before i could do this. Does android will work for it? Cause it got wet is not like usual wet all over it. It got screen wet inside and does it work for Android mobile@@JMGENTERPRISES
I dropped my mobile in water but immediately picked it up after 2 or 3 sec. Luckily, it was working but volume button was messing up. I removed cover and screen protector and placed in rice for 12 hours. It was working perfectly even speaker and mic. Just want to tell you guys do not loose hope!
Thank you!!! This rescued my phone! I had important info on it so I waited extra long, left it in the rice over a week bc it was more humid than usual & just to be careful. The phone recovered! It completely dried out, nothing fried, & it's been working since!
Hello, I have a Galaxy Note 20. I put it in the water to take a picture. Unfortunately, the phone turned off and no longer works. Should I leave it in rice for an hour or a day
Yesterday I hiked in the rain and did not realize my phone got wet and last night I tinkered with it when it was not charging, then froze, etc. and this morning I realized it may be from getting wet.... found you here and I am trying the rice method. Thank you so much for your video and your replies to people here.
It works!!! I dropped my phone into a water-filled basin, and it was still functioning initially. However, the short circuit did occurred which meant the screen of my phone turn green and black instead of my original wall paper. Then, I faster switched it off, and put it into the uncooked-rice container for 24 hours. I did used air-dryer(only air mode/little hot mode) to dry the phone twice in the middle when I took it out and dry for 20 minutes. Luckily it works!!! My phone still functioning well until today.
My phone fall into the bathroom and I put it In the rice lets hope the phone is steal alive i have so many important things on my phone if it's not gonna servive I'm gonna cry my life I'm not joking I literally crying about it right now I hope it will servive please god save my phone ...
This method really does work. I did this with a phone back in the 90s and it worked. I also used it recently on the Motorola Razr. It takes longer with the new phones because they are so tightly sealed. Be patient, it may take more than 24 hours. It may take a few days or a week. I just slide the phone down inside the bag of rice and tape it back up. Good Luck!
I dropped mine & it was still powered on but got the error message when I tried to charge it. I did the rice method exactly as you said & 24 hours later its works. THANK YOU for sharing!!
Thank you so much I thought I lost my phone forever I’m so grateful and will never be this irresponsible with my phone ever again thank you I could never be anymore thankful
I never in my life thought I would be here watching this video, I left my phone accidently in the freezer- don't ask why it should have never happened. I am going to try this method. If this works, I will give an update and sing praises so high because I also have the same model as you.
@@JMGENTERPRISES sorry forgot to update! So what I had done since I didn't have rice was put the corner piece of a towel in the charging part (just in case) and wrapped it around my phone, then put it somewhere away from cool air/AC to remove the cold temperature my phone had been exposed to for a few hours. I let a 8-9 hours pass to be safe for excess water from the freezer that may have turned into vapor or frozen particles on my get sucked up and removed by the towel. I hit the power button on my phone after that and miraculously, it turned back on like nothing happened. As of 2 months passing from when this happen (I am writing this comment via my phone right now), my phone still works perfectly fine. No signs of life loss, short-circuiting, slowly, component damage, anything that would accelerate the need for me to get a new phone! Although I didn't do your method exactly, it still gave me an idea to try out and hope that my phone just got stalled and needed time to recover safely before powering back on. Thank you for the video- I appreciate it, it was helpful and gave me hope that my phone can still work. For anyone reading this, don't give up or lose hope, you have to try! TLDR: thawed out my phone with a towel for 8-9 hours, turned it on and still works normal!
In a huge germophobe so before phones had decent water resistance I used rice a lot and it worked every single time. Haven't had the neeed for it because of water resistance in newer phones, but a few weeks back I dropped my expensive Sony so it's a hole in the back=water eventually got in and my microphone didn't work. Did the rice trick and it works again. I've done this trick probably 20 times with different phones, it always works. I don't care when others say that it's bs. I've seen it work so many times.
Yesterday, I used my Google Pixel 7 Pro in the swimming pool for about 10 minutes. Suddenly, a warning appeared on the screen, and I realized that the SIM slot was not in the phone at all, allowing a lot of water to enter. I immediately turned it off. I left the phone as it was, but there is still water inside. After watching your video, which had many positive comments, I decided to follow your advice and placed my phone in a box as you suggested. I hope it gets fixed. I will keep it in the box for 60 hours and see what happens afterward.
@@JMGENTERPRISES Thank you so much for asking. The method you suggested worked, and my phone dried out. However, water got into the telephoto lens of the camera, which damaged it. I had to open the phone to change the camera, but Unfortunately, while the repairman was fixing it, the screen got Dead:/
Thank you so much for this Video! I accidentally drop my phone in Water, haven’t able to turn off immediately and my phone turns black with some green lines. I left my phone inside rice for about 1 week. Lost my hope and tried charging for few times. But it was not working. I eventually bought new phone because i thought it’s really dead. i charged my damaged iphone after 4 weeks out of curiosity and voala! It works!! And im typing this comment to proof. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Don’t loose hope!
