I would still say that you should put the phone in the rice bag for a few days. And then try to purchase the phone via Fk but only COD.

You both have still not replied on my question.
just removing the battery and keeping it in rice bag will suffice right?

I put it for couple of days i.e. March 10th and March 11th.
It went on vacation at Service center from March 12th- March 23.
Now again from March 24 morning it's back in Rice bag.
He was exploring options :-D
Exactly!

Do you know why people recomend putting electronics in rice bag?
It happens to the best of us. You drop your phone in the toilet, or you spill something on your keyboard. Put it in a bag, fill it with rice shake it, and let the bag slightly open (you don't want it air tight) and leave it out overnight.

The rice will attract a little asian that will quietly come fix it for you while you sleep.

Ab tak to aise hi sukh jana chahiye tha!

Rice or no rice!!!

it has a small chance
moisture can be trapped for a long time,wont dry up on its own
there will be damage surely
rice is the first thing op should have done instead of the service centre

LG G2 (AT&T) unlocked 32 GB is available for 15k on geb.ebay.in

I bought my E970 from the same seller and its working fine.

What would you rather opt for, weak phone with 1 year warranty (include all of samdung too) which may require ASS or great phone without warranty which may not require ASS at all?

I will wait till Saturday or Sunday this week and then take a call.
Anyways I have one more doubt which I will ask only on Sunday coz it may confuse others if I ask now.
So for now my phone is going to enjoy in Rice bag!

Yes boss kept it in rice bag again.
I started off with keeping it in rice bag but I think couple of guys here told me to take it to Service Center ASAP.
So I followed those instructions.

Was this post intended for me?
I'm not too gung ho about LG Phones.
Last time I bought LG Optimus net I had to sell it for such a low price.
It's tough selling brands other than Samsung in the market. Atleast some time back.
Also wouldn't it be a risk getting this without warranty.
Just in case things go bad.
Also when I bought Samsung Galaxy S2 couple of years ago I know similar LG model was quite famous I think G1.
So I guess this one also will be good.

Yes, it was intended to you as you are the one who needs a good phone right now. :p

14+ months and my E970 hasn't required ASS. I took the risk of buying it and it paid off. Actually I was going to buy a Moto G back then but couldn't resist E970's hardware.

You don't buy phone to sell them unless you are a shopkeeper. You buy them for personal use. I can use my E970 for another 2-2.5 years and then give it away to a cousin or even use it as a backup phone.

Two things.
Doesn't look like I will invest on anything over 5k on a new phone now. Very tight on budget.
Also regarding selling off the phone I don't think will use phone more than 2 years also there is high probability of selling it off than giving to anybody I know.

The phone has Ripened now take it out

Tough luck.
Atleast last time before I gave it to service center folks some light was blinking on the top of the front screen.
Now I don't seen any light when I charge the phone.
Also looks like the power button has become some what loose.
Almost over nite charging has not helped anything.
Will see if I can take it to a local store today.

Well the lights are back on. When I charge the phone the green light on the top of the window is on.
I showed it to couple of other local guys. One of them is telling " Mare hue ko Zinda nahin kar sakte"
Giving one last shot with one local phone technician.

Yes maybe I need to order one very soon.
Will keep you posted on the funeral ceremony.
