in slow motion too which sucked.

I just did a test, and I don't think it would be a very easy thing for the phone to fall in the toilet for me. I'm not a large person, but I am 6'2" which might contribute to a little more trampoline-like nexus-saving flesh.

How are you sitting to make a hole in 2? I will take screenshots of how I sit and post them on xxxda-developers.com when it's ready for launch. :good:

Haha. Thanks for the laugh. Gonna share this with my wife! :D
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] contactfornitish:
Sad that I see more joking people in the thread than the people really suggesting something.

Note that if dropped in water, then first and formost job is to do is, pull out battery (not applicable here) or switch off the phone. Once switch off, avoid the temptation to switch it on at any cost. Keep it under rice for at least 36 hours straight. Thats an approximate time depending on how much water might have gone inside. Your phone in this particular case is likely to be safe at the end, if you switched it off before putting in rice and it was shown as working before that.

As about smell, then you can simply put the phone in sunshine for long in noon and it will fed away from the real world at least though yes it might stay inside your memories for a while :P

Man must have some really skinny legs. I weight about 160 and 5"8 male and when i going for some special time to think in the bathroom, sitting down my legs press down on the seat causing more width and little room for my phones to fall through. The ONLY time i ever dropped my phone was getting up and it slipped out my hand, bounced on the toilet seat and down the disgusting hole. Oh and to the people about the Visa and Mastercard business is that only for credit cards or for debit too?

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrisjcks:
If the paper rips and you get some on your finger LOL - later that evening, your still eating from your hand as you washed it.

Just give it a good clean.

OR better yet, install a full body protector, the skins cover the entire phone.

Poo would have only been on the outside anyway.

Give it a good wipe down with some antibacterial stuff, install a full body skin.

As good as new!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VoiD_Dweller:
Fortunately for me it is, it hangs, and nearly touches the water while on the crapper. Its short ones like yours that stick out and block passage of a falling phone.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plasticglock:
Wow what a horror story. I feel bad for you. But please don't give the poopxus to your girlfriend. I think I would have just thrown it away and then layed down on the floor and cried it out for a while.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Misledz:
If it was any other day the phone would have been safe. But jesus, thanksgiving dinner? You might as well shout out like Tom Hanks to his beloved Wilson as it 'floats' away.

On the bright side. The amoled at 100% brightness should cook or bake what's inside, at a nice well-done pace. You may aswell be able to recall then what you ate.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] owl74:
Hi all

I bought a N7105 (Note 2 LTE) from phones4u yesterday. When I got home, I immediately tried my O2 and 3UK sim cards and they never worked, when I strat the phone there was a pop up asking to imput network security key. The only sim card that worked was my Tmobile sim card.

This morning when I got home from work, I was reading this forum and found out about pressing the following keys *#197328640#

Out of interest, I just selected each option to see what is in there..... I don't know (can't remember) which option I pressed but when I rebooted and tried my O2 ans 3UK sim cards, they now work. The pop-up asking about network security was gone, and I can make phone calls and connect to the internet with the previously barred sim cards. BUT --- there is the word BUT, when I make a phone call, there is a message that says ""Conditional call forwarding active" . That just stays for a few seconds and it goes away.

In the Menu after pressing the keys I mentioned above, I remember there was a setting for Network Lock:

Main Menu > [1] UMTS > [1] Debug Screen > [8] Phone Control > [6] Network Lock > Options [1]Perso SHA256 Info, [2]Perso SHA256 ON [3]Perso SHA256 OFF [4] NW Lock NV Data INITIALLIZ

======================

also in

Main Menu > [4] SIM > I remember clicking the options [4] Deactivate FTM, and [5] Disable ENS

======================

I really am not sure which ones have unlocked the phone, but it is unlocked now.....

Anyone can explain this ?????
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andy a:
Doesn't sound like it's done it properly if you get that message when making a call!
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dk206:
That just tells you even yiu have call forwarding set up on your current sim and number that you are using. Under condition could mean several things I.e when phone is engaged with someone else or off etc etc.

