My iphone got wet and won't turn on

Yesterday, my iphone 4 fell into water .... it was completely submerged for about 10 seconds before I could remove it. It worked for about 5 minutes after it happened, but then it shut off and won't turn on. Now it's sitting in a pot of dry rice (people told me to put it in rice because it dries stuff out). Is there anything I can do? will it work again?? Am I doomed??

Your phone is fried. You can get an out of warranty replacement at an Apple Store.

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    My iPod touch was out in the rain and now it won't turn on. Can it be repaired?

    yeah it should be able to get fixed one is an costly way
    and one free which you can do on your on which will on cost you a few pounds
    ok first the colstly way ipod/ifone repair web sites will fix wet ipod/ifones but they can charge anything from £39.99 to £79.99 to fix some with have an free post and pack service with royal mail and some will have u pay for this this will cost u £19.95
    ok the free way you will need two soft dry cloths and some where warm first lay one of the cloths down put the ipod/ifone face up lcd faceing up, now but the 2nd cloth over the top of it and leave it alone for 3-5 days after this try powering up ipod via its power button if it powers up and and buttons work it should be able to charge up
    now its the same with the ifone but you need to take the back off and take out both battery and sim leave the back off and cover leave for the same time 3-5 days

  • Help My ipod got wet and won't turn on

    Recently an accident happened where water was spilled onto my brand new ipod chromatic, I have no idea what to do and let it sit out to dry. Does anyone know if it wil work afterwards or something I can do to help/ fix it?

    Water is bad. At least when it comes to anything that runs on electricity.
    If you tried to turn it on immediately after it getting wet, you are probably in trouble. Everyones first instinct is to turn something on after they drop it in water or get it wet and that is the LAST thing you want to do at that point!
    If you get any device wet, DO NOT TURN IT ON! You need to let is sit and dry out before you try to turn it on.
    As for your specific case. Try letting it dry out completely, then try turning it on. Put it somewhere dry and warm for a day or two.
    If it still does not work, you may be out of luck.

  • Driod incredible 2 got wet and won't turn on...will I lose pictures?

    Will I lose all of my pictures on my phone or will they be able to help at the store?

    Hopefully you pulled the sd card out right away.  The pictures should all be there.  My daughter dropped her DINC2 in the water and we quickly pulled out the card, powered down, took out the battery, dried the parts and then placed all the parts in a container with uncooked rice and let it dry out for 48 hours.  Her phone works fine and she didn't lose any pictures either.

  • 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

    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.
    BTW, I clicked the Like button on your post where you gave the link for the users manual.

    sometimes if the battery drains completely you will need to leave it plugged into a charger for 10-15 minutes before you get any activity at all.  this is normal

    my iphone got wet and after letting it dry all i get is the black screen with the grey apple and a bunch of white writting, what do I do to fix it?

    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.

  • HT4623 how to fix a iphone 4 that got wet and won't swipe to get in

    I need help my iphone got wet. it still works but i can't swipe to get in. I can still recieve messages and stuff. I put it in rice for 2 days but i still have this problem. How should i fix this??

    The damage has probably already been done since you powered it on after getting wet but... turn it off and put it in a bag of rice for 5-7 days.  It might work after that.

  • 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.

  • IPhone went dead and won't turn back on

    My iPhone 5 was a refurbished phone that I received under warranty in November. However, it worked fine until last week when it started turning off at 50% and below (which is the same reason why I had to get this refurbished phone in the first place). But because it immediately turned back on, I thought nothing of it and ignored it. However, my phone went dead two days ago and won't turn back on. I've used two chargers that worked the day of, but it wouldn't charge with either of those and those wouldn't even connect my phone to my laptop. So, thinking and hoping it was both of the cords malfunctioning, I went out and bought another cord. My phone still won't turn on, Apple Support refuses to help in any way because my warranty out, and I'm lost.

    Plug it in to a wall outlet so it has power, then do a reboot by holding both the power and home buttons until the apple logo appears, ignore the red slider if that appears.

  • 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.
