IPhone 4s camera light stuck on after being dropped in a puddle?

Ok so me and my friend were at the park and I accidentally droped my phone (iPhone 4s) in a muddy puddle. We took it to bits and completely dried it (not an easy task I might add!). The only problem now is my camera doesn't work and the light is stuck on. I'm going to try doing a hard reset via iTunes tomorrow but I've read that doesn't actually help. Any suggestions?

Try hitting it quite hard with a hammer, that will turn the light off.

R.i.p
I think your phone is a little bit dead. I don't think you have a way to fix it unless you send it somewhere to get it fixed. I really do feel your pain.

  • My iPhone fell in a puddle of water twice, will it ever be the same? There were two instances where my iPhone fell in water, once, in the toilet for a second and then it a puddle of water on a train platform. It has been working, however, I remember when I first purchase it (a few months ago, the speed was incredible.) Is it normal for the speed to alter over time? Will my iPhone ever be the same? Perform on the same standards as it's suppose to?

It does not connect to itunes too, and the sleep/wake botton is broken so I can't force restart it. What should I do?
