Today, I was in my hot tub with my brand new phone. I set it down and when I grabbed my towel I knocked it into the water. I quickly snatched it up and dried it off with the towel and suprisingly only one button stopped working. It was the unlock button, a perfectly good phone that I can't use. FML

You took your phone with you to a hot tub? what were you expecting to happen? Even if the phone hadn't fallen into the water it could have been damaged by the steam from the hot water. YDI.

How do you know the unlock button was the only one that stopped working if you couldn't get into your phone? ....

Put it in a ziplock bag with one of those desiccant packets you find in shoe boxes. After a few days, all of the trapped moisture will be out of the phone, and it should work again.

Last I heard, phones didn't need to breathe.

It's stupid to bring your phone outside? You're right man, I never take my cell phone outside of my house. You know, like it's designed to be used. Give the OP a break, he was probably excited about having a new phone and/or waiting on a call and got clumsy.

Finish the sentence. He didn't say outside in general. He specified "to a hot tub."

Open it up, remove all parts you can and place them all in a bowl of plain dry rice in a warm dry dark cupboard. You might be able to save it

Put a bunch of rice in sealed container and put the phone in there. Wait a few days and it will soak up all the moisture!

Maybe there's a code they have to enter and then hit the unlock button?

YDI for having it near the hot tub. All you need to do is take the battery out, and put it in a plastic bag with the back open. Throw in a couple desiccant packs (you can find them in shoe boxes or beef jerky), and you're all set.

To whom in the bathroom were you trying to show off your phone, your penis? Probably not the cheapest way to learn the tech + water = NO lesson, but there you go.
