I would have remote wiped my phone by the time they had cooled it that much wink

I wonder what prompted them to try freezing one?

 

Desperate to get into my address book maybe!! Smiley LOL

 

I have Prey Project so as MI5 says the data could be removed before they got that far.

Does that mean Android phones are 'cool' to use !

I once watched a you tube video where a Chinese dude put an iPhone 5 in a pan of boiling water for 3 minutes removed it and it still worked.

Placed it back in and the temperature warning came up and the phone fried.

Funny thing was it was his brothers handset {apparently !!}
