  1. Take it apart.  Put your hair dryer on low and use it on each section.  IF phone was saturated you may be in trouble.  HOweve,r you have a chance so try it.


  2. Take the battery out and DO NOT DO NOT DO NOT put it back in and try to turn it on for AT LEAST 2 days. Set it out under a lamp..it does not need to be RIGHT under it just under it about a foot under it....leave it for a few days. then try it...if it works great..if it doesn't then its prolly fried!!!

  3. take the battery out as soon as possible

  4. Boo to those other answers.

    1. take phone apart

    2. get some plastic sandwich bags

    3. get some bread.

    4. put the batter in between two pieces of bread, then do the same with the phone, be sure to suck all the air out

    Its like putting newspaper in wet shoes, the bread will absorb the water out of the phone and keep it working.

  5. My friend put hers in a warm oven overnight... Warm.. like 100 degrees, not hot.

    Hair dryer.

    Put it in a container of dry rice for a week

    Leave it outside on a hot day with the battery out

    Good Luck!

  6. use a blow dryer.  Take out the batter and the sim card and just use a blow dryer.  It worked for me twice

  7. I did this 2 weeks ago and my phone works PERFECTLY (also dropped in the pool)  

    I immediately took the battery out

    Then I sat it out in the sun for a few hours (till it got dark)

    Then I got some white rice put it in a tupperware and buried my phone in it, then put on lid..

    Waited 2 days (make sure you don't see any moisture on the inside)

    And worked perfectly

  8. open it up and put it under a desk lamp. The heat from the lightbulb will evaporate the water. That's how i saved my cell phone after I dropped it in the toilet.

  9. I've heard two different ways to handle this.

    Youc an take it apart, as much as youc an without actually breaking the phone and place it in the oven for 4 hours.  The oven should be around 120 degrees.

    i also heard that if you take it apart as much as you can and put it in a bowl of rice, that the rice will soak it all up.
