IPhone 5 dropped in water

Ok, so I dropped my iPhone 5 in a pool. It was 5 feet under water for about 15 seconds. Anyways, I took it out of its case, immediately ran inside and put it in a bag of rice, but before I put in in rice, it was already spazzing out and would not turn off. I put it in the rice anyway and it started rebooting with the apple logo, but had all these codes at the top. Is my phone done and dead? Or is there still hope to leave it in the rice?

Uh oh. You may have killed your phone. The bag of rice is the best bet, but it may be futile at this point. It sounds like it shorted out. Keep it in the rice for a week.

There might be hope! Take it out of the rice, and see if it works, it's the only way you'll find out for sure.

Leave your phone in the rice for at least 24 hours and preferably 48 hours. Hopefully, after 24 -48 hours the phone will have dried out, the logic board wasn't damaged, and hopefully you can turn your phone on and it will work. If not, your next option is to see if it can be repaired without costing you an arm and a leg.

It has been 3 weeks i dropped my iphone 5 in the bath i picked it out as soon as possible like in 5 seconds and the phone was working quite good the same day. I only dried it out but hitting the phone on a towel for the water to come out. The same day at night the battery al a sudden went low and when it switched off i put it on charge but it wasn't charging. It was showing the charging sign so the screen was still working. I then ended up without a phone till i searched on the net that i should put it on the car fan which i did and when i came home and charged it it was showing that it waaas charging this time. It did turn on and was working very well till today.again i have a battery problem when i put it on charge it doent go up instead it goes down the percentage. What can i do anyone please help? Will rice still help or any other advise please

  • 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?
