Did you power it off before putting it in the rice? And you should have left it for longer; like 24 hours.

Sadly, I think there's no remedy to water damage for iPhones.
Accept my empathy.

Yes my iPad is presently damaged tried doing the rice trick....like I did for the Nokia I used few years back, didn't work. I took this iPad to a reputable Apple shop and I was told to put in my device for recycling, that I will still be doing good to the environment by disposing properly. Well, I carried my iPad and put it in my cupboard, make e dey there like museum for now.
Most painful part was I didn't use it up to 6 months sef. Lol

I think the rice thing works well for devices you can open up. Like dismember the battery, sim, memory card and all. the whole idea behind it is that the rice acts like an absorber of moisture. In apple devices and phones you cannot easily open, it's harder for this process to take place as the rice doesn't get to the insides

My brother please forget it. God will provide another for you.

8 hours before putting it in the rice? That might be the problem. You should have put it in immediately. Why not check it for a while and if its still not coming on then you might have to take it to a repairer

I seriously doubt it can be repaired, however, if it is repaired the person can take a look at mine also.

Putting it in rice has always worked for my BB Passport. If it doesn't work for you, take it to an engineer

Sorry

Leave it inside the rice for 2 days and come back to testify.

Inside rice already.

@All,
Should incase this happens to anyone again.
When a phone falls inside water, you are not advised to connect to charging at all..
If the depth of water is much disassemble it as possible as you can just to dry up, then take to phone repairer (Engineer).
They can clean it up, dry up and possibly get it working.
But trust me, you killed the phone the moment you plugged it to charge.
But you can still give it a shot. Take it to the phone repairer and explain all process you have gone through.
Good luck.
