Put it in an airtight container and pour uncooked rice on top so the iphone is completely covered.replace the lid… Keep it in the container for at least two days. Do not turn on the iphone until the water evaporates or you could damage it

There's no fast way, it needs to be absorbed and evaporated, the best option is to turn it off and put it in a bowl of uncooked rice and leave it there for at least 48 hours. Attempting to use it when it isn't fully dry will cause a short and will fry the components inside.

Dismantle the phone, disconnect the battery and leave it in a warm airy place for at least two WEEKS.

The effects of rice (or any other desiccant) on a phone that is still assembled will be near zero.

If it actually has *any* water inside it, leaving the battery connected or trying to use it before all traces of contamination and moisture have been removed are good ways of ensuring it's damaged beyond repair.

I've had to leave a completely uncased circuit board over heat almost too high to stand for four weeks on one occasion before it started working properly again.

Applying power while there's any trace of moisture or residue causes electrolytic corrosion - basically "reverse electroplating" which destroys the circuit board and component joints.

It looks like some form of mould, but is metal salts that used to be the electrical connections…

See the image below as a good example of the effect:
If you don't want your phone to look like that, open it up and allow a couple of weeks drying time.

  • What is the fastest way to transfer all the photos/videos from iPhone to PC? I really need to move all my pictures and videos on to my laptop but every time I try to do this iTunes freezes and ends up failing. I have 5,500 pics/vids. I have tried two other apps/programs - "Sync Photos" and "Photo Wi-Fi" are the app names. Those also didn't work. One of my friends said it would be easiest to just get an external hard drive. Hoping to get some useful insight on this as I need to sell my iPhone soon and would like to keep all my memories!
