Dropped my iPhone in a cup of water
So I dropped my beloved iPhone in a cup of water.
My initial reaction was to blow dry it - realized after googling what to do & talking to friends that you are absolutely not suppose to do that. Fortunately did not do it for long. My phone is currently in a ziplock bag of rice.
However…
My phone is screen is still on
I tried turning off the phone, but it keeps gliching and turning back on. It will not stay turned off!
I tried to take out the sim card & did not have the proper tools to do so with, so it is still in there. And so is the mechanical pencil led that is now stuck in there after my awful attempt:/
Yeah… Not exactly the smoothest night for me…
Any advice? Is it okay that my phone is still turned on in the bag of rice?
Just wait, I think you're doing everything you could.
But if you're under ATT go online because they offer good deals like new phones for cheap or you may report it lost or stolen and get a new one free if it's still eligible.
Leaving it alone at this point is better than messing with it. Let it sit in the rice for a long time--at least 12 hours. Let the battery drain completely down. Then try.
Hold the home and turn off switch until it turns off (rebooting) then do the same to turn it back on, if it doesn't work you're quite possibly screwed.
- Who can I watch the World Cup Qualifaction games? I want to watch it on my IPhone for free. Is that possible in know that their are a lot of Major mews stations covering it now but are there any on the iPhone? I saw Iran win against South Korea today on YouTube but it was only the high lights.
- Where to listen to FIFA confederation cup? I'm sitting here watching the Spain v Italy game live over the Internet on espn. For the life of me I can't find a way to stream live audio of the finals this weekend. Just seems a bit odd to me that I can watch it for free but can't listen to a broadcast on my iphone while I have my earbuds in at work. Anyone have an app, station or legite (no downloads, tracking or pirating required) website for me?

- How to Siri: Remind me when my last cup of coffee was? How can I dictate with Siri into iPhone (6S) so that it stores the last time I had a cup of coffee? The reason is I'm trying go cut down my caffeine intake, and so before I have another cup, I want to ask Siri, "When was my last cup of coffee?" (eg 5 hours later). I don't want to do it with a pencil and paper or enter it into a note. If there's a way to use Siri in that capacity, that would really be awesome to learn.
