hello all. i recently jumped in the pool with my cell in the pocket. i took the battery off asap and let it dry for like two days. i was able to use it for a few phone calls then it went crazy. now all that shows up on the a screen is a fatal error.
this is what is says

Error Fatal
fs_pm.c
00854
GC encounter
ed unknown p
age type 880
00344

this is blinking .
if press and hold the green call key it says

Entering
download
mode.

if i press and hold the tiny phone button on the circle options area it says

resetting.

is my phone toast or does it just need a reboot of some kind.

thanks for any info

Sounds like a firm hardware reset would be needed. Although, not sure why software would go after getting wet. It maybe an error with the hardware, something is firing. If that's the case you may out of a phone. But try to find that hard reset info.

he's right
in such 'fatal error' situations its better if u give it to the cell phone shops for servicing or some replacement of chip or battery....in case keeping the phone to dry does't work
