I see a lots of posts from people complaining about phones ruined after being wet. I have saved many pieces of electronic equipment this way (including a turntable that was underwater for a week and an R/C car when the batteries leaked on the board).
The electronics will not be harmed by the water. What WILL harm them is trying to turn them on while circuits are shorted by the water. So DON’T try to turn the phone on until you have done this.
Scientific fact: Pure water does not conduct electricity. It’s the impurities in it that conduct. Salt is an excellent conductor, and so is saltwater. So if your phone got wet with saltwater or water with bleach or chlorine in it (ie.- municipal water… chlorine is a “salt”), the first thing to do is remove the battery and SIM card and immerse the phone in distilled water to get the salt out. Distilled water is available in any drugstore and most auto parts stores. Read the rest of this entry …
This hack works on my W580, I think it works on every model of Sony Ericsson phone too.
What you need to do is:
press any number from 1 - 9 and then press the # key
(eg: Press “2″ and then press “#”)
What do you see? it displays the last 250 calls made from your sony ericsson! all the contacts from your sim card.
