• Turn off the phone.
• Remove the phone case.
• If you can open the back, remove the battery.
• Remove the SIM card and microSD card if it has one.
• Use a clean fabric or paper towel to dry the phone, tenderly touch around the creases and openings.
• Try not to dry the phone in the sun. Keep it in a cool and dry spot.
• Use a cotton swab to clean the charging ports and other open spots on the phone.
• Instead of rice, use silica gel(it is mostly found in new products) packets, to dry the phone.
• Fill a plastic bag with silica gel packets and cover the phone for 24-48 hours. After that, switch it on and charge it completely if necessary. If the phone doesn’t turn on right away, charge it completely and attempt once more.
• Take it to a phone repairer or specialist if it still doesn’t turn on.
