[QUOTE="moonpiedumpling, post: 1152493, member: 182043"] I jumped in the pool with my iphone for about 30 seconds before I realised what I'd done. When I got out of the water I stupidly immediately pressed the power button and nothing happened. Next I took the case off and shook as much water as possible out of it, gave it a blowdry then put it in a ziplock bag of rice. It has been about 36 hours since the incident and I haven't touched any of the buttons since. Today I realised that I should take the sim card out. I did so and it was still wet at the bottom of the cradle thing so I left it out and now have it back in the rice. I can see a whole load of water air bubbles under the camera lens. What should I do from here? does it sound like there is a chance of it working again? Thanks, I'm really scared for my poor phone :( [/QUOTE]
