So you have accidentally dropped your expensive, cool iPhone in water and now you are wondering if it would ever work like before again? Well, you don’t need to worry because there is a fix for that.

Normally if you drop any electronic item in water including iPhone, then most probably its life is over, but according to a Youtube video there is a way which can help you to recover your iPhone that was soaked in water to its original state.

I found this help on a website called ifixyouri and this is how its supposed to be done according to them:

It is imperative to remove the iPhone out of the water ASAP. Once the iPhone is out of the water, you want to make sure it is powered off.

If you get a white pinwheel on the screen and it won’t turn of, you hold down the power button and home button until it turns off. In the video we failed to record it powering back on after we powered it off. We simply repeated the ‘power off process’ and moved on to the next important step; remove the SIM card.

Once the SIM card is removed you want to put the iPhone in an uncooked bag of rice. Tighten the bag so all extra air is gone and seal it.

Wait 48 to 76 hours after the water exposure and then try it out. If you find at that time it is not functioning properly as a result of the iPhone water damage put back in the rice and mail to us.

They have also posted a video tutorial on how to do it. You can check it out in the video below:
