Water Damaged Screen? What to Do Next

Please note Fix For You cannot be held responsible for using any of the tips below.
1.Take it out of the water as soon as possible, so try to grab it as quickly as you can.
2.Turn off your phone as soon as possible. If you see any sparks then do not touch the phone.
3.Towel dry off. Do not use a hair dryer or put on a radiator, the heat can damage the delicate internal components.
4.Remove any parts that come away like sim card tray, if it has a back cover that comes off then remove that, also memory cards and if you can the battery.

6.Leave for several days for the phone to completely dry out, do not be tempted to turn back on.
7.Turn the phone back on and test. If it is still not working then you need a professional service.
