"I work in the Telecom field and deal with this a LOT"

I dropped my cell phone into a bucket of water with live minnows while fishing and generally followed the procedures you listed. That was over a year ago and the phone is still working fine.

I also had my garage door go nuts once, up down, up down, and found my opener remote in the clothes dryer. That was several years ago and it also is still working.

Strangely, my neighbor had exactly the same thing happen as you did.

After she removed it from the dryer, it never did work quite right. I took it apart and found several of the components had literally been shaken loose from the PC Board.

I told her, that in the future, she should consider drip drying....

Cheers,
