Here's a tip which I came across and which I share with you without much conviction as I have not tested it personally, but if I have to drop my precious iPhone in the water, I will not hesitate to try this experiment to save him from drowning.
Here is the tutorial for last chance to save your iPhone:
- Take your iPhone of water as quickly as possible.
- Turn off your iPhone if it is on.
- Wipe the water with a soft cloth
- Remove the SIM card
- Prepare a ZipLoc bag filled with uncooked rice
- Bury your phone in the bag so that it is completely covered with rice.
- Wait 48 to 72 hours
