[QUOTE="boyGenius72, post: 1279676, member: 210793"] I got some after on my iPhone 3Gs, and I didn't think it was enough to damage it, but apparently it was. I went home, it seemed completely dry, but it wouldn't turn, so I plugged it into a wall charger. The screen appeared really dim so I thought it probably shouldn't be on, and I unplugged. Now I can't even be sure if it's on or off, or if it's really water damaged or not. So I saw condensation inside the camera lens and I put it in a bag of rice krispies for a day (that's all I had) and now I need to know if I should try turning it on. It won't wake from standby but I don't know if that means it's really on because the water could make it dysfunctional, and it might really be on... So what do I do?:'( Edit:Basically, how do I make sure it's off so I can suction the top panel off and dry it out? [/QUOTE]
