Went swimming with iPhone 4S:/?

My boyfriend got in the pool, and forgot his phone was in his pocket. It's been in rice for about 4 hours and still not working. It will come on, because when you toggle the volume switch, it vibrates. The screen is just black. Should I leave in in rice longer, or go get the screen replaced? I'm lost

Keep in rice for at least 24 hours. If it still doesn't work check your warranty and you'll have to replace.

Yeah it's probably not gonna work… And trying to turn it on when its wet just causes more permanent damage… And you don't replace the screen you will have to buy a new phone.

Take the phone apart as much as you can. Yeah I know that stupid Apple company won't really let you take an iPhone apart. You can keep it in rice longer. Or perhaps the pool's chlorine is interfering with the phone's ability to work. So you can try keeping it in rubbing alchol for about 30 sec and then put in rice

The problem isn't with the screen the damage is in the battery if you want to fix the phone with out having to buy a new one just replace the battery

  • Will my period stop by tomorrow for swimming? Ok. So I got my period last Saturday the 7th. It is now Friday the 13th. My period still has not stopped, it has slowed down a lot though. It is the seventh day and normally mine lasts about 7ish days. I have plans with my friends to go swimming tomorrow and I really don't want to have to use a tampon. Will it most likely be done before I go swimming? If not is there anything I can do besides tampons? By the way it is really light.
  • What should I do after swimming with iphone 5? Today I went swimming and being stupid didn't take my iPhone 5 out of my pocket in my swim shorts. I was swimming for about 10 whole minutes before realizing that I had it in my pocket. What's the best thing I can do? I know a lot of people say to just put it in rice but i'm not sure. I don't think the rice will be able to get all the water from inside the phone. Any advice would help.
  • Went swimming with my iPhone 5c, how do I fix it? Ok so I had my new iphone 5 in my swimsuit and I totally forgot about it. I jumped in the pool and swam for no more than 1 minute until I realized my phone was still with me. I immediatly freaked out, ran home and put it in a container of white rice. The screen was black and it failed to turn on. Its been about 24 hours and its still not turning on. I'm scared, I need to fix it but i don't know what to do. Please Please Help ME any advise would be helpful!