I dropped mine in the shower. i still hear it function but the screen is completely black now. I cant turn it off. Im now putting it in rice for 24 hours. I hope it works.. I hope it still being on doesnt make it worst.
I have always been sceptical of this method and have never got any of my phones wet. However, I recently got soaked at work (part and parcel of working in Dewatering) and my phone got wet too. Initially it was still working and then died. So when I got back home (2 days later) I thought I would try this...I just checked and it actually looks like it worked. It showed signs of life after an overnight stint with rice. I have put it back in the rice so it gets the full 24hrs treatment and hopefully it will charge up tonight. I googled for a vid to see if I had done it right, and found this one. Cheers for sharing😁👍
It worked for me. I dropped my phone in bathtub. First, I quickly turned it off, dried it with hair dryer and then kept it in rice container for 2 days. It is working fine now. Thanks
I'm scared, I don't know what to do. I accidentally dropped my phone in the water and It still works perfectly fine. The only problem I'm having is the speaker. It doesn't sound as clear as last time, I can still hear the sound, but the volume's low. Is putting this in rice a good idea? I'm also scared to charge my phone because I think there's still water in it.
The comments are really helping me calm down.. I just dropped my phone in the pool like 30mins ago and I hope the rice helps… it didn’t say anything about water damage but I just put it in rice anyways just to be safe … Thank you so much for the video ✨
Fingers crossed this method works well for you too! Let me know how it goes! Try and leave it in the rice for at least 24-36 hours. I know it's tempting to remove and test it but you really do not want to operate your phone if there is moisture inside.
@@loading_michael8639 Hi Michael it did work 🤩.. Thank you so much am actually using the phone right now… I was convinced my phone was gone but I took it out of the rice in the morning and put it on the charger and it switched on… I haven’t had any problems thus far…. Thank you again ☺️ 💐✨
@@chantallem5049 haha same Yestwrday I accidentally dropped my phone into the sink that was filled with water and dishes I immediately took the phone out of it and the sound didn't work properly so I went to UA-cam and searched for that one sound that gets the water our of your phone I succeed it was all good until Today Morning I woke up and my phone stopped working and it wasn't even able to charge so I took my tablet and watched this video and happily it's working again he really saved my life
@@loading_michael8639 oh Michael am so glad it worked for you too… The stress of not having one’s phone is a lot lol… I am also very grateful for this video I thought at some point I was going to pass out cos like a fool I haven’t insured my phone so had it not worked completely I would have been dead too 🤣🤣… But am glad it’s working now - this video is the best honestly …
@@mrmiracle9956 we left it in there for 13 hours then tried it on to see if it would turn on and it did but I kept reading that it’s best to leave it in there for a minimum of 24 hours so we put it back and left it in there until it was in there for 24 hours it came out as working perfectly still today it doesn’t glitch or anything like that.
Generally this isn't good advice, sure it dried out, but water isn't clean! It has minerals and containment's in it that get left behind. These need removing before you power on your phone again, you need to see where any corrosion is happening and remove it, and maybe re-solder or replace parts that the water has corroded through. You need to look for any shorts in your rails before you cycle power through it or you will blow more caps! Basically DO NOT STICK IT IN RICE OR TRY POWER CYCLE/CHARGE IT, if its still on when it gets wet, turn it off, and get it to a repair shop and hope they can save it. Basically keep your phone away from sources of water! (FYI your battery or screen will probably need replacing, batteries and backlights are not friends with water!)
Thank you for saving my phone. I dropped my phone in a bucket full of water for about 2 seconds, then I put it in rice overnight, and it's working now.
@@JMGENTERPRISEShi, my baby dropped my phone in the bucket full of water and cleaning detergent I took it to a guy who fixes phone he opened everything dry it out but there is still water mark i asked him he said its on the screen & should change the whole screen and asked for so much money will this work if the water is only on the screen?
@JMG ENTERPRISES my girlfriend and I are looking at this video and noticed you're still responding to comments. You're a good content creator and we wish you continued success.
Rice won't help dry the phone out, and possibly even makes oxidization of solder joints worse. Even using a sock or something, the powder gets inside the phone and holds moisture close to the board longer. You want to displace the water with 90+% alcohol or at least vacuum it out and put it in front of a fan. But the rice is at best a placebo and at worst damaging to the device.
I am from India, yesterday by mistake i fell my Redmi Note7 into bucket full of water for about 19 seconds and immediately I switched the phone off. And Currently I am using the same brand Indian rice for dry my cellphone. I hope this method work for me as well. By the way, A very big thanks to you mate for helping others. Love from India.,🌻✨
thanks for sharing man! I dropped my phone into a bucket of water and it won't turn on, so I thought I'll just wait for the phone to dry out itself for 2days and it still won't turn on now I want to use this method but before I spend my money to buy rice, I wanna ask if it's too late to do that? since I already let the phone wet for a long time, and I don't know much about tech, but maybe the moister inside got absorbed by some of the phone components so the rice probably does nothing, I just want to confirm if this method will still work after I let my phone wet for 2 days
Yeah, I would put in the rice even though it's been a couple days. Just make sure not to attempt to use the phone while water is still inside. That is when damage can occur.
