help!! my razor fell into the pool please help


Hi
My name is brad and i really need help and i want my black razor back!!
Ok it started out as me buying the phone with my own money. im only 13 years old and have been saving a long time for this phone. So i went over to my friends house to go swimming and i put it in my bathing suite. and everyone knows that the razor is flat and you cant feel it. So i jumped in the pool and i couldent feel it in my pocket and i was only in the pool for like 50 sec till i took it out of the pocket and dryed it of. But then i tryed turning it on and it wouldent work. then 3 weeks later after drying out it turned on but it said insert sim card and the sim card is in. So then i turned the phone of and im letting it charge now and it says charge complete then like 10 sec latter it says charging. please i need help im only 13 and i saved up my alowence for this phone and it is going to take a long time to save for another one please help!!!!!
sincerly,
brad

Hate to tell you this Brad but I think you may be SOL as your phone circutry may be broken. One thing that came to my mind is going to your provider and getting a new SIM Card. If it ask for a SIM Card and a new one works then no problem. But water and cellphones don't match wich is why I think they should invet a water-proof case for the phone. Anyhow sorry to hear about your RAZR hope you can get it fixed without throwing out a whole lot of moolah.

i assume you didn't have insurance on your phone... that really sucks. water damage ruins phones most of the time. if you save up for another phone, razr or not, get insurance on it!

yah that is a good idea lol but i took my sim card out of it and put it into my old phone so at least i could have a phone so it is something to do with the phone not reading the sim card

I agree! I used to work for a store that also sell cell phones. I always hear sad stories about bad things that happen to their phone.

I highly recommend getting it.

Not to be rude, but you probably don't want to get another Razr. They are notoriously fragile phones. Maybe you should look into something a little more durable (and less expensive) until you are a little older. while I am sure this was just an accident, trust me, you will have a lot more accidents while you are a teenager. This is the reason I won't get my daughter a Razr until she is at least 17; I know how she takes care of her stuff.

Yup. Some of my friends like the RAZR, but say it's too delicate. What about trying a SE, perhaps the Z520a or even the W600i. I always take the W600 whenever I'm doing something active and it hasn't failed me yet.

Too bad to hear about your phone, but that's just reality. Also one thing to consider, water damaged phones are tricky. They might work for a while then just quit without any notice. If you didn't take your phone apart and have it dried out extensively, the phone more than likely got damaged when you turned on the phone. And since you were in chlorinated water (pool), that does more damage to the phone. There usually is no way to fix a water damaged phone successfully...they always have problems later. Another way to save money is to buy another RAZR with a cracked screen and use yours to swap on the other one. At least your a hard worker, that says something about your character.

Hey, how old was this phone? If you bought it within the last two weeks then you can still add insurance.
