I dropped my iphone into the toilet and did the rice thingy for 3days?
Okay so my iphone 5 dropped into the toilet 3 days ago and i researched and i did the rice thing and left it for 3days. Then i charged it and it didn't fully come on but i could see only a little bit of the top of the screen which had the connection, time and battery percentage. Then i did the screenshot button and i could see the screen, however it just flashed the screen… What should i do? Should i put it in the rice or should i restore it? Currently i'm restoring it on dfu mode (using my computer).
Please Help i need a person who's good with iPhones. If someone helps me ill give them 2dollars in Amazon gift card: P just put your email… Please Helep!
Pull that battery and get the rest of the moisture out of the circuitry with a hair dryer set on low heat. Let it blow on there for about an hour. Adding electricity before all of the moisture is gone can be fatal. At least you know it didn't fry, but you still have some moisture that only moving air will remove. Not rice and capillary action.
The iPhone 5 is the easiest of the iPhone line to open.
I take no responsibility for anything you may damage in the process.
Two small screws on the bottom. Use a suction cup near the bottom to pop it up. But be careful and slow! Only open it enough till you can see the top start to hinge open. You will see flex cables running from the screen to the main board. You will see a metal cap covering the cables on the main board. 3 screws and it comes off. Now you can pop each cable up using a small screwdriver. The screen is now separated. Check that it is clean of any corrosion on both the main board and the flex cables. If there's corrosion find some isopropyl alcohol (the higher the alcohol content the better as it dries faster) and clean the corrosion. Reverse the steps to put it back together. And try again.
Usually that will fix the exact problem you described.

- I dropped my iPhone in the toilet and put it in rice I took it out of the rice about 45 minutes later and tried to turn it on but then it start to sizzle does that mean it's done?
- I dropped my iPhone 4 into a toilet? All the buttons work and I have reception, but there are a few spots on the screen that are darker/lighter than the rest. I've had it in rice for a few hours, and the spots are getting smaller. The whole screen was messed up when I turned it on, so I was just wondering if they were permanent or if they'll go away eventually.
- Dropped my iPhone in toilet, put it in rice, started working the. It turns off again? I've heard I can get a new iPhone for free at the apple store. My friend got here for free. Anyways when the phone was on, there was blue lines on the screen. So will I get it for free or? Btw I still have warranty
