Either out it in the airing cupboard for one week or liuke said above, put it in a bag and fill it with rice because rice is super at absorbing water and will get into the cracks, try the airing cupboard first and then the rice if that hasnt worked. Good Luck!! Xx

I once dropped me cell in a toilet and I took the battery out and blew dry the phone and then I just sat it down on the tv for a couple of days and it started working again but leave the battery out of it while it is drying out

I tried taking my battery out and blow-drying it! It helped, really. But, you have to dry it for a while. Might not be totally broken. Good luck!

This has happened to me in the past. Give it a few days to dry out, and it still might work. It takes several days to dry it completely out. Do not try to use it until you have given it sufficient time  to  dry  out.

There is many ways to fix your phone.One way could be take the back of your phone off and take out the battery and the sim card. Set them somewhere where you won't lose it. Then put your phone on top of a washcloth with the screen going straight up. Then you can put a light over it and just let it sit. That should dry out your phone.Or, this sounds a little crazy but trust me it works. Take of the battery from your phone and put your phone in the oven.Make sure it is sitting on something like a cookie sheet.

You can try and dry it but I'm sorry to say it's not very possible for it to work now. Cellphones have sensitive software that is easily damaged when it comes in contact with water, so that even if the parts seem ok, you can't do much to revive it if the software has been washed away.

I dryed my phone with a hair dryer. We then put it in the frezzer for no longer than 3 mins (the screen will freeze if put in longer.) then we placeed it on a face cloth and put it under a light. Even though we dropped the phone in the water for a little the screen works but the buttons don't that might just be because its a crappy phone.. WHO KNOWS...
