Shake the phone to release excess water drops from the inside of the phone.Leave Open to DryLay the three pieces of the phone on a towel and leave the phone cover open for the inside to dry. Patting the sim card and battery dry with a towel is acceptable. Popular Mechanics.com says, “The most important thing to remember is to avoid heat. That means no hair dryers, ovens, microwaves or extended periods in direct sunlight.” A can of compressed air can also be used to blow moisture out of the inside of the phone.Test Once DryWait about a day for the phone to dry completely before testing it.