[HTC Rezound] Cam3726:
I only got my rezound a week ago and already having troubles. last night the phone froze up and I let it sit for around 5 minutes before pulling the battery. I went to turn it back on and things went as usual untill it got to the 4G LTE screen and it froze. I pulled the battery and rebooted a few times. I tried pulling the sim and starting it withouth the sim. And without the back. I've tried factory resetting the phone but it freezes before it can reset. I haven't made any changes to the phone since I got it. And I'm not very tech-friendly so I have no idea what even to try to do.
[HTC Rezound] mjh68:
So new phone or refurb ? Completely stock ? Sounds like a bad phone if nothing was done to it , otherwise could be a form of the wcdma bug possibly. If it will boot up, go to network settings and try to see what mode it is on , or download lte on/off and make sure its not on wcdma.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] nuts_850:
i had the baseband version XXKPA and i needed to switch to a more stable ICS so i flashed XXLPQ without doing a factory reset, now my phone is stuck at the boot screen. it can enter into download mode, but not recovery mode. I need to fix this asap. Anybody help?

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ghengis042:
(If this is the wrong forum, please let me know, but I think the i9100g forum is just supposed to be for devs?)

I have a SGS2 i9100g that I just inherited from my wife. The stock firmware is crap but with CM10 it runs amazingly well (especially coming from a Captivate running an ICS ROM). I love this setup, but about half the time I go from WiFi to 3G, the data connection doesn't pick up -- I have 5 bars, but they're grey, and there's no letter (H, 3G, etc) there. Sometimes, I'll have 3G for a while, then I'll check the phone to find that it's gone. There doesn't seem to be a particular pattern to when this happens. A reboot usually fixes, eventually. Sometimes I need more than one.

The curious thing: when this happens, I can go to the APN settings and the list is totally empty -- they all vanish, and even if I try to add an APN and save it doesn't show up. A reboot generally brings them back, but not always. I've tried an APN Manager from the market, but it says "not compatible with your SIM" -- I'm on Blau in Germany, if that matters.

Do I flash a new kernel? Radio? I'd like to avoid flashing back to stock or CM9, since I'm so spoiled by Project Butter now :D

I've got to open one of my touchpads and from what I've read I WILL break at least some of the clips holding it on so I'd want a 3rd party as well, wouldn't spend more than about £5-10 on it though ($10-20). I imagine it wouldn't be expensive to make them though anyway in bulk. Would be great though, I'd buy a few if the price was right, maybe rubberised like the Touchpad Go is/was.

Do you still recommend hox over gs3? I reaally like the screen of hox! I know it lags but I'm sure custom roms with jellybean fix them all. Am I right? Help please..
[HTC One X] faxel:
easy, u better choose dark gray, bcos if u choose white, ur phone will ge dirty very soon bcos its not made of plastic its made of poly-carbonate. more over white it self get dirty soon.

one x better for me in deffernt ways, build quality, performance, display and HTC SENSE.
[HTC One X] thugangel662:
Get the White one with the official HTC case. It looks better than the dark Grey & the case will protect it from getting dirty, while keeping its great looks.
[HTC One X] colinmc8:
I got the white cause it was the cheapest. Did you know there is a black one as well? That's what I wanted but it was €100 more expensive.

I Just got a black silicon case for €5, it looks good and gives it better grip cause it can be a bit slippy
[HTC One X] miczk:
Hey,

I wanted buy a white version but it was out of stock and I wanted to get HOX as fast as possible so I chose grey. A few weeks ago I had a chance to check white one and I can say that I was lucky by taking grey device.

I do not like white version cause it looks so plastic and it also reminds me a bit white iPhone. Grey version is really neutral and if you do not wanna be extravagant or something like this, go for grey.
[HTC One X] tadas_max:
White looks way better to me. Doesnt look cheap at all. It doesnt get dirty very easy, even if it does its very easy to clean. I saw many people who bought grey hox later changed the case to white because it really does look better. Althouth it's a personal choice.

If you come from an older phone you won't notice lag. Like I used desire for sometime and then moved to hox.

Sgs3 is a good phone. But sense is way ahead of touchwiz even if it may be slower a bit, but jellybean should change that. Get hox, you won't regret

[HTC One X] Wilks3y:
Yeah white is the best one mate definately, people saying it gets dirty are wrong, mine is still gleaming and looks amazing. Too many black phones I like to be different so I also got white.

3 - I always choose white phones

4 - If it does get dirty (which it doesnt) I know lots of people from XDA who simply get some Cif, dab it on a bit of cloth, rub it and voila clean !
[HTC One X] jayclarke:
I went for the grey one at first, but ended up having the phone replaced because it was faulty. So when they ordered me a new one I asked for the white one instad of the grey. The white one is so much nicer. If you go for the grey - you'll wish you had the white lol. But that's my opinion.

Cheers
[HTC One X] colinmc8:
I never tried cif, but I wouldn't go using it on a €400 - €500 mobile. It is an abrasive cleaner and might leave an uneven finish.

I would first use soapy water, and if that fails, 70% alcohol.
