How long should I leave my iPhone in rice?

My younger sister accidently spilled water on my iphone 4. It seemed okay but it kept trying to turn itself off so I put it in rice and its been in there for about 3 days now. How long should I leave it in there to insure that it will be OK?

you can't be sure if it's ok
But three days should do the trick. Good luck

    For proper maintenance of a lithium-based battery, it’s important to keep the electrons in it moving occasionally. Be sure to go through at least one charge cycle per month (charging the battery to 100% and then completely running it down).

  • How long should you leave your iPad 2 on for it's first charge

    how long you your iPad be on for it's first charge

    You don't have to charge it up to 100% on the first or every charge, nor run it down to empty everytime before you re-charge it. This page just recommends going through at least one charge cycle per month :

  • How long should I leave on?

    If I'm downloading files which are going to take days, is it safe to leave my Powerbook G4 on, while on charge? What's the longest this should be left on?
    Many thanks

    It's perfectly safe to leave your Powerbook on indefinitely, provided that it's connected to AC power, and it's given plenty of airspace around and particularly underneath it to enable it to cool itself as needed.
    What sort of download are you embarking on, that's going to take several days? If I were you, I'd certainly look for an alternate way of obtaining the file(s) rather than expect my internet connection to hold up without interruption for that long.

  • How long should I leave my Hp pc on for?

    hi i have an hp p7 1245 and i leave it on for about 12+ hours a day. is it safe to leave it on for 30 hours straight? 

    Hi,
    Actually many computer can run 24/24, non stop.  As long as you keep it cool, you can leave it running 30+ hours. It knows when it goes to sleep anyway.
    Regards.

  • How long should Asset encoding take?

    I am burning a DVD of a one hour soccer game. The asset encoding process sure seems to take forever. I am well over two hours of encoding.

    Hi - I'm trying to burn a 1hr 5min movie to iDVD from iMovie 4 using my G4 PB with 1.33 GHz and 768mb DDR SDRAM - I've got about 32GB free on my hard drive, but the movie is taking forever to finish 'asset encoding'. It's been doing it for about 24 hours now! There is a lot of different music files and transitions used throughout the film, but has this happened to anyone else? I'm not even sure if I should be leaving my Powerbook on for this long. Any help / suggestions would be greatly appreciated and how long should I leave it before I give up!?! (I can still use other programs - the whole thing doesn't seemed to have crashed)
    Thanks, Paul

  • How long should the installation of new software for iphone take.  Mine has been downloading now for over 3 hours.  I don't want to disconnect and lose my data.

    How long should it take to update an I 4 phone to the new system.  Mine has been going for 3.5 hours and is not finished, but I don't want to disconnect and lose my data.

    Mine took about an hour or so but it mostly depends on your modem and processor speeds. You can check the progress by clicking your iphone on the left and then checking the download progress. As long as that is moving I would just leave it and wait but don't let your computer shut down.

  • I dropped my iphone 5 in the toilet about 3 hours ago, I've had it in a bag of rice since. I tried turning it on, but nothing. How long should I wait before i go get a new phone?

    I dropped my iphone 5 in the toilet about 3 hours ago, I've had it in a bag of rice since. I tried turning it on, but nothing. How long should I wait before i go get a new phone?

    If water drained out of your phone when you pulled it out of the toilet it is most likelyh dead.  Stop trying to turn it on or plugging it in.  You really need to put it in a bag of rice for 3-4 days and just leave it alone.  It will take that long to get it totally dry to see if it is going to come back to life.
    Good luck, but since you tried to turn it on, and plugged it in while it was probably still wet inside I would not count on it surviving.

  • HT201274 I backed up my iPhone 4 last night, and started the erase contents and settings 4 hrs. ago. How long should it take to complete the erase? Will it automatically be restored?

    I backed up my iPhone 4 last night on iCloud, and started the erase all content and settings a little over 4 hrs. ago. How long should I expect it to take to complete this process? Will it automatically do a restore on my phone? The reason I had to do this was because my iPhone 4 would not upgrade the latest IOS. Thanks for any information! Karnysue

    Something has gone wrong. That should have happened almost instantly. Force the phone into recovery mode & restore it:
    Leave the USB cable connected to your computer, but NOT your phone, iTunes running, press & hold the home button while connecting the USB cable to your dock connector, continue holding the home button until you see “Connect to iTunes” on the screen. You may now release the home button. iTunes should now display that it has detected your phone in recovery mode, if not quit and reopen iTunes. If you still don't see the recovery message repeat these steps again. iTunes will give you the option to restore from a backup or set up as new.

    How long should it take it to back up icloud to iphone 5c?

    The answer depends on the amount of data to be restored, the speed of your Internet connection, and wireless network conditions. It could take the better part of a day.

  • How long should it take iOS 6.1 to load on my iPhone?

    How long should it take iOS 6.1 to load on my iPhone? It's been 3 hours and it is stuck in the same part of the download.

    I now have the new phone. The order number is still not appearing on My 02.
    It turns out that when I bought the phone, it was assigned a new sim card/telephone number. Now there are two phone numbers on my o2 account - the one I use, the one that came with the new phone.
    The order number is appearing under the new sim card's phone number, not the one I intend to use.
    Hopefully, O2'll be able to update the order and link it to the telephone number I use. It's not a major problem (at all) but I'd rather have it connected to the number I use than a random number that came with the phone.

  • How long should it take for the iOS 5 iPhone software to update?

    How long should it take for the iOS 5 iPhone software to update? Mine is taking a ridiculous amount of time, to the point where I need to stop it as i need to go out and need my phone !

    Depends on how strong your wifi connection is.
    you can try a reset hold down the home/sleep button together until you see the apple logo and then release.
