How long should i let my iphone sit in rice?

I dropped my iphone in the toilet for about 4 seconds, turned it on, it didn't work. So i held down the home button and the power button for a long time and the apple just stayed on there a flickered a bit, and an hour after sitting in rice it didn't turn on at all (I know i was stupid for turning it on, but at the time i was at my friends house and my parents needed to call me)

I didn't take the battery out either ( i didn't have the right tools.) So its been in rice all evening now.

That happened to my iPod! I put it in the rice over night and then let it sit while I was at school too. So at least a day. It will work fine after that.

Just leave the phone untouched until tomorrow and use your friend's phone in the meanwhile.

If it still doesn't turn on, I suggest talking to an Apple Representative either on a support chat on the Apple. Inc website, scheduling a Genius Bar appointment at your local Apple store, or dialing an Apple Store's phone number to connect to a representative.

The longer the better, but typically most of/all of the moisture is gone after 24 hours.

As Long as you can live without it! Try to go for a week, because even the slightest drop of water can cause corrosion or a short circuit.

I fell in the lake and my 2 friends fell too my friend was crying like a little baby and my other friend broke a window with a medicine ball and football like dang i really need some new friends.

  • How long should i put my iPhone in rice after water Damage? I had my phone in my pocket and without noticing i jumped in my pool with my buddies, I stayed in there for about 1:30 minutes and I got out of the pool immediately and tried to turn it off but my iphone didn't respond so I took the SIM out and dried it and placed it on a bag of rice with silica gel packs. How long should i keep it there? Or should I call a repair company?
  • 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?
