Calling all you Mobile Phone Engineers out there! 



I need some advice…

 



Without going into great detail, I’ve had a bit of an accident with my mobile phone (a six year old Nokia 6111) involving my rucksack and a bottle of very sugary grape juice with a leaky cap. I think the juice has infiltrated the insides as the phone is now doing some very strange things…







 

If I take the battery out, take the phone apart and swish it around in a bucket of soapy water, let it all dry thoroughly for a few days then put it back together again, what are the chances of it working afterwards without wiping off the data held internally on the memory chips etc?

 

Now I know you’re all going to say ... “Just buy a new phone you cheapskate”    but my father has promised to give me his iPhone 4 when he upgrades to an iPhone 5 later this year so I’m holding out for that!
