My iPhone 5 won't turn on and its been acting weird?

I have an iPhone 5 and its screen is lifted up- so I was at the pool and some water splashed on it and it turned off. I tried to turn it on but couldn t so I put it in rice over night to some the water out and then charged it. It turned on the apple sign (when you turn on your phone the white apple sign) and then held the on button down for ages but it just stayed on the apple sign.

The next day I tried again and a black screen with the iTunes icon, a charging icon and http: applesupport.com came up and stayed, I'm so confused and now I tried to charge my phone and turn it on but it isn't doing anything. I don't know if it is dead? The water splashed on it 4 days ago.

My Hauwei Ascend G690 does not load, but I'm not complaining.

Rice does not actually do anything useful if water has got inside a phone.

It needs properly dismantling, cleaning and drying if it is to have any chance of working long-term.

Otherwise, it may appear to start working again after it fully dries (or not) but as long as there's any residue from the water in it, it will be steadily corroding away and die totally after some time.

This is the result of not properly cleaning wet electronics - the "mould" is actually metal salts, what used to be metal circuit traces and parts of components…

It's beyond dead. Water kills iPhones.

  • Why is my iPhone acting weird after updating it? When I'm using 3G and I search for something on google or try to open a link from my Facebook app, I get a message that says "Response Error. Technical description: 502 Bad Gateway - Response Error, a bad response was received from another proxy server or the destination origin server." What the hell does that mean?
  • Why is my iPhone 4 acting weird? I have fast pace game on my iPhone, like temple run for example, it starts skipping and seems like its 2 or 3 seconds off. It's only on games like that. It's been going on for a few days and just randomly started. It's really frustrating me! If anyone can help me that would be great!
  • My iPhone 6 has been acting a bit weird lately? I'll be texting a few people on imessaging or kik, and I'll have to double tap the home button. Sometimes when I double tap, it brings me to what looks like my home screen, but with no apps, just the wallpaper I have set. When I press the home button again, nothing happens. I have to restart my phone. This can happen up to 3,4, or even 5 times a day. What does this mean? Is something wrong with my iPhone? I have the newest updates installed btw.
