Water damaged iPhone- is there any hope?
I dropped my iPhone in a fish bowl while cleaning it out (Don't even ask) and it submerged but I got it out as quickly as possible. For some reason, I didn't think about how bad water damage can be and I checked the speakers, camera, and the charge and it all worked so I didn't think anything of it. 10 minutes later I was using it and the screen started flickering to the point where I couldn't even do anything. I put it in a bag of rice and am prepared to wait however long.
Is there any hope for it to work or should I just replace it?
Something inside will need repair/replacement. It might be cheaper to take it to a pro and get it fixed but then again, it might be better to get a new one.
- Water damaged IPhone 4s. Is there hope? Today I idiotically fell into a pool with my iPhone in my pocket. It was submerged for about three seconds and afterward there was no display but it would still vibrate at messages and calls. I shook the water out of it immediately but I couldn't get it in rice for about 20 mins. I took out thr sim card and managed to turn off my phone and I'll let it sit in the rice for 24-48 hours. Is this just a lost cause or is there actually hope in me reviving my "child"
- My iphone speaker will not work after i water damaged it, is there any fix? I accidently spilled orange juice on my iphone and i thought it was fine as it operated after i wiped it off. I noticed later that i could not hear the other person during a phone call. Are there any fixes to this or do i have to buy another phone out right?
- My iPhone SE went for a swim with me - Any hope? So right now I'm in Outer Banks (beautiful area, my family rented a house with a pool and a short walk to the beach) and I went for a 5ish minute swim in the pool. Then my mom called me in to have lunch, and that s when I realized I f ed up. My family is big, so I had a bunch of suggestions being thrown at me at once, a bunch of them being the bag or rice. We don't have rice at the house, and nobody s gone food shopping yet. Is my phone a lost cause? Any advice would be a great help.
