I think I Bricked my Tablet... in a different way..

If you're going to make a habit of dunking your tablet, maybe you should get in a stock of Spanish Calasparra rice, highly recommended for it's liquid absorbing properties!

Well, I give up.
It has not gotten any better or worse.
It looks lousy, but it works...
Performance is fine, just when it displays white, it has grey blotches everywhere.
The lines are gone though.

Before, only one part of the screen had problems, as I put in the rice, it spread to the whole screen.

A lesson for all.... tablets and water don't mix.....

It's nice to know the rice technique works. Thanks for reporting back, it might help someone with a similar problem somewhere down the road.

Just as long as they remember that it's UNcooked rice!

I guess the problem could have been worse if had been dropped somewhere other than in the sink. http://www.androidtablets.net/forum/...le-toilet.html

Doh!!!!

Just joking.

By the way, the screen is getting better on its own. At the rate it is going, it will fix itself in a week or two...I hope.

The screen is now 100% back to normal.
Everything is good!
