How to get water out of my iPhone? - 1

I have an iPhone 5s and I went to the pool the other day and my iPhone was in a life proof case. I guess the headphone part of it was a little broken and some water got in my phone. When I dried it the screen was blurry and 3D and there's a water spot on the top right. Everything else worked fine. About an hour after my phone got wet I put it in a bag of rice. It's been about 30 hours and my phones still in 3D. I don't know what to do now. Would Apple be able to repair it? And for how much? And is there another way to fix it?

You did the right thing wait a little longer maybe 24 hours then call an expert and expect a high bill sorry!

Flip the screen up to access the key pad… No wait, that's my phone.

Depends on the total damage. It's not gonna be cheap either way. And water damage is always a tough one because it damages more than you can see. Best is to just buy a new phone.

Rice is a pretty lousy desiccant. Molecular Sieve is the best. But if you can buy it locally, remove the rice and nuke it for about 2-mins in a glass bowl. That'll drive out the moisture in the rice. Let it cool and then add your phone.

Molecular Sieve is $20 a pound and pulls about 700% more moisture than rice

  • My iPhone has water in it how can I get the water out? I got a little bit of water in it at my pool and it shutoff within a minute or so, it won't turn back on and I have had it in rice for over 10 hours.
  • Iphone water indicators not pink, still possible water damage? Hypothetically, if you got your iphone 4s wet, but the water indicators are not triggered at all, is it still possible the phone has water damage on the inside that apple would find if they took it apart?
  • I dropped my iphone 4 in water and my rear camera has water in it I dropped my phone in the toilet, as soon as it landed i grabbed it back out. I was running late so I just dried it off and left. An hour later I see my rear camera is blurry when trying to take a picture and I look at the camera and it's all foggy from moisture! Like a bathroom mirror after a shower! How can I rid of that?! The rest of my phone is working fine, just that foggy camera…
  • How to get water out of my iPhone? I dropped my phone in water and we took it to Verizon and they somehow fixed it but you can still see a water mark in the phone when you turn the phone on, and the cameras not working. Is there any way I could actually get water out of my phone? Or will I have to just get a new phone?
