I recently had a mishap with my cell phone it took a dive with me in the pool and its back up , some buttons dont work but its up and running. The only problem is that it says " No service " ... anyone have any ideas about getting this fixed or any tricks ...
Dont want to buy another new cell phone...
Thanks

Electronics and water don't mix well. The worst thing you can do in this type of situation is to try and turn the phone on while it's still wet.
I've had surprisingly good luck with cell phones surviving water. I accidentally left a phone in a snow bank last year, when my gf found it in the spring it had dried out and worked perfectly.
Your best bet now would be to disassemble the phone and leave it that way for a while to let any residual moisture evaporate. If that fails you may be s.o.l.
Good luck

"Even me?" she said.
I thought, "Oh right, if I categorically eliminate all other people, it's just me and her. She'd like that.
"Especially you" I said.
"You are virtually the ring leader, the way I see it."
Then, I blew out the candle.
