How long do i leave my iphone in rice? - 1
So… I dropped my phone in the toilet but I heard the splash and grabbed it literally a second or two later. I didn't know what to do, but when it asked my to power it off, I pressed cancel. Then my phone looked normal for a minute, then went dark. I tried turning it on but the screen just messed up and turned off again with the little apple.
I put it in some rice at around 4 or so and want to see if the rice worked-- if I take it out will it do anything to my phone? It's been 4 hours now… Thanks!
For the night!
Take it out after 5 hours then blow dry the inside by the speaker hole charger hole etc the stick back in the rice over night (blow dry if you have to again
I know about the story of leaving drenched electronics in rice. It really doesn't work… The case is basically sealed with very small opening on few places. If water got inside, there's no way rice will pull the water out and fix the problem. If water gets in between places, there's no way it's coming out.
Someone with an ability to open the case could blow away any remaining water and dry it though you must act fast. My suggestion is to take it to an independent repair place and see what they can do for you.
Be more careful with the replacement.
Big mistake you turned it on, once your cell goes wet the first thing to do is just remove the battery and do not try to switch on cause then you actually cause the serious damage which is the A/C goes off for most phones and then wht they are going to tell you is that you need to change the whole mother board and that cost alot of money, however right now just for the sake of trying though i'm afraid i can tell you, you already messed it up by trying to switch it on but you do not need to keep it in rice just remove the battery remove all covers you can take off and put it in hot area but not directly to sun light it should be exposed but not directly to the sun you can keep it even for 5 days even to ensure the water is dried up or you can use the hair dryer for that matter, people when your phone accidently falls in water just remove the battery and do not try to switch on that's what make it go bad for good
Well, your first mistake was not turning it off right away, but the same thing happened to me. I left it in until it worked again.
- Will I mess up my battery in any way if I leave my iPhone 5 dead for a long time? I was grounded and my mom has my phone and I don't know when ill get it back but its dead and has been for two days. If I leave it dead for too long, will it affect my battery or phone in any way?
- Water logged iphone? How long do I leave it in rice? My iphone SE was sitting in a big puddle on the counter for about 15 min before I noticed. The phone was still in working condition but had a few dark and blurry spots on the screen. I went to get rice and the spots seemed to have spread. I put rice in a ziplock bag and completely covered my phone in the rice. The bag was sealed and I'm wondering how long I need to leave the phone inside? I need to use my phone the next day and I'm not sure if it will be alright.
- How long should I leave my wet iphone in rice? I was pouring milk into my cereal bowl this morning, and the milk container ended up pouring all on my iphone 4S. When it got wet, it wasn't completely soaked, but it's not like it was just a splash of milk either. I think the milk managed to get in some of the cracks. I really don't think it is as bad as an iphone being dropped in water completely, so I'm thinking that I don't need to keep it in rice for as long. How long should I keep it in the rice?
- How long should I leave my wet iphone in rice? - 1 It only had a little water on it, maybe a 1/8th of a cup. I dried it off as fast as I could, and turned it off. I got my brother to take it apart, and dry some of the main parts. The back is still off of it, and both of them are sitting in the rice. Since it wasn't dropped in water, and its apart in rice, how long should i leave it?