Hello, I have an iPod touch that I have been using for 7 years. I got it for Christmas in 2016 and I used it all the time until a few days ago, it ended up in the washing machine and it wasn't working. My mom tried putting it in a bag of rice, but after 7 or 8 hours I tried to plug it in to see if it was working, and it wasn't turning on. I then did some research and discovered that you have to put it in for at least 48 hours. So I asked my mom to put the iPod back in the rice for 48 more hours. I just tried charging it again an hour ago, and it still wasn't turning on. I also tried plugging it into my computer and it still didn't work. I don't know I'll get to use it again. I really hope I can still use it because I had a lot of important things on there, such as my photos, videos, even my old Flipaclip animations I made in 2017-2020. If I can't use it anymore, I'm literally going to cry. *PLEASE HELP ME* 😭😭😭
Well after putting my boyfriend's cheap ass phone in rice at about 7pm yesterday. I took it out at 10am and plugged it in. I'll be dammed, the thing is working normally. I'm super surprised. I thought it was done for. ❤ the help is appreciated!
So here we are September 24th 2023, and my bf dropped his phone in the toilet 😮 I put it in a giant tin container full of white rice when he got home from work. Second phone he's dropped in a toilet in under 30 days... Praying 🙏 this actually works because we can't afford a 3rd one.🤪🤭 Thanks for the lesson. I can't believe u replied to all of the comments.👼 ❤❤❤
I try and stay current with replying 😊 Fingers crossed it works for you! Try and leave the phone in as long as possible. You really want to make sure any moisture is gone before you power it up!
Hello. Not sure if you'll see this comment but I was doing house chores today and made the mistake of washing the dishes with my phone perhaps too nearby. It has struggled to turn on, but more over, it has gotten these glitched lines on it and seems to be constantly ghost swiping to the right. I've just put it in rice now a few hours after the incident. Do you think with all of these symptoms in mind, your method might fix this issue
Sorry to hear about that. I would for sure leave your phone in the rice for at least 24 hours. Longer the better to make sure all the moisture gets out. Best of luck. Let me know how it plays out 🙂
I dropped my s10 in the pool and earlier when I checked LDI indicator was normal but when I got home it was completely red. I switched off the phone around a hour later and I left it to dry for four days now but still I can see vapour from the front cam. I'm scared to put it to charge or turn on!
I would probably bring it in to a Cell phone repair place and see what they think. A lot of times those places will open your phone up free of charge to access the damage if any.
great idea. just dropped my phone in the tub this morning. turned it off and put it in a bag of rice. about 12 hours in, I saw this suggestion. I'll leave it an extra day to be sure. thanks for the suggestion.
@@gingergreen9507 yes it worked for me, right after you get water on it you should turn the phone off immediately, and place it in rice or Otherwise it may not work. :)
@@foodlol7283 not to keep bothering you but how long did you keep it in rice ? i took mines out after a day and it started to bootloop and didn’t turn on i’m getting a new one saturday but i need it to transfer so i put it back in rice
@@gingergreen9507 i kept mine in the rice for 4 days, you should make sure that the case is off before you leave it any longer so all of the moisture can escape. hope this helps, and good luck with the transfer! :D
I literally slept on my phone. I was so tired I never realised and now there is a sweat mark in it 😆 I put it in rice and then done research to make sure it will work
It shouldn't. A little rain shouldn't hurt either. Unless it's an old phone, most new phones are water resistant. I would still do the rice method for 24 hours if I were you. Best of luck!
I hope this works,my son dropped his dad's phone in the bathtub and didn't tell anyone. I noticed the phone was off so I plugged it in and took it to the hospital with us. While waiting i took it apart and seen a little water. When I got home I put it in rice. Hopefully its not too late.
So i was driving and my phone falled on a small canal it's sitting there for under 10 seconds and my mom said keep it in rice for 2 days, hope it works
hey brother i have a question, so long story short i havent used this phone in weeks because i got a new phone... but then i lost the new phone so now im trying to use the old phone that i havent used in weeks... but when i try to charge my phone its saying moisture was detected... is it too late to put in rice?? or do i have to do it immediately
Thanks for video, I’ve just sealed it in rice. It was only in water for a few seconds. Hope it works ! Just one thing.. I can’t switch the phone off as the touch screen not working.
Should be labeled "How to destroy your device in 3 minutes or less". In all Seriousness if you have nothing on the device of value then this method isn't hurting nothing as if it don't work you just lost your device. but if your trying to save family photos etc. you may just cause more damage than good, the reason being that water is not actually conductive its the minerals in the water that conduct electricity so by using rice you are removing the water and leaving the minerals on the board, they may not harm anything but if they bridge the wrong components you could fry something important.
