moneybag100: Sadly, I think there's no remedy to water damage for iPhones. Accept my empathy. |
Re: My Iphone 6 Fell Into Water.... by moneybag100: 12:58am On Jan 25, 2016 |
Brunel:did you have same experience before? thought people say rice could be remedy. |

moneybag100: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 |

Brunel:chai, nawa o...please how long, did it stay in water before you got it out? |

moneybag100:My brother please forget it. God will provide another for you. mine didn't stay upto a minute and it was in a pouch......it fell off my bag into a pool of water on the street. #BlameJonathan.......lol take heart. I feel your pain. |

moneybag100: 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 |

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

@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. |
