This is interesting. Right on cue this week, we have an evac (no fire) as the a/c ran off the end of the runway in monsoon rain. The thread is running in Rumours & News.

The picture shows (as we now expect) someone has used their mobile BUT of the pax already out - no hand baggage.

Further, this is quoted in the thread:
According to Jet Damazo Santos, a journalist from Rappler Indonesia, passengers had to leave the aircraft using its emergency slide.

"Engine was shut immediately, we were told to leave bags, deplane asap. Firetruck was waiting. Seems handled well," she posted on her Twitter account. "Nobody seems to be hurt. Weather was bad because of #senangph. Plane came to a very abrupt stop."
My emphasis to link to this thread.
