Last year, I got a nice new Motorola something or other.
3 Days later, I forgot it was in the tool pocket on my insulated work pants. I put the pants in the washing machine, and about 1 minute later I realized my mistake.
I ran downstairs,and grabbed the soaking wet phone from the machine.
I opened it, and had a blank white illuminated screen. I left it on my pellet stove until the fog cleared out of the window. (2-3 hours)
To my surprise, the next morning I got it to come on after re-booting it. It worked for 2 months, and then quit rather abruptly.
I learned about the red dot thing when I went to try and give them a story at the phone store. I had seen the red, but didn't know it turns red when exposed to water.
I don't think it's the battery, so much as the electronics inside. Have fun shopping!