Hi i just saw your video i need advice plzz. I kept my phone on little spill of water yesterday night when u picked it up the screen started fluctuating and eventually i tried to power off and maybe it did power off. Then there were these vertical lines on the phone and now my phone is blacked out but it randomly restarts but no display. There is still water in the lower left corner it only affceted the lower left corner the water got into the screen. Today evening i kept the phone in rice but its been a while i put it in rice like after 12 hours. You reckon it will work 😢😢🥺
Anytime there is water exposure, it is best to put in rice and let it sit for as long as possible. 24-36 hours. You really want ALL the water to evaporate before you power the phone on again. Because even if there is a little moisture in the phone, running electricity/power through it will instantly damage the phone. Let it dry completely before using to prevent this. Best of luck!
Thank you so much this literally saved me from probably having another huge breakdown! My phone was perfectly fine but it said it had earbuds in and the speaker didn't work. I followed the video and completely submerged it in rice for 24 hours and thankfully this helped! My phones good as new. ^-^
Hi I dropped my phone into the beach but i picked it up within a second it was on for about 2 to 3 minutes then it turned off automatically, i dried out with the dryer and kept it in the jar full of rice hope this will work for me as well😭
Hey! does this work if we try to turn on and charge our phone after getting wet? stupid me did all of these mistake and didn't turn off the phone immediately. does the rice thing work?
i have s10 and accidently dropped it in the toilet for about 5 secs. whenever i try to charge it, it says that the phone is overheating. and then says that there is moisture detected in the usb port. i currently have it in rice and it's been there for about 12 hours now. i hope it'll be better when i try it tomorrow. fingers crossed!
@@redshuz8651 oh yeah it worked lol. At first it didn't. But that was because I was being impatient. I thought my phone was done for but all I needed to do was leave it in rice for a bit longer and try to resist the urge to take it out. Patience is key. We were just about to send it for repair aswell, so thank God it worked👍🏾
@@JMGENTERPRISES yeah I shook it and saw a lot of the tea come out and I gave it a good wipe then put it in rice for a day. It works perfectly fine now
Yes we live in j we set but have a cabin up the poconos and I jumped in the lake with my phone in my pocket lol. I put it in rice and yes it does take about 24 hours maybe more. I put mine in the sun and blew dry. The rice works great
hello sir, will this work if i have some yellow lines in my phone? i think theres water inside because yesterday i found out my back portion of the phone got wet, and i believe it is because of the phone case i have used. It is a phone case filled with water and some dust for design. Do you think this will work for me sir?
@@JMGENTERPRISES hello sir the yellow line is still visible as of now. and it has gotten worst :( i put it in a rice yesterday and left it for 24hrs and i just opened it now but still the yellow line is here. Please tell me what to do

I was washing the dishes in one hand and the other I had my phone and I accidentally sprinkled water on my phone. I put it in a tub with rice but no lid would it still work ? I don't have a glass container. Thank you for your help
That is a good question. I am unsure. Melted butter, bummer! I wouldn't think it would make it worse though. Let me know if you are able to save your phone!

@@wajihasayeedi8358 no, I went to repair my phone. They told me that this does not work it. You can let them clean your phone and they will take the water inside your phone might cost 5$ but you can still save your phone
My son dropped his iPhone in the bath tub last night. I initially tried to dry it with a blow dryer on cool but quickly realized that may not work & thought about rice I put it in the rice for about 30min & tried to power it on it came back on but the screen was green & had lines it shut off & I put it back in the rice, it's still there I'm going to wait the 24hr mark. I really hope it works. . .
It's best to never apply power if you know the phone has been exposed to water. I would for sure leave it in rice unpowered for 24 hours. Let me know how it turns out :-)
Thanks but since my phone went in the pool there's been some dust inside the screen which triggers me alot. Is it possible to fix it without removing anything?
I kept the phone inside the rice for a total of twenty four hours and the check only revealed the flash which had turned on in the Rice. However, the screen is still the same.
Thanks Al try it for my mom she accidentally dropped her phone in a bucket but took it out fast and removed the zim card and know it's under rice hope it works.. helpful video thanks
Decent rice doesn't have particles in it, or dust. I keep seeing that, & people saying it gets stuck in the earbud port, lol. 😂 Unless you're *cramming* it in there, just tilt the phone & it slides back out, IF any gets in there. & I don't see how. How NOT gentle are you guys being?! 🙄🤣😂 "Particles." Lmao. Rice is grains, solid! & Don't buy any weird broken or beat up or dusty rice anyway bc it would be mushy if you cooked it.
