My torch fell in soda:(

Hi
was wondering if there is anything else I can do,my daugter dropped it in a cup of diet soda(not real sugar, dont know if that matters)  when it happened I immediately opened it up and took out the battery and sim & sd cards  and wiped it out with a towel, I did try it after that but it didn't seem right so I did put it in rice for a little over 48 hrs. I tried it it came on and would make calls (with buttons only,  touch screen would not work), the next day I realized there was still some watermarks under the screen so I put it back in rice for 2 more days. The screen is clear, the other things I have come across are the camera button on the side says"could not start camera, close other applications and try opening camera again" and have had "app error 606" come up on white screen a couple times. so far if I can get to it with buttons I can do stuff, but that has pretty much been dialing phone #s. 
this phone is only 2 months so I really don't want to have to buy a new one.
any suggestions at all, I was going to reset the software but I can't figure out how to do it.
any help would be appreciated
thanks

liquids kill electronics
you need to make sure it is dry before powering on
you might have fried something already, dry it out a few more days with out battery in it in a warm place.

  • My blackberry torch 9800 fell and now the screen is black.

    My blackberry torch 9800 fell and now the screen is black.  It fell again and came back on, now the screen turned red, then it went black and it is not coming on at all.  please help!

    Hey mirs81,
    From your description the BlackBerry smartphone was damaged when it was dropped, I would suggest contacting your point of sale for warranty and repair options.
    Let me know if you have any other questions.
    Thanks.

  • Something fell into the vent of my Macbook Pro.

    I'm not sure if it is the vent, but the area between the hinge of my screen and the body. A small piece of plastic fell inside and well, let's just say I didn't see anything come out when I turn the hinge facing downwards and shook it lightly.
    does it need to be removed? If so, how?

    I should defiantly be removed.
    Try locating the piece of plastic, get a torch and shine it into the vents. You might find is easier to close the lid of your laptop and then shine the torch into the vent.
    If you can see the piece of plastic then try shake the computer gently to see if it moves. If it does not move then you could try poking it with something thin, however I would not recommend this!
    If you can not locate the piece of plastic and you cant hear any rattling and it does not come out after a good shake then you could either leave it and hope for the best or take it to the apple store and they will be able to take it apart and have a look for you. Again, you could take the computer apart yourself but I would not recommend it.
    I hope this helps.

  • Button panel fell off- Warranty?

    Hi, Just wondered if anyone else has a Torch and the panel of buttons on the front (with the answer key etc on) has fallen off?
    I took it back to my provider but they say they can't fix it under warranty as they said it's 'physical damage' It just fell off!! The sticky pad holding it onto the phone just isn't that sticky.Under the blackberry warranty terms it states "...that the BlackBerry Hardware will be free from defects in workmanship and materials" sureley this is covered as it's a defect in the materials?
    If anyone else could respond that would be great. Or if Blackberry could confirm it's under warranty that would be even better, I've only had it 3 months and I'm in a 18 month contract.
    Thanks

    You can but a new set of keys for 8 bucks if they wont warranty it.

  • Iphone fell down and didnt turn on

    Hi,
    My iphone 4s fell off and didnt turn on. I took it to a store and they replaced a part of it (what they called something like icron - not sure) for Rs 800. It started working fine. I was happy. But, I just noticed today that camera and I-torch are not working fine. There is a black shutter when I try to open camera. Can anybody help? Would letting the battery die itself untill it is completeluy dead and charging again help, or I again need to take it to the store?
    Thanks

    Apple does not repair iPhones.
    Having anyone but Apple (or an Apple Authorized Service Center) open/repair/replace an iPhone voids the warranty.
    Take the device back to whoever "repaired" the device and get them to fix it again.

  • My macbook pro no longer connects to my TV with the mini dvi to hdmi adapter. A while ago the computer fell down and hit the cable. How can I tell if the computer is working ok. Doesn't show mirroring any more.

    My macbook pro no longer connects to my TV with the mini dvi to hdmi adapter. A while ago the computer fell down and hit the cable. How can I tell if the computer is working ok. Doesn't show mirroring any more. Was working while watching a movie but when I pulled it out from the computer and put it back in the system would no longer mirrorr the screen on the TV.

    The best option is an appointment at an Apple store genius bar.  The evaluation will be for FREE!
    Ciao.

  • My iphone 4s fell down and now it won't open

    Hello! So, my iPhone 4s fell down and now it won't open. I've tried to turn it on by holding simultaneously the home and lock button but nothing happens. I've plugged it in to its charger but all it does is vibrating constantly. Any suggestions?

    Could be hardware damage.
    Take your iPhone in for service.

  • Logical System is not appearing in Informer tab to check SOD's

    Hi GRC Experts,
    I have an issue with logical system to run risk analysis.
    I created logical system by following the Config guide, added physical system and generated rules (RAR Configuration>>Logical Systems>>Generate Rule) for that logical system.
    I haven't generated rules for the physical system (RAR Config>>Rule Upload>>Generate Rules) since I dont want more rules to be displayed in the reports.
    However I do not see logical system as an option in Risk Analysis (informer Tab) and Config>>Schedule background job for BAtch Risk Analysis>> under system as well.
    It would be great if any one advice me on this.
    Regards,

    Thanks Chinmaya,
    Yes you are right, I confirmed with a friend (my ex-GRC colleague) of mine as well.
    can't execute sod checks on a logical system - logical systems are only intended to eliminate the need to add the same rule set over and over for the same types of systems

  • Camera - Torch 9800 - Unable to capture the image

    Hey everyone!
    Had a torch 9800 for 18 months now and always been working fine... until today.
    I went to use the camera and it all seemed to open up fine but instead of seeing what the lens sees the screen was black. The centre focus [ ] was there and I could zoom back and forth just a black screen. 
    When I click for a photo I get a message " Unable to capture the image "
    I have searched the web and found nothing conclusive. Battery pulls, a full wipe and installation of the o/s have made no difference to it's lack of function.
    Does anyone out there have a suggestion? 

