Carry a small, flask-like vessel of cold salty water, and when the
caller has finished the call, ask to borrow their phone...and place it
in said water.
No more calls on that journey
I had a Nokia 3310 which fell in the toilet (still not quite sure how).
For reasons of hygiene, I washed it very thoroughly, and then took it
apart as much as I could, thinking that the components are mostly
sealed in plastic and/or non-corrosive.
I then laid all the little, thoroughly-washed, bits out to dry for two
days.
Then I put it back together again, and it didn't work.
So the water may not need to be salty.
Having witnessed a Motorola bobbing up and down inside a pint, may I suggest
that lager-flavoured water can stop a phone from working.
