You want to move the water out of the phone, not lock it in place. You can try evaporating the water with a blow dryer. Afterwards, to be sure you get all the moisture, I'd suggest placing the phone in a sealed container with some silica gel.

One summer season, i replaced into having a amazing time at my cabin. at the same time as somewhat intoxicated, I wandered onto the pool deck, protecting my almost sparkling Blackjack on my shoulder. As I went to take a seat, the phone fell off my shoulder and into the pool. I at contemporary dove in and retrieved the phone. at contemporary after, I placed the phone below a small fan and left it there for 3 days. I then placed it in my (black) vehicle parked contained in the daylight and "baked" it for an afternoon. the phone worked completely with none complications after that! yet another selection that I actual have heard of yet under no circumstances tried is putting the phone in dry rice. Supposedly the rice will take up the moisture from the phone. solid success!

Well, that an interesting concept, but I doubt it. Sooner or later it's going to thaw out and still be wet. My son didn't remove his cell phone from his pocket before putting his pants in the wash and that was the demise of the phone.

No dont do that just take out the battery and let the phone and ur battery dry, out in the sun for a while about 30 minutes or so then turn it on it usually always workes for me. Ive dropped mine twice and it worked both times!

The bad news started the second the phone hit the water. You've most likely shorted some important circuitry. The damage is already done, so you should start looking for a new phone.

No need to freeze it. Mine went through the washer. Just power it off, take out the battery and let it air dry over night. Mine's good as new now.

Freezing it won't help - it'll just turn the water into ice, which might just makes things worse. Take out the battery and let it air dry - using a hair dryer might help too.

No you should put it in the oven at a low heat to dry it out. Putting it in the freezer will distroy it. If you put it in the oven set it as low as possible.

Hmmm, I don't think phones are supposed to be exposed to any extreme temperature, but you may as well try it if it 's already soaking wet.

No. As water approaches its freezing point, it becomes most dense at about 4 degrees C. That should just about crack everything in your phone.