    I am having the exact same issue.  I also tried rebooting, taking out the battery and sim card and cleaning out the back, alas no difference.

  • Error while migrating reports from one instance to another(no torch seen)

    Hi,
    I am facing this problem when I am trying to migrate reports from UAT to Production. After migration when I try to run the report from Discoverer plus, I cannot see the torch symbol which is general if we have any parameters for that report. So, I again migrate the same .eex file and now I see the torch.
    Can any one throw some thoughts why is this happening, why I cannot see the torch symbol in the first time itself?
    Thanks,
    Srini.

    Hi Srini
    The list of values is not being associated with the item the first time around. The order in which the items are selected is important so for example if lists of values were imported first without the items upon which they depend they will be ignored. Running the import a second time will cause the LOVs to recognize their associated item and thus the association will be made.
    Generally I do two exports. I will export my folders and workbooks first and then export my item classes.
    Hope this helps explain what you are seeing.
    Best wishes
    Michael

  • My ipod nano 6th gen fell out of my pockey and the screen cracked badly, is there any coverage for this under warranty? I just bought it a month ago. If not what are the options for getting it fixed

    My ipod nano 6th gen fell out of my pocket and the screen cracked badly, is there any coverage for this under warranty? I just bought it a month ago. If not what are the options for getting it fixed? It is pretty frustrating, it fell from about 3 feet out of my pocket and now looks like it was beaten by a hammer.

    he advises restarting by inserting the OSX disc and pressing down the C button to reboot from there then selecting disk utility, hard disk and repair.... Does he mean me to hold down the C key on the alpha keyboard or the ctrl key?
    Should I just ask for my money back??? If it is a simple repair do I just literally push the disc in, push the power button and hold down the C button?
    That's where I would begin, too, with
    Repair Disk
    Insert Installer disk and Restart, holding down the "C" key until grey Apple appears.
    Go to Installer menu (Panther and earlier) or Utilities menu (Tiger) and launch Disk Utility.
    Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in the left panel.
    Select First Aid in the Main panel.
    (Check S.M.A.R.TStatus of HDD at the bottom of right panel, and report if it saysanything but Verified)
    Click Repair Disk on the bottom right.
    If DU reports disk does not need repairs quit DU and restart.
    If DU reports errors Repair again and again until DU reports disk is repaired.
    If DU reports errors it cannot repair you will need touse autility like TechTool Pro,Drive Geniusor DiskWarrior
    First we need to determine if the issue you are experiencing with the computer is software or hardware based. Once we have gotten things sorted out there should be time enough to make you decision about keeping or returning it.

  • Switched from BB Torch 3 mths ago, not 100% satisfied, I'm trying...I plugged in my bfs Macpro to charge, I didn't get a prompt asking what I wanted to do(BB does), all my bfs txt msgs,pics were on my phone, EVERYTHING, my holiday pics R gone:(  why

      I don't understand why there wasn't a prompt to ask what I wanted to do, when my phone was plugged into my bfs computer.  My BB always asked what I wanted to do, and in order to answer, I had to unlock my phone.  I lost everything, from pics of us cutting down our tree, which was actually the top of a 17ft tree, and us holding it after we had trimmed it to the size we wanted... All pics of our holidays & New Years, which was our first year we got to spend it together, so they were really special to me.  I have had my issues with not being able to go in the middle of a word, to correct spelling, and not having the keyboard like the torch, but I was trying my best to learn to love the iPhone, like anyone I know who has one, had told me I would come to love it.  I am completely devastated over this, and I can not understand how this could have happened.  Shouldn't I of had a prompt, asking me to restore my phone???  Something to notify me of what was going to happen...Anything, but it went ahead and changed my phone over, which even has the background/wallpaper choices of the iPhone5.  I lost all my contacts, and my notes???   I have health problems and kept a record of everything, which I have done with my blackberry, and its all gone...every bit of it:(   All my apps had my bfs AppleID and had to change all of that, and to my surprise, all my reminders came back the day after.  How could this possibly have happened to me???    I had a lock on my phone, and if anything, I thought the iPhone would be the same as the blackberry when it came to that, but even better, and I was wrong, but I paid for my poor lack of judgement...to me, the price I paid for it, I will never forget it.  When I saw the reminders had come back, I thought there may be a chance of recovering the rest of the data I lost on my phone....well, I am hoping, praying, there is a way to retrieve it all. 
      If anyone can help me with this, please, please, please, I would soooooo appreciate it...it means the world to me, and if its possible to do, I'll stay with iPhone:)
    Thank You

    There was a prompt. It asked if you wanted to set it up as a new phone or restore from a backup. You, or someone, selected "Restore from Backup".
    What were you backing it up to before you did this? If your computer, plug it in to your computer and restore.
    If iCloud, go to Settings>General>Resets>Reset All Content and Settings. When it goes through the setup, tell it to restore it from your iCloud backup.
    If nothing, then the content of your phone is gone.
