Possible iphone 5s water damage?

Alright so i put my phone (speaker/outlet thing down) into a cupholder today and there was water in the bottom of it and now my phone turns off and won't turn back on any time i hit the sleep/lock button. Does this sound like water damage? If it does, do you know how i can fix it/dry it out? If it doesn't, do you know what might be wrong with it?

E thing to try us putting it in rice, it's dries out the water, but even Then might not work. Also apple does not cover water damage.

I agree with Joe, pull it apart (Remove the battery ect…), put it in white rice. The rice draws out moisture and leave it there for as long as possible. Then, leave it on a counter for a few hours after that, still pulled apart. Then put it all together and pray it works

  • Possible water damage on iPhone 5s? Ok so I went hiking and I didn't have pockets, so I put my phone on my side between my shorts and skin. The hike was difficult so I ended up sweating and I totally forgot my phone was on my side instead of my backpack. As gross and stupid as it may sound, I think my phone has possible water damage from my sweat. However, the screen is still responsive and fine yet the home button does not work when I press it. However the fingerprint scan still works. Will putting it in rice help?
  • Possible to fix side damage on iPhone? I once put my phone on my jacket on the basketball court, then when picked up the jacket my phone flew and landed on the concrete, bouncing several times. When I picked it up the screen was gone and the camera and everything else worked fine. But there was a huge chipped part on the top of my phone, right next to the power button. There was a huge crack on it. Is it possible to fix it at all?
  • Possible iPhone water damage? I knocked a can of Dr Pepper onto my iPhone and it mainly went onto my screen however some of the liquid might have somehow got into my charging hole or earphone jack. It's being about 5 minutes and my phone is fine, however should i take any precautions like putting it in rice just incase? Or because it's fine should I leave it?
  • My iPhone 4 suffered heavy water damage, will it be okay? I went in the pool with it not realizing it was in my pocket. I was in the pool for about 5-10 minutes before I realized it was in my pocket. It was on when I went in the pool but was off when I got out. I now have it sitting in a bowl of rice and I plan on leaving it in there for a week, changing the rice it's in every 24 hours. Does anyone have any insight on this, like if there's any hope of it being okay or is it done for?
