What Should I do if the Phone Battery is Flooded?

Nowadays, general smartphones can last at least 2 to 3 years, but there may be accidents, such as the phone falling out of water. When the phone is flooded, most people will be in a hurry, then blow the water from the phone with a hair dryer. However, in fact, these seemingly reasonable ways are all wrong. What should I do if the phone battery is flooded? Let us introduce a practical and effective method.

Step 1: get back the phone. If the phone falls into the water, hurry up and fish out. The longer the phone is soaked in water, the more likely it is that the phone will be damaged.

Step 2: Remove the battery. Do not press any button, do not turn off the phone, just open the phone and remove the battery. If it is a non-removable battery like the iPhone? Carefully turn it off as soon as possible and turn off the power to prevent the phone from shorting.

Step 3: remove the water. Remember, do not blow dry with a hair dryer or bake it near the stove, as external heat can damage the electronic components inside the phone. The correct way is to wipe quickly with a clean towel to ensure that water does not flow into the sockets such as the charging port and the headphone jack.

Step 4: drying treatment. Many people put their phones in dry rice bags for 24 to 36 hours, or even longer. This is indeed a simple and convenient method. However, this method also has a number of disadvantages. In order to be safe, the mobile phone must be wrapped in a paper towel and then put into the rice.

Follow these tips to make it possible to fix your phone. In addition, you can also try electronic product dehumidification bags, product desiccants, rice drying bags, etc. In fact, they all have the same principle. But if the situation is too bad, change it buy a new one!
