What to Do When You Drop Your Phone in Water
Last year at CMA Music Fest, I was watching Joe Nichols at an outdoor show, when a sudden rain storm came up and completely soaked me, and my phone. Disaster. Someone told me to put it in a bag of rice, which I thought was really crazy, but IT WORKED! But I figured there were other ways to get out of a disastrous situation - your phone is, or was, underwater, dropped in the toilet, left outside on a ledge and went in the lake....whatever! Our friends at Supercompressor have a couple of really awesome solutions to this age old problem - thank you!
Take it out, and Turn it off
Remove the SIM Card and Battery
Dry it Quickly, and Don't Use a Hair Dryer
Stick it in SILICA
Wait
Test It
Breathe
Check out more detailed info about what to do, and what NOT to do, and good luck, ya'll!
