help. i dried my iphone with rice and the handset works perfectly but i cannot make calls or use the 3g aspect. i can use the internet when connected to my internet at home. i know the sim card isnt damaged as it works in someone elses phone, i tried theres in mine (same network) and all it displays is searching. does anyone know how to get this bit of the iphone working?

I just found the easiest fix for a water damaged iPhone. Put your phone
in a thin sock and hang it over the door of your clothes dryer. Set
the dryer on low heat and run it with nothing else in the dryer (to
prevent static damage). The sock draped over the dryer door keeps the
phone from tumbling in the dryer, and the dryer will eventually pull out
the moisture. My daughter dropped her phone in a bathtub and, after a
half day in the dryer, it works fine again

i heard somewhere.. to put it in rice. so it will absorb the water. i put mine in the washing machine..and i took the battery out and now have both in a rice baggy. i’m going to wait three days maybe.. two cause it’s killing me! to see if it worked.. many people said it has worked. i got it from many different websites.. not just one! gahhh this sucks. thanks for the tips though

One thing you forgot about the iphone 4 is that there are two more stickers (“watersensors”) under the back cover. Those also has to be replaced, otherwise the apple service center will notice and it will not be warranty-friendly. If you have a friend with a iphone 4 you can use his/hers while handing it in and then switch back again after it has been fixed.

it sure is possibly to remove the battery, open the back on your iphone 4 and the remove the screw holding the battery contact. then you can remove it easily

I like the bleach tip, but I didn’t know that you could just rip out an iPhone 4 battery and put it back in, Android how ever, yes. And my story: got tackled into a pool with my phone in my pocket.