Don’t use rice I recommend just buying a cheap screen for a broken screen Because if you use rice there’s a problem the rice would get in ur charger port there’s a precent that it can get in there so that I recommend getting a cheap screen for a broke screen
You say in the video to shut your phone off. I didn't know about that. My phone fell in the lake it was 4 hours before I was able to get home and put it in rice. By then the screen stayed black so i couldn't turn it off. Do you think its fried? Its sitting in rice now
@JMG ENTERPRISES Thank you for this video. I do want your input on a story of mine-I was listening to music on my phone while running in Cross Country Practice, and my phone fell out of my pocket and into a knee-deep brook. After several minutes, my team members and I found my phone (hard to find, the phone was black and in a dark brook it blended in). My phone appeared to be all good except for the speakers so I kept using it. After helping my Grandmother Babysit my cousin's son, I put my phone in a plastic bag of rice about 2 hours after my team and I recovered it. Not sure if I powered it down. About 15 hours later I pulled it out of the bag and went about using it normally thinking everything was good as the speakers worked again. However, within a few days or a few weeks, I noticed the camera flash stopped working. It never worked again. Do you think if I had 1 Powered My Phone Down, and B left it in rice for a full 24 hours I would have been able to save my phone? 3 Months after my phone fell into the brook, I dropped it and the screen cracked so bad it that it was only usable for an alarm clock, so recorder, or a music player. I decided to use it as an alarm clock for a prank (It blasted Wannabe By The Spice Girls off at 2:30 AM on my targets). I think it was destroyed aftewards
Sorry for the late reply. Typically, if your phone is exposed to water, you don't want to touch anything. Just put it in rice. Any surge in power whether it be power it off or on can cause problems. Hope you were able to resolve it!
@@JMGENTERPRISES Thank you very much. No wonder my phone never worked properly after-since my phone appeared to be good I kept using it for a few hours after it was recovered from the water before I put it in rice. Remember, I was helping my Grandmother babysit my cousin's son I didn't have an opportunity to put it in rice immediately. I should have powered it down (not shut it off, power down) immediately after I found it rather than use it for hours. Sadly there was damage that could not be fixed because of my mistakes, that being the camera flash never worked again. Eventually I got a new phone and my old phone was left in my cousins bedrom where it played Wannabe by the Spice Girls to wake them up at 2:30 AM as a prank. They smashed my phone afterward
ive put my phone partially submerged in rice but i am going to do this now and see if it works, i hope it does as i do not have the money for repairs nor a new one... i will update with results!
@@JMGENTERPRISES Thank you! I ended up getting a new phone as the damage was very clear on my old one and I was told by several people it would stop working abruptly but it did make my phone turn on so whilst I'm thankful it worked, it did not completely cure my phone, but thank you anyways!
This worked! I dropped my phone in water and the charger and the sound was not working and I did this! Thank you so much!!!

This method really does work. I did this with a phone back in the 90s and it worked. I also used it recently on the Motorola Razr. It takes longer with the new phones because they are so tightly sealed. Be patient, it may take more than 24 hours. It may take a few days or a week. I just slide the phone down inside the bag of rice and tape it back up. Good Luck!
Glad you have had success with it too!!

How did it go!?
@@JMGENTERPRISES sorry forgot to update!
So what I had done since I didn't have rice was put the corner piece of a towel in the charging part (just in case) and wrapped it around my phone, then put it somewhere away from cool air/AC to remove the cold temperature my phone had been exposed to for a few hours. I let a 8-9 hours pass to be safe for excess water from the freezer that may have turned into vapor or frozen particles on my get sucked up and removed by the towel.
I hit the power button on my phone after that and miraculously, it turned back on like nothing happened. As of 2 months passing from when this happen (I am writing this comment via my phone right now), my phone still works perfectly fine. No signs of life loss, short-circuiting, slowly, component damage, anything that would accelerate the need for me to get a new phone!
Although I didn't do your method exactly, it still gave me an idea to try out and hope that my phone just got stalled and needed time to recover safely before powering back on. Thank you for the video- I appreciate it, it was helpful and gave me hope that my phone can still work. For anyone reading this, don't give up or lose hope, you have to try!
TLDR: thawed out my phone with a towel for 8-9 hours, turned it on and still works normal!
In a huge germophobe so before phones had decent water resistance I used rice a lot and it worked every single time. Haven't had the neeed for it because of water resistance in newer phones, but a few weeks back I dropped my expensive Sony so it's a hole in the back=water eventually got in and my microphone didn't work. Did the rice trick and it works again. I've done this trick probably 20 times with different phones, it always works. I don't care when others say that it's bs. I've seen it work so many times.
Glad to hear you've always had success! I too have used it many times over the years! Glad they are finally making phone water resistant 😃
do you leave it for 24 hours or longer?
Thank you sooooo much! I didnt want to lose my 7 years old phone and this video helped me!!!
Happy I was able to help ☺
Yesterday, I used my Google Pixel 7 Pro in the swimming pool for about 10 minutes. Suddenly, a warning appeared on the screen, and I realized that the SIM slot was not in the phone at all, allowing a lot of water to enter. I immediately turned it off. I left the phone as it was, but there is still water inside. After watching your video, which had many positive comments, I decided to follow your advice and placed my phone in a box as you suggested. I hope it gets fixed. I will keep it in the box for 60 hours and see what happens afterward.
Sorry to hear about the swimming pool incident! Best of luck! Let me know how it goes! 60 hours should be more than enough!
how did it go?
It took Year to fix my phone
@@JMGENTERPRISES Thank you so much for asking. The method you suggested worked, and my phone dried out. However, water got into the telephoto lens of the camera, which damaged it. I had to open the phone to change the camera, but Unfortunately, while the repairman was fixing it, the screen got Dead:/
Hello do you think this will work after my phone got water damaged 1 year ago unrepaired?@@JMGENTERPRISES
Thank you so much for this Video! I accidentally drop my phone in Water, haven’t able to turn off immediately and my phone turns black with some green lines. I left my phone inside rice for about 1 week. Lost my hope and tried charging for few times. But it was not working. I eventually bought new phone because i thought it’s really dead. i charged my damaged iphone after 4 weeks out of curiosity and voala! It works!! And im typing this comment to proof. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

did it leave marks on the screen or was it completely normal
@@user-qr6sl8zd4j screen is completely normal.😊

@@andreaochoa5969 - Hope it fixes it for you!
I have always been sceptical of this method and have never got any of my phones wet. However, I recently got soaked at work (part and parcel of working in Dewatering) and my phone got wet too. Initially it was still working and then died.
So when I got back home (2 days later) I thought I would try this...I just checked and it actually looks like it worked. It showed signs of life after an overnight stint with rice.
I have put it back in the rice so it gets the full 24hrs treatment and hopefully it will charge up tonight. I googled for a vid to see if I had done it right, and found this one. Cheers for sharing😁👍
How did it go!?
It worked for me. I dropped my phone in bathtub. First, I quickly turned it off, dried it with hair dryer and then kept it in rice container for 2 days. It is working fine now. Thanks
Happy to hear it! Congrats!
That's long but I am willing
How is the camera on phone? No moist after you did blowered and put in in a container with rice?
Had my phone in the washing machine for about 10 minutes, really hope this works. Thank you for the video
You're welcome! Fingers crossed it does! Let me know!
Did it Got better ?
Did it work? Cause i did same and i have been waiting
Please tell me ig it works
Did it work?
I'm scared, I don't know what to do. I accidentally dropped my phone in the water and It still works perfectly fine. The only problem I'm having is the speaker. It doesn't sound as clear as last time, I can still hear the sound, but the volume's low. Is putting this in rice a good idea? I'm also scared to charge my phone because I think there's still water in it.
Even if you phone is working well after being submerged, it's best to place in rice for a minimum of 24 hours.
The comments are really helping me calm down.. I just dropped my phone in the pool like 30mins ago and I hope the rice helps… it didn’t say anything about water damage but I just put it in rice anyways just to be safe … Thank you so much for the video ✨
Fingers crossed this method works well for you too! Let me know how it goes! Try and leave it in the rice for at least 24-36 hours. I know it's tempting to remove and test it but you really do not want to operate your phone if there is moisture inside.

@@JMGENTERPRISES does it work when your phone has a screen protector on?
Thank you for you're video saved my phone it took about 36 hours I'm all smiles now Thanks again
Woohoo! Happy it helped!
Q
Generally this isn't good advice, sure it dried out, but water isn't clean! It has minerals and containment's in it that get left behind.
These need removing before you power on your phone again, you need to see where any corrosion is happening and remove it, and maybe re-solder or replace parts that the water has corroded through. You need to look for any shorts in your rails before you cycle power through it or you will blow more caps!
Basically DO NOT STICK IT IN RICE OR TRY POWER CYCLE/CHARGE IT, if its still on when it gets wet, turn it off, and get it to a repair shop and hope they can save it. Basically keep your phone away from sources of water!
(FYI your battery or screen will probably need replacing, batteries and backlights are not friends with water!)
Appreciate your input!
It works. I’ve saved a few of my phones this way.
Happy to hear it!
Thank you for saving my phone. I dropped my phone in a bucket full of water for about 2 seconds, then I put it in rice overnight, and it's working now.
Yay! Glad to hear you were able to save it!

@JMG ENTERPRISES my girlfriend and I are looking at this video and noticed you're still responding to comments. You're a good content creator and we wish you continued success.
Thanks for your kind words! Yes, I try to respond to all comments 😀
Rice won't help dry the phone out, and possibly even makes oxidization of solder joints worse. Even using a sock or something, the powder gets inside the phone and holds moisture close to the board longer. You want to displace the water with 90+% alcohol or at least vacuum it out and put it in front of a fan. But the rice is at best a placebo and at worst damaging to the device.
Appreciate your thoughts and tips but I find the rice method to always work for me. Maybe placebo but it works!
@@JMGENTERPRISES it worls because your phone sat out

Hey man, your hack was helpful , thank you.
Awesome. Glad to hear it!
thanks for sharing man! I dropped my phone into a bucket of water and it won't turn on, so I thought I'll just wait for the phone to dry out itself for 2days and it still won't turn on
now I want to use this method but before I spend my money to buy rice, I wanna ask if it's too late to do that?
since I already let the phone wet for a long time, and I don't know much about tech, but maybe the moister inside got absorbed by some of the phone components so the rice probably does nothing, I just want to confirm if this method will still work after I let my phone wet for 2 days
Yeah, I would put in the rice even though it's been a couple days. Just make sure not to attempt to use the phone while water is still inside. That is when damage can occur.
Thank you so much!I dropped it in water for like 2 seconds and it wouldn't function and so I did this for 24 hours and it works
Awesome! Glad it saved your phone!
Hello, I have an iPod touch that I have been using for 7 years. I got it for Christmas in 2016 and I used it all the time until a few days ago, it ended up in the washing machine and it wasn't working. My mom tried putting it in a bag of rice, but after 7 or 8 hours I tried to plug it in to see if it was working, and it wasn't turning on. I then did some research and discovered that you have to put it in for at least 48 hours. So I asked my mom to put the iPod back in the rice for 48 more hours. I just tried charging it again an hour ago, and it still wasn't turning on. I also tried plugging it into my computer and it still didn't work. I don't know I'll get to use it again. I really hope I can still use it because I had a lot of important things on there, such as my photos, videos, even my old Flipaclip animations I made in 2017-2020. If I can't use it anymore, I'm literally going to cry. *PLEASE HELP ME* 😭😭😭
Honestly, I would leave it in rice for 24 hours minimum to make sure all the water is out.
Ok, so I tried putting it back in rice for 3 more days. It hasn't been turning on ever since, so I'm not sure if it will work or not.
Yes it really works, I tried it with my phone. It's amazing!
Awesome! Glad to hear it
Well after putting my boyfriend's cheap ass phone in rice at about 7pm yesterday. I took it out at 10am and plugged it in. I'll be dammed, the thing is working normally. I'm super surprised. I thought it was done for. ❤ the help is appreciated!
Yay!!! Glad to hear it!
How long should the mobile be kept in rice? if the phone is dropped in water for more than 1 hour?
I would personally let it sit for a full two days just to be certain.
Same the question came in my mind thank you for reply. But I can wait for 1month
So here we are September 24th 2023, and my bf dropped his phone in the toilet 😮 I put it in a giant tin container full of white rice when he got home from work. Second phone he's dropped in a toilet in under 30 days... Praying 🙏 this actually works because we can't afford a 3rd one.🤪🤭 Thanks for the lesson. I can't believe u replied to all of the comments.👼 ❤❤❤
I try and stay current with replying 😊 Fingers crossed it works for you! Try and leave the phone in as long as possible. You really want to make sure any moisture is gone before you power it up!
Absolutely works!! THANKS FOR SHARING!!❤❤
You're welcome! Happy to help.
Hello. Not sure if you'll see this comment but I was doing house chores today and made the mistake of washing the dishes with my phone perhaps too nearby. It has struggled to turn on, but more over, it has gotten these glitched lines on it and seems to be constantly ghost swiping to the right. I've just put it in rice now a few hours after the incident. Do you think with all of these symptoms in mind, your method might fix this issue
Sorry to hear about that. I would for sure leave your phone in the rice for at least 24 hours. Longer the better to make sure all the moisture gets out. Best of luck. Let me know how it plays out 🙂
I dropped my s10 in the pool and earlier when I checked LDI indicator was normal but when I got home it was completely red. I switched off the phone around a hour later and I left it to dry for four days now but still I can see vapour from the front cam. I'm scared to put it to charge or turn on!
I would probably bring it in to a Cell phone repair place and see what they think. A lot of times those places will open your phone up free of charge to access the damage if any.
@@JMGENTERPRISES ua-cam.com/video/KhE0fKcBUiA/v-deo.html
This guy repairs phones
I'm not saying this doesn't work but the small dust that rice is covered in can get into the phone and makes the problem worse
I hear what you're saying but I have never experienced that.
fun fact you're supposed to use silica gel because rice allows the water to corrode your phone faster.
I haven't heard of that before. I will have to look into it.
And rice can get stuck in the ports
great idea. just dropped my phone in the tub this morning. turned it off and put it in a bag of rice. about 12 hours in, I saw this suggestion. I'll leave it an extra day to be sure.

left my phone in the garage and got wet by the rain, will the fact that it was on and charging affect the rice method or not?
It shouldn't. A little rain shouldn't hurt either. Unless it's an old phone, most new phones are water resistant. I would still do the rice method for 24 hours if I were you. Best of luck!

Is that works for u?
@@indirak9737 no didn’t work
I know it's late, but what did you do after it isn't working??
Should we be cocerned that you've done this "several times"? LOL
Lol
Should be labeled "How to destroy your device in 3 minutes or less". In all Seriousness if you have nothing on the device of value then this method isn't hurting nothing as if it don't work you just lost your device. but if your trying to save family photos etc. you may just cause more damage than good, the reason being that water is not actually conductive its the minerals in the water that conduct electricity so by using rice you are removing the water and leaving the minerals on the board, they may not harm anything but if they bridge the wrong components you could fry something important.
