Have you ever accidentally dropped your cell phone in the sink, or even worse - the toilet?
Did you leave it in your pocket and run it through the washing machine and at times it's possible that your friends dunked you in a swimming pool just for the fun of it?
Or perhaps it fell out of your pocket and into the pet's water bowl?
The world suddenly freezes when you see your phone falling straight into water, you scream "wtf it cost me a. Pocket ,was my gf's gift or worst my dad wouldn't bring me a new one for my. fuc$%&# carelessness.
Getting your cell phone wet usually means you have to replace it ,unless u have a waterproof dude like LG G6.
But if it already dived in swimming pool ,then what
Here are a few things that you may want to consider when trying to save fix or revive a cell phone dropped in or exposed to moisture water or some other liquid.
STEP 1- ACT QUICKLY

STEP 2- TURN IT OFF
Do not turn on the phone, because Electrical components don’t play well with water when operating neither plug it in .For the same reason ,Don’t press any keys. This can push water further into the phone
so if you are not taking this step carefully the whole guide becomes void .

STEP 4- TRY TO DRY IT
When it is said to dry it ,
* never ever shake your phone water can go further deep
*avoid dryer for the same reason
* don't. Apply heat - it could well damage sophisticated machinery inside
Then what the f$$$$ to do
Just Cool down
Get a soft cloth or paper towel and use it to wipe exterior of your phone.
You can also use a vacuum cleaner , if u have any but be careful keep it far enough .
STEP 4- DRYING THE INTERIOR
most difficult yet most imp .

STEP 5- TEST IT
Proceed to this step only , at least 8 hr after step 4.
Turn it on
, try connecting charger, add earphones and other peripherical devices . if every thing works fine well and good
but if Some problem continues take it to a authorised dealer .
Don't try to hide the fact that it has been wet - there are internal indicators that prove moisture - and the repair people are more likely to be able to help you if you explain exactly what has happened to the phone
