HOW to dry WET phone??

Instructions:- Things You'll Need paper towels or refrigerator or TV or vent or car dashboard or plastic container filled with dry rice or cat litter or compressed air in a can or a hairdryer

Step 1
Step One Obviously the first step is to remove the phone from whatever liquid it was immersed in. Next remove the battery as soon as possible. I can’t overstate how important this step is. The phone is an electronic device and electricity and water do not mix. Leaving the battery in will cause short circuits and damage the phone. If your phone has a SIM card remove that too. Wipe off any excess water with a towel paper or otherwise.
Do not heat the battery under any circumstances; they can explode!


Step Two
Try putting the phone in the refrigerator. This may sound strange because most of us associate heat with the drying process. Actually the refrigerator cools things by drawing moisture out of things.
Do not put the phone in the freezer as this can damage the LCD (Liquid crystal display)
After 30 minutes or so, take it out for about 10 minutes, and repeat until the phone is dry.

Step Three
One of the simplest methods is to place the phone on top of a TV, or vent from a cable box or a device which emits a low heat. This can take up to 3 days but it’s better than having to shell out the bucks for a new phone.

Step Four
If your accident happens outdoors miles away from home the simplest way to dry a phone is to place the phone on the dashboard of your car. The car should be parked in a place that gets plenty of sun. After about 2 hours check to see if the screen is fogged. If its still foggy put it back on the dash, if not try putting in the battery and boot up the phone.

Step Five
Another common method used to save a wet cell phone is to place the phone in a container of rice. Remember how Grandma put grains of rice in the salt shaker to keep the salt dry. Rice can absorb an incredible amount of moisture.

Step Six
Other methods along this line involve putting the phone in a sock or pantyhose and placing in a container with silica sand or the new crystal kind of cat litter. On the average these methods take about 3 days to be effective.

Step Seven
Try using a compressed air can like the ones sold at computer stores. Hold the can STRAIGHT ( holding the can sideways, upside down, or at an angle, will discharge a freezing liquid damaging your phone further) Shoot the air into speaker, mic, keypad, and hard to reach crevices.

Step Eight
One of the easiest methods to save a wet cell phone is to use a plain old hair dryer. This method is somewhat controversial. Some sources say that the heat from a hair dryer is too hot. Most hair dryers have a low heat setting and this is the one that should always be used. If the low heat setting on your hair dryer is too hot it is better to use another method.

Step Nine
If your phone was dropped in salt water or water containing an excessive amount of minerals you will have to take some special steps. Salt water will crystallize causing its own set of problems. You may use alcohol or distilled water to flush out contaminants. If you use alcohol it must be at least 95 % denatured alcohol. Rubbing alcohol is only 70 % and not effective.
Be sure to check what the alcohol is denatured with. Do not use anything other than methanol. Any other kind of alcohol can damage your phone. Rinse the phone with alcohol and dry. Alcohol is flammable so this should be done outside or in a well ventilated area.

Step Ten
Another way to remove salts and minerals from a wet cell phone is to use distilled water. While not as effective as alcohol, distilled water will dilute minerals and salts. The idea is to get the salts and minerals off the copper parts in the phone before they corrode.put the battery and test it.
