Ok, so my phone got dropped in water and I immediately took it apart, put it in rice and left in hotpress overnight. Miraculously, it's working fine now with the exception that WiFi and bluetooth don't switch on (on the top menu they're a lighter shade of green than those turned on, when I go to settings and click on WiFi settings it says error underneath).

After googling I tried re-installing the wifi driver by dialling *#*#526#*#* but it just comes up as 'driver loading unsuccessful'.

I know I can live without the wi-fi, and I'm grateful enough to have my phone restored but if there are *any* suggestions for getting the wi-fi back up and running I'd really appreciate them.

Thanks!
