Trust me there's a flagship android phone in that bag.
So if this is gonna work it's gonna work after 24 hours, right?
Go out an buy a bag of rice while you can.

I hate rice.
That's a lie. I shouldn't take this out on rice.

Do you not get phone insurance in the states? My UK bank account comes with free mobile phone insurance. I don't even need to register the phone, just call them up, pay a £50 excess and get a replacement phone next day. My wife and I both managed to smash the screens on our phones within 2 weeks dropping them, they didn't bat an eye when we called up.
No, but it might be one now.
Haven't passed that 24 hour mark yet, so it's still Schrödinger's phone at this point.

At least it wasn't a Nokia, you would of lost the washing machine too!
Holy shitballs, I am now sat in the office. laughing my ass off with people looking at me like I'm a crazy person.
First things that came to mind:
1. YES, IT BLENDS!
2. smartphones: foolproof, but not idiot resistant.
Saw this on the local news, might as well give it a try

Can we start a crowdfunding campaign to deliver rice to blame space? He might be living in the middle of nowhere, like courage the cowardly dog.

I went through this same year about a year ago. Felt bad man... another problem for me was the fact that it came back but the screen was ruined as the backlight wouldnt work and you could only see the screen in dark light(just barely). The cost of repair for my htc one m7 was like 180 so I bought a moto g and waited for something to tickle my fancy(got the s6 now)

when my nexus 5 took a light dip in the toilet (1/3 of the phone in water after the bowl was empty and was starting to refill) it took about 3 days for it to dry and turn on again in rice. I took it out after 24 hours and it still didn't turn on. I put it back in and kinda expected it to never turn on again. Waited another 2 days and it seemed fine. IDK about kitty litter but I think you'll have to wait a while longer

Are you actually waiting a full 24 hours?

If it works, PLEASE keep away from the cat for christ sake. Imagine the shame if it used it by accident.

I used all natural healthy rice on my laptop. Pickle juice is what was spilled on it. It worked after about a week.

A WEEK? Did you try to turn it on before that?

I hope it works after all this. Good luck b.

Yeah like 10 times. It would turn on sometimes, other times it would just flicker. I ended up sending it for repairs anyway though because it had some problems.

I waited 48 hours before turning mine on. I wish I waited a whole week cause I could still hear water when i attempted to turn it on
