I dropped my iphone 4s in water, how to fix it?

Today during school my iphone 4s fell out of my pocket and into the toilet. I took it out immediately and dried it off, and i took off the screen protector to air it out a bit. It worked fine at first but now the home button won't work. I'm in my messages and i can't leave my messages because the home button won't work. As soon as i got home i put it in a bowl of uncooked rice. Will this help? Will the home button work again?

Well you should keep the phone in the bowl of rice for about a day or 2 it will dry the water, if this does not work you may need to consult someone to fix it, since it is just the home button not working the price may not be very expensive prob around 50 dollars.

It sounds crazy, but put it in a bowl of uncooked rice and cover It up completely and pack It in pretty good. This saved my iPhone. The rice absorbs water.
Hope I helped! It helped my phone!

The exact same happened to me today, but unlike you (miraculously) mine is working fine. But since your problem is physical, probably the button is stuck with the water suction. Keep it in rice, if not, take it to get fixed

  • 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?
