How to repair when iPhone get soaked in water?

Dear,

There is no specific repairing trick, but you may use the following things.  May be your mobile will work fine.

• First of all do not try to start up your mobile, otherwise there is no chance of cure. 
• Open your mobile backside, put the battery alone, and open the case of the mobile and put it up in the sunlight or somewhere that it can be dry.  Another best option, is to use a hair dryer which will work much more perfectly and a quick way for drying the soaked mobile.
• Purchase a new battery, for your set and then use that new battery and do not use the old battery.

Hope in this way you will be able to succeed in opening the mobile, although this is not a case where it would surely work but

90% chances are that it would work.

John

Hello,

As wise people say that there is no remedy for all

Turn off the device (if it is not off) and completely covers the iPhone in a bowl full of rice. Rice is a natural desiccant and thus help to absorb excess moisture fully.

Now leaves dry out for about 48 hours and in any case do not charge the device. If your appliance has a removable battery, dry separately by covering it completely to accelerate the whole drying process. This home remedy is cheap and worth a try before rushing to the Apple Store for a replacement.
