IPhone 5s fell in toilet, now screen is blurry?
Added (1). I accidentally dropped my iPhone 5s in the toilet several days ago. It turned on perfectly fine after sitting in rice for 2 days.
Now, 2 days later, the screen is a bit blurry. I"m wondering if this could be an issue with the LCD screen itself and if I could replace that (not the digitizer, the actual screen) and be okay? Every once in a while the screen goes not fuzzy for a second, which leads me to believe its a display problem only. Looking for some advice on what I should do. Thanks!
Added (2). I'd rather replace the LCD myself if possible before I take it to the Apple store, where I'm guessing they will
1) open the phone
2) see the water damage indicator
3) tell me its water damaged
4) tell me I must pay an extremely high blanket fee to cover repair
First bit of advice: get it repaired at an authorized dealer. It won't magically fix itself.
Second bit of advice: to prevent this from happening again, don't hold the phone over the toilet. It's an easy thing to avoid doing.
You should put the phone in rice again but this time brown rice. See what happens if it doesn't work go get help on where you bought the phone.
Only someone that looks at it would know. I would take it to an apple store.
Probably some water got between the screen and the digitizer. PUT IT IN RICE
- What should I do to make sure my iPhone 4s still works after it fell in the toilet? My iPhone fell in the toilet yesterday and I put it in a bowl of rice for 24 hours. I took it out and charged it and it worked. I want to make sure that it won't glitch and die, so should I keep it in a bowl of rice while charging it for a day? I also noticed that when I was charging it at first, it started heating up… Should I be concerned?
- My iphone fell into the toilet? I took it out right away and put it in rice, overnight, at first it said "overheated" now it works perfectly except that the home button is broken and the screen has dark spots on it, should i leave it in rice a little longer?
- My iPhone fell into the toileT After this, my mother put it onto a radiator and it went really hot. I then put it into some uncooked rice. I'm afraid that the heat may have damaged it as it was working after it had been in the water but it won't now. It just won't turn on. It is now in the rice, will it ever work again?
- My iphone fell in the toilet? So i dropped my phone in the toilet it was completely submerged but i got it right out. It won't stay turned off but besides that everything is working fine. Will it be okay? I'm going on a trip for a week and i'm scared it will die while in on vacation.
