Is it possible to fix water damaged iPhones? Contrary to what many people believe, repair can succeed, even if the device has been totally submerged in water. If you take the correct steps immediately, there is a high chance that your iPhone can be brought back to life again.

What To Do to Fix Your Water Damaged iPhone

• Make sure that the device is off and do not switch it on again
• Open the case and take out the SIM card
• Without going to extremes, shake out any excess water and dry it with a clean, dry cloth
• If you do not have silica, put some rice into a bag, and place the device into the rice immediately after you have dried it off
• Search online for companies that do repairs on water-damaged iPhones, and contact them as soon as possible.

Don’t imagine that by putting your iPhone in a bag of rice, it will get perfectly dry and work as normal again, because it probably won’t.

Effects of Water Inside an iPhone

Even if there is just one drop of water left inside your iPhone, corrosion can set in very quickly. Eventually this can damage your device beyond repair. The repair company that you send your iPhone to should have the expertise to remove any liquid or oil damage from your device. It is possible to get it working as good as new again.

If this proper process is not carried out on your iPhone, it will probably work for a while. However the features will start dying out one at a time as corrosion takes over.

How to Fix Water Damaged iPhones
