Dropped iphone in toilet: P

The other day i got out of the shower and i was heading to my room so i picked up my phone. It slipped out of my hands and fell into the toilet. It was only under for a few seconds because i went and got it, then i dried it off best i could with a towel then put it in a bag filler with rice and those little silicone packets. It was on until just a little before i put it in the bag. It was working fine, except there wasn't any sound. It sat in the bag for a few days, and now we're trying to get it to turn on again, but it won't. What do i need to do? We put some compressed air on the inside so we know that's dry, and the outside is dry, but it still won't turn on.i've tried plugging it up and everything.

please no comments like "this is why you don't take your phone near water" or anything like that.

Put in freezer

Liquid + electronic motherboard + circuit chips + time elapsed + drying = Water Damage…

Water damage + battery power OR charging power = fried phone!

no IFs ANDs or BUTs

the rice method only works 33% of the time.

you can try a complete restoral with itunes. But I doubt it will work cause it won't even turn on now, which means the mother board and/or power circuit is completely fried.

Go to Apple… And confirm the death of the iphone… And then pay $199 for an insurance replacement… If you failed to get Iphone Insurance, pay them $599

If you've tried the rice trick, there's only one more thing you can try. Set your oven at 100-150F or 'warm' and put your phone in for 30 minutes, and than allow it to cool completely before attempting to turn it on. If you don't feel comfortable putting your phone in the oven, try leaving it on your dashboard in your car for an hour in the sun on a hot day.

Lol Just got my iPhone, I'll make sure to buy a bluetooth speaker just incase I want to listen to music while taking a shower.

Answer: The mother board is fryed, please contact your Apple provider or insurance to see if you can get a replacement or get it fixed. I would consider Craigslist.com. Or self install like I do by watch a Youtube video: D

  • I dropped my iPhone in the toilet.what should i do? I dropped my iPhone in the toilet last night at 3 a.m. And i put it in minute mexican rice for the time i was asleep.

What do i need to do?
  • I dropped my IPhone in the toilet, and now my home button doesn't work? 2 days ago I dropped my IPhone 4 in the toilet, and pulled it out right away. I dried it off quickly and it was perfectly fine and nothing was wrong. But then last night, my home button started to not work unless I pressed it 10+ times… I have the accessible touch thing on, but I was wondering if could fix this myself?
