Dropped iPhone 4S in coffee?
Let's all take a moment to laugh at my stupidity… Now that that's over, I do need some input. This morning I somehow managed to drop my iPhone in my HOT coffee. Not sure if temperature has any affect on the damage caused. I immediently took it out and started rubbing it dry on some blankets, and I took the case off. At first the screen looked fine but then it went dim. I held the power button but it wouldn't let me swipe my finger to turn it completely off. I held down the power button for a while and I think that may have turned it off… But I heard it vibrate in the rice I put it in a few times so who knows. The Verizon dude I talked to on the phone said that's fine - it will eventually run out of battery. Anyways, my phone is currently in a vase, fully submerged in rice and i have plastic wrap over the top of it to keep out any excess air. I'm gonna keep it in there until at least Friday morning… Probably Friday afternoon. Any other tips? Can this sort of thing be repaired or does it usually result in buying a whole new phone? I don't have insurance unfortunately. I do have an old enV3 as back-up. I'm not opposed to using that for a while until I save up for a new phone if this one is ruined. Any input or personal experience with this issue would be appreciated!
