Last night my 2 year old decided to dump half of his milk bottle on my phone, now a few of the keys stick and the trackball isn't working. Any suggestions on how to get it cleaned up or what to use? Thanx. Veritasaequita

I would assume that you would need to take the phone apart and carefully clean everything.

You can use google to find the HTC repair manual online that details how to disassemble the phone. The manual is actually pretty good even for the technically challenged. Like supreme said, you probably have to clean every part because it wasn't water so its not like you can just let it dry out like if spilled water on it. Be careful what you use as cleaners tho and make sure you are grounded when you do it.
In the end.....remember not to cry over spilled milk (sorry, had to do it)

BTW, early this morning while I was working on this, my wife came in and asked what I was doing.
"Just working on a problem we're having with our phones."
"Who's 'we'?"
"Me & a bunch of people who have the same phone."
Then she gave that look (you know the one) and said "Put away the rest of the Christmas stuff and clean the house today."

I've just spent last 10 minutes trying to login here. Everytime i inputed confused my username and pass, i got the "thank you for logging in" screen, and the next screen was the usual forum screen, but unlogged. And i kept doing it a couple more times. I already thought the board is going down, and after trying everything i could, i looked at the address bar. Turns out while i was looking at that french topic about blackstone games that was translated via google or smth else, i clicked one of the links to xda there, and kept on reading xda from the translator. Only, there was no google in sight, just plain old xda. Weird.
And i feel so dumb right now
And i feel so dumb about posting this thread, but i have to. The very first thing i thought about after the incident was "I have to start a thread about this"
Anyone else had an "I'm an idiot" moment lately?
nope...but congratulations!

Hi. My name's Stuart, and I'm an idiot.
Took my bike for an MOT this morning (Thunderace, if you're interested). As the tester rode it onto the apparatus past me I noticed the rear shock squeaked a bit - hadn't noticed it before with a helmet on, windblast and the bulk of the bike blocking the noise from the drivers seat. All through the test, I was as nervous as an expectant father, was the examiner going to find something wrong that I hadn't forseen? Was there going to be some new strange test that the bike failed? Eventually, the tester came over to me and said it had passed.
Why did I then find myself saying "So the squeak from the shock wasn't a problem?"?!?!
He hadn't heard it but me asking prompted him to spend 5 minutes more examining it to find out if it was a problem or not!
That's my "I'm an idiot" moment for the day. I'm sure I'll be back tomorrow with another....
Sorry guys maybe this useless but I could'nt live witout sharing it to you.
So funny

You people have any of your own?

I would start with bamboo splinters under their fingernails and then wire cutters to pinch pieces of them off while spraying acid into their eyes. Then I would give them a good old fasioned flogging and cover them in salt. I would mutilate every bone in their body, slowly breaking them one by one with a hammer, then throw them into a culdern of boiling oil and watch them burn until I was satisfied with the pain I inflicted. Finally after removing them from the oil and peeling off all their skin I would allow them to succumb to infection and die of septicemia. I would then defile their body with my fecies, and feed them to pigs. F**king Ubuntu!

I am trying to create a boot.img for a kernel that I just mod'ed. This is my first time using Ubuntu and I am getting so frustrated trying to figure it out.
I see, i haven't done that before, so i can't really help you, but have you asked for help in ubuntuforums.org?

No, I will figure it out I am sure. Just gotta get with the learning curve. I thought that figuring out the C++ to mod the kernel was the hard part, now this... lol.

We all want to take a Galaxy S5 and start washing it under the sink. Okay, fine.
But please remember to not use any detergents, window cleaner or any other chemicals. Use only water and a soft terry cloth towel. The oleophobic coating on your screen can be damaged by soaps. This means your screen will show fingerprints much sooner than it would by simply wearing out over time.
You can re-apply an oleophobic coating using 3rd party solutions such as that found on Amazon. But most/all 3rd party oleophobic coatings have mixed reviews.
So, no soap for your S5!
Did you really create a thread for this? Jesus talk about upping a post count. Nobody here wants to go wash their phone with soap...

I've seen it mentioned by 5-10 different posters so far.
It's a water resistant phone.
Heck, I know I'm going to do it (but without soap). hahah
But I'm glad you were able to increase your post count by finding something to ***** about. :good:

You should down your post count buddy, it's not clear for everyone just what kind of liquids the S5 is resistant against.
Yes. you are right. Sometime i see some technician use liquid in on phone.. Thanks for suggestion..

If you have a case on the phone does that matter? In terms of water-resistance.

NO, but its important to check to make sure the backing is secured correctly. With a case you might not even know it came undone.
