I dropped my iphone 5 in the toilet? - 3
I was at school and I dropped my phone in the toilet. I immediately took it out and dried it off with paper towels and put it under the hand dryer for a minute or so. It worked fine. As soon as I got home I put it in rice it is now night time around 12 or so and it's working fine besides my camera has moisture inside of it so it's all foggy.
Is my phone okay?
Put it BACK into the Rice- until You get up in the Morning. MAY-be it'll clear up your Camera Screen- too!
Keep in the rice until the fog goes away. You don't want it to mess up the items in your phone
No, your phone is not ok. There's water still in your phone. The more you use it the more the water will move around and continue to damage other components.
for your best chance to save a wet electronic device…
1. Do not turn it on or try to charge
2. If possible, remove the battery
3. Contact TekDry - they have a patented process that will remove all of the water for sure - typically in about 30 minutes, without taking it apart.
With rice or desiccant, it takes much longer (days) and you don't know if/when your device is dry. Each time you try to power it on to find out if it is dry, you do more damage to your device. Plus while your phone sits in rice for days your device continues to corrode and you get rice particles inside your phone creating more issues.
Rice (or silica gels/desiccants) does absorb water, but only when in direct contact. Rice outside of you device will not draw water from within your device. If the humidity is extremely high it is possible rice will draw some water from the air, however the humidity around your wet phone is not going to get that high.

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?
