Hello, I need advice on how to repair my phone. I dropped it in water in October. The screen stoppped working after a few hours and I just assumed it was a gone-er. Well just a few minutes ago I decided to see if it still worked, just for fun. At first there was nothing, then I held it over a heater for a bit and tried turning it on, and the red light in the top left corner came on, but nothing else. That is as far as it will get. So obviously there is something going on in there that still works. PLEASE tell me it can be repaired?! This is my favorite phone, millions of times better than my current Samsung Propel. Any suggestions or advice are GREATLY appreciated.
