My Freind recently brought a Nokia Mobile Phone not sure of the model but said that his mum washed his trousers with the phone in his pocket now the handset is dead, can the handset be saved?

i doubt most phones would survive a wash cycle... it would be a miracle

always check pockets before putting clothes into the wash

I found a lost fiver when i remembered i left it in one of my pockets after they had been washed. I took it upstairs and put it on window ledge above radiator and it was fine the next day. Thankfully if i have been out the first thing i do when i get home is empty all my pockets to prevent this sort of thing happening.
