Please anybody help me!!!!!!!!
See what happened was I was walking home from work one day and it started raining very hard and I had forgotten that my cellphone which I just got two months ago was in my pocket. Somebody had called me and that was how I realized that my phone was wet. I ran home and tryed wipeing it. I pluged in the charger and it didnt work. So then I took the battery out and went and blow dryed it with cold air. I then went to check if it worked and it did but the problem now is that my battery doesnt charge. Everytime I take the charger out the phone turns off. My volume for the rings goes up but doesnt go down. When people call me the phone rings once and then turns off completely unless the phone is open. I dont know what I should do. Everyone telling to just go to the store and lie and say I dont know what happened to it.But I am afraid they will notice. I have no insurance and cant get any because they told me that its been past a month and they dont give it out anymore. I called sprint on the phone and told them that the phone dont charge and that I didnt know why. They told me that I had to bring it into the story so that it can be checked. Im afraid to do this. How does the sprint store check it. The phone doesnt look damaged. It looks brand new.
what can they tell me if I go to the store and they know that the phone got wet?
Can they open up the phone in the store?
Please help me!!!!!!!

i really dont know what you should do, but its very likely that they will see water damage to the phone.

Most of the time there is alittle strip on the phone that will change colors if it becomes wet so they can easily tell

unfortunately there isn't much you can do. They will be able to tell if the phone has gotten wet.
I just hope you bought phone insurance, as it sounds like your going to need a new phone.....sorry.

the only suggestion I have is take the battery out and let the phone layy flat for about a week.. dont turn on the phone while its still wet because that might short circuit the phone
