ReikiAnge Posted July 24, 2009 Report Share Posted July 24, 2009 Not sure of a code but if you send a text message to someone you know (preferably someone you are with at the time!) they can tell you your number when they receive the text Also, try leaving your phone to dry out naturally and it might work again, I am sure others have recovered Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
celeste Posted July 24, 2009 Report Share Posted July 24, 2009 My friend constantly drops her phone down the lavvy, it dries out and works fine again no problem, probably smells a bit though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fee Posted July 24, 2009 Report Share Posted July 24, 2009 You could use the mobile to call your landline, then do 1471 to get the mobile number Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clare Posted July 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2009 Not sure of a code but if you send a text message to someone you know (preferably someone you are with at the time!) they can tell you your number when they receive the text of course, doh brain hasn't kicked in! Thanks will hope it all dries out over time, at the moment the on/off switch is stuck on off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
murtle Posted July 24, 2009 Report Share Posted July 24, 2009 phones are different - but there are network codes that you can use to find it - but on my sony erricson it's in settings and then phone settings. I know Nokia does have something similar. But phoning a landline is a very easy way to do it!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
