Dropped Iphone 5s in water?
So, I dropped my Iphone in water yesterday… Actually in the toilet. I was really stupid. Anyways, I turned it off and stuck it in rice for 24 hours. When I took it out today it turned on was doing great. The sound was working, everything was working. Then, siri would randomly turn on and the home button wouldn t work. I shut it off again, its almost dead (the battery) and IIm really afriad it won't work. Is there anything I can do? My parents would get really mad if they found out I broke it. I know this was my fault and it was stupid. So please, if anyone knows anything else I can do please let me know!
Whatever you do do not charge it yet. It's internal parts could be wet and short electrical components! Let it sit in the rice bowl for a few more days. It's parts may not be all the way dry yet. If Siri is still turning on then you may have to tell them
Replace with Iphone 6
You can try drying it out by using a hair dryer, getting it too hot to hold but not too hot to touch. But I'm afraid the damage is done. IPhones are the worst because it is not practical to remove the battery until it dries. What you see when it dries and is recharged is what you get.
I wish the whole rice urban legend had never started. The idea was that rice would adsorb the water, but there are major problems with that idea:
*The rice has already adsorbed water from the air and is not inclined to adsorb more
*The problem is the water inside, not the water outside
*Packing in rice effectively stops circulation so the water is trapped inside
*Rice includes rice dust, which can migrate inside and make things much worse.
- I dropped my Iphone in water - no water damage showing on indicator? Here is the situation. I dropped my Iphone 5 in the toilet (I hadn't peed yet so all good there). Immediately switched it off, dried it and put it in a bag of rice. This was at about 6 p.m yesterday. This morning without turning it on I opened up the sim compartment to check the circle for water damage (checked online and apparently this is where to check for water damage). The indicator was white. It is back in the rice but I was wondering - when you think it will be ok to turn back on?
- I dropped my iPhone in water - 3 I just dropped my phone in water about a minute ago(it's 9:25 PST). I hurried up and got it out dried it off as fast as I could. It was working fine until now. It keeps popping up "charging not supported on this device" and also I just found out the sound isn't working! Now I can't even listen to all the money I spent on my songs. Is there anything to help this? I was thinking I can back it up on iTunes? Would that help? I don't know I just need major help please.
- I dropped my iphone in water and it won't turn on? I dropped my iphone in the toilet about 3 hours ago and right after i picked it up from the water, i put it in rice. The phone turned off by itself and about a few minutes ago i went to check and my phone was hot. So i'm wondering if i should keep it in the rice or do something else?
- I dropped my iphone in water a few months ago? I dropped my iphone in the toilet a few months ago i let it sit in rice for like a day maybe more. But i need it fixed. Is there anyway i can?
