IPhone 5 camera not working after being dropped in water?

My iphone 5 went for a little swim yesterday and I dried it off in rice. It seems to be fully functioning properly except the camera isn't working. What should I do?

Added (1). The phone is working at 100%. The only problem is the camera.also, I'm broke as *** and will not be replacing the phone

Take your phone to the repair shop

Your best bet is to take it to an apple store and have them fix/replace it for you. Don't replace it yourself cause you wouldn't want to mess it up. I dropped my iPhone 5 in a toilet while changing and the front camera broke so they replaced it for me.

Get it replaced.

It will continue to get worse over time. The rice trick doesn't save idevices, it only lets them work a lil longer.
sell it for parts and buy a new one.

  • Iphone stuck in recovery mode after being dropped in water? So I dropped my phone in the pool then got it out and it was not turning on I was not able to get the phone open because I did not have the right tools I did put it in rice over night and then I plugged it into the charger and the plug into iTunes button came on so I plugged it into my computer and it said detected a phone in recovery mode and can't connect until it is restored so how do I restore it and remember ii dropped it in water and this is the only picture I get

  • IPhone 5C screen not working after I dropped it? I dropped it on the stairs. The phone itself is functional but the touch screen won't work. The whole "soft reset" thing isn't working, and I don't want to take my chances by doing a hard reset.
  • Iphone 4s dropped in water- speaker not working Dropped my 4S in water for like 4 seconds and put it in a bag of rice overnight. Alarm, calls, and headphones all make sound and work. The speaker, for the ringer and music does not work. I have charged it a bit. Any way to fix this or will it just work one day? Any help is thanked.
