Whoa....I've never seen a SWCG that dirty but I bet you it works now.......The folks in here (TFP) are awesome....Anyway, I also almost bought a new cell if it wasn't for the little button that says service that I have to reset....My sidekick (my 17 year old) forgot to do it after he cleaned the cell....He was doing good there for a while.....The cell is alive and kicking.....and I'm about to do a final test in abit......Goodluck ShallowWater.....I have the same SWCG as yours.....keep 'em clean!!!!!
