Hence your mobile took a bath and now what? Well, I've got some real world help for you. Same thing happened to me, and I had an excellent pricey Apple iPhone 4S.
Here's the list of what to do:
1. Do not plug it into a power source!!! (this can completely kill it)
2. If you have an iPhone go to the nearest Apple store and have them take a peak. The genius bar will give it a going over for nothing. They have got a gadget which can look inside and tell if the insides have been saturated. Cost? Free. (usually good) If you do not have an iPhone go to the nearest store where you purchased the telephone and ask them to take a look. If you brought it online, bad news you're probably out of luck for any help and are on your own. But stick with me here I've got some tips.
3. Next get a plastic baggie, like a fridge bag that can be sealed, fill it with rice, any kind, and if you have got any silica packets (those packets that come in electronics boxes) place those within the baggie as well. Put the phone inside and cover with the rice and seal.
4. Place the sealed baggie in a dry warm place, not a radiator or anything hot, just dry and warm. Keep an eye fixed on it as moisture is released it'll compress on the inside the baggie, when you see that change the baggie to a fresh one. Let the phone sit within the baggie for no less than three to 5 days.
5. Take the phone out and let it sit for 24 hours then plug into a charger, NOT A Computer, it can still injure your computer.
6. If it re- boots, you are ready to go. If it tries to re boot good news. It may not be fixed but it is valuable. If nothing occurs you need a new phone. There is however hope for some cash.
7. Cash options; there are buyers out there who will recondition a water damaged cell phones. EBay is one location to test; there you'll find customers who will purchase telephones to recondition. Also Craig's list, you can place an advertisement for free and find a consumer. So the good news is you almost certainly don't have an one hundred percent loss, bad news whatever you get it most likely won't cover the cost of a new phone.
