- Try To Turn On Your Device Immediately
Water and electricity never go hand in hand so when you turn on your phone immediately, you risk short circuiting.
Your phone would most likely be on when you’ve dropped it in water so be sure to remove the battery immediately because your phone would most likely try to restart itself on its own.
While we don’t doubt the drying properties that rice has on your phone, it’s also got a lot of ‘dust’ particles that could potentially lodge itself in the tiny crevices of your phone.
Be sure to dry your phone properly first and use silica gel to dry the insides out because you soak your phone in rice overnight.
The heat from the hair dryer might push water particles even deeper into your phone’s tiny crevices.
Even if your phone seems dry on the surface, it’s a bad idea to try to jump start it with a charge.
