Does anyone happen to have an unused, but working t-mobile cell phone they would be willing to part with?
My phone got fried when my tent got flooded at SS4 (despite my efforts to make sure it was in a safe, going to stay dry place (in the hanging pocket of my tent), but I got it so bad even the inside of my messenger bag got wet) and I really don't have any money to replace it. I tried drying it out in rice to no avail.
I was wondering if anyone could help me out here.

I am on t mobile but I don't have any extra phones, sorry.

However, in the meantime you could try sticking the phone (open) in a bag of rice and seeing if it doesn't help suck out all the moisture.

buy a cheap tmobile prepaid phone at Radioshack or whatever.... until you can replace it. Unless you really really dont have money

I'll second the rice thing-- just a few weeks ago I had an old phone go through the dishwasher and seem totally dead, but 3 days buried in a cup of rice brought it back to life and it seems fine.
