Hi,
I almost had a heart attack 2 hours ago when I accidentaly left my ux50 on 5mm height of water for a few seconds. when I removed it from the pond I quickly dried it with a towel then with a a hair drier.
When it look dried I turned it on to test and for a moment I thought everything was ok then when I tried to take a quick photo the camera went mad and didn't stop taking photos. I had to soft reset but then ux50 wouldn't reboot. It freezed at the boot screen. I followed another thread and disconnected the battery by carefully removing the back cover.
Hopefully everything seemed ok after this. I assured that everything was dry inside and close the ux50 again, sync and everything was on place just like before the accident.
BUT.... now I noticed that not everything was ok... I couldn't scroll up and down using the scroller although I can press the button and it respond...
This might be a difficult question to answer but, does this sound like a irreversible problem? might it be just a loose connection of the scrller that I caused while dissambeling the clié?
