the only chance for u to make it work again is first off:

disassemble the first cover,(i believe its 7 screws) unplug the battery, and then put the phone along with its battery in a bowl filled up with rice (not cooked) and keep it for like 48hrs... just bear this if u want to rescue ur phone from being bricked lately Slightly_smiling_Face


this method was tested on some phones and it successfully survided after being sank in water.

did u try air/hair blower?

if no, make a try with a cold air blowing.. if its possible disassemble the phone apart until u reach the display part....

here is the disassemble tutorial in a PDF file Slightly_smiling_Facehttp://www.sonymania.cz/storage/1331...peria_s_wi.pdf

Good luck buddy Slightly_smiling_Face
