[Q] My IS has been wet. What now?

My device has been wet by me around one month ago. It seems to be running as it should but I still wonder if may have wrecked something up. If this happened to you please tell your experience.

If it dried properly you should be fine.

Put it in a bowl of uncooked rice,the rice will hopefully draw out the water, works with most phones surprisingly not sure bout smart phones tho but surely worth a try....

I see you didn't understand. It has been one month and it seems to be running all ok so my question is if in near future it would be dead or not?!
Sent from my HTC Incredible S using XDA App

If its working good now chances it will b all ok but maybe rust could form in da future which will cause it to prob fail, hopefully that answered ur question !!!

It's not going to rust if it's already dry.

Metal won't rust without an acid.
Sent from my Incredible S using xda premium

Mine went for a swim in my waterproofs pocket 9 months ago riding to work in a storm!! Initially there were a few screen display issues but after sitting it in a dry warm place for half a day I've had no problems at all.

Moisture can rust the metal! (off topic)

i think, if you break something, you would already know about it.

It could take years to see the change but you will probably see it. About half a year I somehow got some Sprite trough my jack plug (don't ask) in my IncS and some day the battery started messing around. But besides that it still works

It's been already over a year and I'm quite satisfied with build quality of this phone.

Nexus 4 replacement dropped...kinda

OK so I got two nexus 4's and I just moved to T-Mobile and honestly I need two more phones and it kinda doesn't make sense to buy any used phone with the nexus price so low.
So if I was to get a replacement and hypothetically dropped it and wanted to keep my phone could Google just charge me for it and I get to keep it. It kinda the same as buying it right.

Lol its kind of a good idea i don't feel like there's anything morally wrong about it except lying to get the first RMA cause its not like he's not gonna pay for it and yea he's skipping the line but he already waited too but hey that's just my two cents bro just make sure they don't ruin your credit when u keep it Lol

I mean this is hardly fraud Google made it this way. I have no problem paying for the phone.

LG rep visit

My LG rep came by today to show us the new optimus G pro and during this he showed us the Antutu score from his demo device. 19000something. He asked if my phone could get that so I ran it. And during the test I said to him "it's on battery saver mode so I'm not sure how well it's going to compare considering it's the same cpu" after the test finished I showed him the score 23000+. He was kinda speachless and started rambling about something else then asked me to text him a screenshot of that score.
Lol just thought I would share this visit with you guys

Oh lg reps... Though the g pro is still a sweet phone regardless. Benchmarks don't count for a whole lot.

Hey guys I have a slim build for your phone but don't have a device to test it with m7wls I build for the sghi577 and the sprint s2 so I know a thing or two about building ROMs I need someone to test this who knows how to use adb and can pull log cats etc I used cm device trees so it should be solid any takers

I'm not rooted or unlocked. I love the feel of this device the way it is. I know the 4.2 update is coming very soon so I'm waiting for that before doing anything. The wait is killing me but I'm a trooper lol

Never been a fan of LG phones. Nice to read this. Makes me snicker!

Hyping over getting 19,000?
And the LG is clocked the same as the One?
So, would pulling 20,000, still higher than his phones score, while under clocked to 1.3ghz be a burn and a half or what? Lol
I'm not sure power saver mode will throttle the cpu if it's a custom kernel. I've checked a few times and it seems to stop working in that respect. Same with tasker. I can't control cpu speeds with tasker using a custom.

My Note 2 is awesome. But so is my HTC One. The LTE is definitely better on my Note 2. You can't ask a question like that in this section though. Biased opinions round here. It all comes down to preference.

Sense >>> Touchwiz
I don't care how good a Samsung phone is, touchwiz is pure crap.

If better LTE is something you're interested in.. Then trade.. I'd jump on it if a friend would offer me that trade. HTC One destroys it in almost all other categories though.

OP, Sir you just have to make the "call" yourself and figure it out for yourself. And since these type of threads tend to burn-up before take off....
Thread Closed & Thanks.

Got my blue one :D

Besides aesthetics, are there any differences between the models?
Im coming from the original epic 4g so this is a super upgrade lol.
Ive seen some of the guides and am kinda confused....i want to root my phone and take stuff like facebook off, but i really dont understand how to go about it with the bootloader.
Never had to worry about that with my epic, so im pretty ignnorant. Do i HAVE to unlock bootloader? And if i do, are there
any drawbacks to using htcdev to do it?
Im still getting used to the forum layoit....not sure ive seen all relevant info because theres just so much with 2 development pages lol dont really know where i should be looking...
Sent from my HTCONE using xda-developers app

The two development sections are mainly for rom development, so you won't find what you need there. You should find the answers to most of your questions in Q&A or General

Woot! I came from the Epic as well. Welcome to the One. In about 2 weeks, if you still have the Epic, pick it up. I guarantee your first thought will be "how did I ever get by with such a small device?" Lol. I've been rooted since it was available and the only drawback to dev unlock is the wiping process.
This thing isn't quite as impossible to brick as the Epic but its close. RUU can save most anything but I wouldn't experiment with trying to brick it
I'd give Sense 5 ROMs a try first and see how you like it. If that's not for you then you've got similar ROMs the Epic had. And CM10.2 is extremely stable over here. We're hoping for a 4.3 Sense 5 leak/OTA soon as well. Otherwise follow the guides and you should be good.
And I don't believe there are differences besides appearance.

They're a Best Buy exclusive color. Metallic Blue. Pretty legit!

Damn I'm strongly considering switching to the blue HTC one now. I just got my black one last week, and I know I have 14 days. You guys think I should do it?

I'm a week out from my upgrade, and I was originally in the black camp. I'm definitely getting the blue. Its such a good looking phone. Also, I'm holding out hope that the blue might be a little tougher finish than the black, and I swear it feels different in the hand, a little more.. rough? but I could just be going crazy.

I have the Black HTC One for about a month now, no scratches or any issues!

I ordered my Blue one from bestbuy.com on the 15th and it still hasn't shipped :\
Contacted customer support and they said its been backordered on a first-come-first-serve basis. Is it really that popular or am I getting screwed over somehow?
