I need advice on my water damaged iPhone 5?

About 2 days ago I dropped my iPhone into the toilet for about 2 seconds. Most of the phone survived except the speakers and my signal connection. The speakers were dead until about 2 hours ago but my phone can't connect to any 4g or Verizon Wireless network. Please leave feedback and advice on what I should do besides going to a local store or replacing the phone.

I think you should've put your phone in rice right away there's nothing you can do and if there was I'd get a professional cuz I wouldn't want to mess up my phone use your guarantee if its finished just buy a refurbished one that's what I did I experienced this too

Get a large ziploc bag full of uncooked rice and put the phone in there for a few days. The rice is a desiccant and will absorb any water and hopefully the phone will still work. HTH

All you can do is dry it out several days and hope water didn't' ruin it. There's no magic fix it if its water damaged.

  • Need some serious advice about my iphone 4s? I dropped my iphone 4s in the water a few days ago. I left my phone in rice like people told me to for two days, but it doesn't seem to work. My contract ends in november but they said i can change my phone on july 14. I have verizon btw. I have like three weeks left, but i have some very important stuff in my phone and i'm expecting some calls/texts. Will verizon fix my phone, but more importantly, can they fix my phone? Or is it dead already? any advice would be appreciated!
  • IPhone newbie. I need advice? I have always had an Android. I dropped it and broke the screen. I was able to upgrade to an iPhone for free. My question is this: is there any app that has free songs on it already? Not looking for an app that takes me to a website. Androids have tons of apps that have tons of songs in their libraries. So far, I can't find an iPhone app that does.

  • I found an iphone a while ago and need advice? I had found an iphone 2 years ago and tried to contact the owner multiple times via the emergency contact list and no one had answered or came looking, if I sell it is it a legal transaction?