Very true
so when you say very true we shouldn’t use this method ?
this happened to me last night. i left the case on only did it overnight. worked for me
Hi i just saw your video i need advice plzz. I kept my phone on little spill of water yesterday night when u picked it up the screen started fluctuating and eventually i tried to power off and maybe it did power off. Then there were these vertical lines on the phone and now my phone is blacked out but it randomly restarts but no display. There is still water in the lower left corner it only affceted the lower left corner the water got into the screen. Today evening i kept the phone in rice but its been a while i put it in rice like after 12 hours. You reckon it will work 😢😢🥺
Anytime there is water exposure, it is best to put in rice and let it sit for as long as possible. 24-36 hours. You really want ALL the water to evaporate before you power the phone on again. Because even if there is a little moisture in the phone, running electricity/power through it will instantly damage the phone. Let it dry completely before using to prevent this. Best of luck!
Will it work on silica packet as well?
That I am not sure about

Should I charge it first after I get it in rice or should I power on it eventhough it is not drained?
I would not charged it. You really do not want any electrical current going through the phone if there is water inside there.

I keep seeing that, & people saying it gets stuck in the earbud port, lol. 😂 Unless you're *cramming* it in there, just tilt the phone & it slides back out, IF any gets in there. & I don't see how. How NOT gentle are you guys being?! 🙄🤣😂 "Particles." Lmao. Rice is grains, solid! & Don't buy any weird broken or beat up or dusty rice anyway bc it would be mushy if you cooked it.
Don’t use rice I recommend just buying a cheap screen for a broken screen
Because if you use rice there’s a problem the rice would get in ur charger port there’s a precent that it can get in there so that I recommend getting a cheap screen for a broke screen
Buying a screen and having it repaired is expensive though. If rice does get in there it's easy to get out
You say in the video to shut your phone off. I didn't know about that. My phone fell in the lake it was 4 hours before I was able to get home and put it in rice. By then the screen stayed black so i couldn't turn it off. Do you think its fried? Its sitting in rice now
Hard to say. Hope it worked for you and saved it!
It did not. Had to use a repair place
Hii, does this method work with earbuds?? I recently dropped my Powerbeat pros in water.
Yes, I believe any electronics.
Does it have to be a glass container? can it be a plastic one?
I was taught to only use glass but hear others have success with plastic.
@JMG ENTERPRISES Thank you for this video. I do want your input on a story of mine-I was listening to music on my phone while running in Cross Country Practice, and my phone fell out of my pocket and into a knee-deep brook. After several minutes, my team members and I found my phone (hard to find, the phone was black and in a dark brook it blended in). My phone appeared to be all good except for the speakers so I kept using it. After helping my Grandmother Babysit my cousin's son, I put my phone in a plastic bag of rice about 2 hours after my team and I recovered it. Not sure if I powered it down. About 15 hours later I pulled it out of the bag and went about using it normally thinking everything was good as the speakers worked again. However, within a few days or a few weeks, I noticed the camera flash stopped working. It never worked again. Do you think if I had 1 Powered My Phone Down, and B left it in rice for a full 24 hours I would have been able to save my phone?
3 Months after my phone fell into the brook, I dropped it and the screen cracked so bad it that it was only usable for an alarm clock, so recorder, or a music player. I decided to use it as an alarm clock for a prank (It blasted Wannabe By The Spice Girls off at 2:30 AM on my targets). I think it was destroyed aftewards
Sorry for the late reply. Typically, if your phone is exposed to water, you don't want to touch anything. Just put it in rice. Any surge in power whether it be power it off or on can cause problems. Hope you were able to resolve it!
@@JMGENTERPRISES Thank you very much. No wonder my phone never worked properly after-since my phone appeared to be good I kept using it for a few hours after it was recovered from the water before I put it in rice. Remember, I was helping my Grandmother babysit my cousin's son I didn't have an opportunity to put it in rice immediately. I should have powered it down (not shut it off, power down) immediately after I found it rather than use it for hours. Sadly there was damage that could not be fixed because of my mistakes, that being the camera flash never worked again. Eventually I got a new phone and my old phone was left in my cousins bedrom where it played Wannabe by the Spice Girls to wake them up at 2:30 AM as a prank. They smashed my phone afterward
Does this still work if the water damaged the screen? (the display has that cloudy ish look)
It can yes! It draws out the moisture
ive put my phone partially submerged in rice but i am going to do this now and see if it works, i hope it does as i do not have the money for repairs nor a new one... i will update with results!
Best of luck! Yes, please let me know how it turns out for ya
@@JMGENTERPRISES Thank you! I ended up getting a new phone as the damage was very clear on my old one and I was told by several people it would stop working abruptly but it did make my phone turn on so whilst I'm thankful it worked, it did not completely cure my phone, but thank you anyways!
Amazing video, let us ask you this. If I drop it in the soup, does it make any difference as to what I have to do to avoid losing it???
Soup is mainly water anyway so it shouldn't matter. Although some soup has lots of salt in it and salt is never good as it causes corrosion.
