Bowl of Rice + iPhone

wow. For sure, you will definitely look for possible ways of reviving such a very expensive phone.

sure did,, here in mexico people have done that for a long time. My brother did it once for a friend, it saved a 500.00 phone...

I have heard of this one before but have not yet tried it nor would want to (ever!) hehehehee.. I sure wouldn't wish my phone would suffer such a fate! Anyhow, I have tried using uncooked rice though. It's great for maintaining the dryness of your table salts. We usually put some uncooked rice in our salt shakers so that the salt will not accumulate moist and thus stick in the bottom of the shaker. We also put our dried fish (uncooked) inside our uncooked rice container. Perhaps it could work with devices too. But I guess if something did happen, I'd let it stay there for over a week to be safe. Have a great mylot experience ahead!

This works for most electronics which is nice, but does not always work, you can also try using a blow dryer set to cool to dry your items out.

Yes, it does work I have done this for several of my Blackberry. Also, my Mom has done this with her phone and it worked.

Yes it did,and actually I get this message from one of the TV show,so I can confirm that it is right.

Thanks for sharing this, i h ave not yet got my phone wet, but this worth to try in case it happens. There is nothing wrong in try new things especially it will help you save some money in case one gadget breaks down. The rice thing, so its only for iphone? How about the gadgets though, other phone, or ipad perhaps, i wonder if it will work.

I have never got my smartphone wet, but my grandson did once, and my daughter put it in rice, and it did work afterwards. Since you can't remove the battery in an iphone, I am not sure how it dries out, but with any other phone, where you can remove the battery, it does dry out in a couple of days. you need to leave the phone off though, while it is drying out. I am not sure why, but that is what I have heard. I hope mine never gets wet, where I have to put it in rice. Take care, and have a great day.

kind of makes sense to me why it works, rice being highly absorbent of moisture so will suck up the moisture droplets in the iphone..but of course i think evryone knows about the other thingy which is to make sure not to switch on the phone when it has gotten wet but remove the batteries and wait some time and of course put it in a rice bowl with grains to absorb the moisture. quicker.

its kind of good because the cost too is quite small and the amount of rice and iphone is cool and i would like to fix it

I didn't realise that rice was as good a drying agent as that - I thought one would have to buy silica gel or alumina. It would probably work for other devices, too. The one that comes to my mind is the wristwatch that has these annoying globules of water on the inside of the glass.

How much rice do you have to use? And does it matter if it is long grain or basmati? I have heard you can cook rice with your cell phone. Again I don't know how much rice and for how long, but it's worth a shot if your hungry.

That is so amazing.Is it only for iphone or every cell phone?That is really a wonderful method to dry the wet phone.I'll keep it in mind in case my phone drops into the water.But I would never let this things happen to me.

I attest to that! that's for real, any kind of smartphones got wet can dip to rice grains, it's effective you just have to separate each part and turn off the phone. I did experience several times dropping my phone from the water. money saver
