IPhone 5 got wet :(

I was in the bathroom, just playing Sims Freeplay. I turned around to flush, and being me, I dropped it and stared at my phone for about a split second before I got it out. Now, my phone is off, but only shows the appl like every 5 seconds. HELP? I have already tried the rice, my phone has to be dry. HELP ME!!!!!!!

Chances are it will never fully function. If you bought AppleCare+, a new one is $49. Otherwise it is $229.

  • My iphone got wet how do i get it to work again- it won't turn on.

    Got caught in a rainstorm and my iPhone got wet-- how do I get it to turn on again...it won't turn on?  I've already tried putting it in rice for 2 days and nothing.  Any other suggestions?

    Let it dry for a week or so.
    If you have tried to charge it or turn it on, then the damage is likely done

  • My iPhone got wet in the rain. Everything works fine. But The flash stays on even when no battery. Any help?

    A liquid damaged iPhone 4 can be replaced by Apple for $149.
    By the way... and electrical short can be dangerous, creating a fire or explosion hazard. You can see the short that's affecting the flash... It's the short you may not see that's affecting the battery and/or charging circuitry that's the problem.
    Get it replaced.

  • My iphone got wet and is now stuck on silent

    My iphone got wet in my pocket today and now is permanently stuck on silent.  The sound is still working when I check ringtones in settings so that's not damaged and everything else seems to be working..........   How do I fix this?

    You need to let it dry out first.  Put the phone in a plastic bag with rice and let it soak out the water.  Also make sure your silent switch has not been turned on by accident.

  • My iphone got wet in the rain.  the camera light is now permanently on - any clues

    my iphone got wet in the rain and does not appear to be working - the camera light is permanently on...

    Does the camera work correctly? I have seen this before on iPhone 4, so may not apply to 4S. But if camera does not work, then simple camera replacement could be the next step to fixing this problem of both camera and flash (they are combined part).

    Yes it does, although I wa a minute faster than you. To see if someone is parroting you, or that they just posted at the same time, look at the head of the post and it will show you the data and time of the post and who they were responding to. Looking at that first saves some misinformation in future posting.
    You'll see some posts where there will be 5 posts all in the same minute sometimes. Answer posts late at night and you won't see as many.

  • IPhone got wet how to make it work

  • HT4061 My iphone got wet, shut itself down, and won't restart. What do I do now?

    My iphone got wet, shut itself down, and won't restart. What do I do now?

    Put it in a bag of rice or silica gel. Leave it there for a week. Do NOT attempt to power it on or charge it before the end of the week.
    If it still doesn't work after that, make an appointment at the genius bar and get the phone replaced or buy a new one.

    Thank you. I told it to the apple store in Southampton and they were fab. I was lucky and there was no water damage, the water indicators didn't change colour. It was just bad luck my screen failed at the same time as it got wet!! Screen changed and all is well. Thank you Genuis Tom and West Quay!!

    The phone is damaged. Take it in to an Apple Store or authorized service provider. More than likely you will have to pay for an out of warranty replacement.

  • My Iphone got wet and now when I turn it on it will not go past the apple logo.  Please help.

    Hi,
    My Iphone got wet and now when I turn it on it will not go past the apple logo.  Please help.

    Take it in for service or most likely out of warranty replacement. Water damage voids your warranty so you will need to pay towards the replacement.
    Cheers

    You can try and put it in a bag of uncooked rice for 5 days or so, but don't get your hopes up. If that doesn't work, you get an out of warranty replacement or buy a new phone.

  • My Iphone got wet with nesquick (milk+chocolatte) :( please help!

    my iphone 4s got wet with nesquick. I cleaned the phone, and notised that the sound was not clear anymore; then I tried to turn it off but soon I realized that I can't do that because it turns on immediatly. What should I do? for now I put the phone in rise. hope it will help :/

    Leave it for several days ,if that does not work you can buy
    an out of warranty refurbished unit from Apple Retail Stores
    at $199 if in the US or similar at local currency if elsewhere
    As I suspect you are aware you have invalidated the warranty
    by getting it wet

  • My iphone got wet, can i retrieve my data???

    Yesterday, I was at a pool party with my friends and i brought my iphone 5s that was in a water-proofed bag(its like a ziplock bag but more secure) to the pool (for you know selfies and ****) and i put the bag with my iphone in my pocket then went in to the pool. Of course, I was very unsure with this idea but my friend said it'll be okay so i just left it in my pocket for just about 1 min or 30 sec in the pool because i got worried and checked it. WELL WHAT DID I KNOW, WATER WAS IN THE BAG BUT LITERALLY MY IPHONE GOT WATER DAMAGED BY A SMALL AMOUNT OF WATER IN THE BAG. And yes, i checked if the bag would be secure many times before i went in the water. So after i realized that my phone got water damaged, i immediately wiped it with a towel and blow dried it for 10 min or so but nothing occurred, screen was still black. I was trying to find a bag of rice but of course, it was a pool party, noone has a bag of rice1?!?? So i just put my iphone to sit and didnt touch it until i got home. Then after i got home, I put my iphone in a bag of rice overnight. Today, it still doesnt show any signs of resurrection so im going to take it to apple this week.
    Well, life isn't naive so i just accepted it plus im in apple care so whenever my phone gets damaged, it'll be repaired by apple but one thing i'm worried is about the data because it has been a month since i last backed up my phone.
    Can apple retrieve my data (especially my photos, photos are so important)? What should i do to retrieve it in any way possible???
    Any suggestions or advices are appreciated, thanks. But please dont suggest the rice method because as said above, ive already tried that and it doesnt work.

    so if i put my iphone back in the rice, would it work again???
    There's no guarantee, especially as you turned it on while it was still wet. Put it in the rice for a week and hope. If you can get silica gel that's better than rice.

  • My daughter spilled a drink and her iphone got wet and speaker only works intermitently any suggestions?

    iphone speaker got wet after a drink was spilled and now is not working properly...will it dry out out on its own or is there something I can do to fix it?

    Turn it off, put it in a sealed bag of uncooked rice for 5-7 days. After that period, try and charge and turn on and see if it works. More than likely your best alternative is to purchase an out of warranty replacement. For an iPhone 4 in the US, the charge is $149. Prices should be comparible in other countries depending on where you are at.
