Things you should
do when your phone is exposed to water
Remove the phone from water immediately.
Remove the phone from the water or moisture as quickly as possible. If
you dropped your phone in the toilet take it out of the toilet, if you realised
your phone fell inside the gutter filled with water, remove it quickly or Whatever
the circumstance separate your phone from that source of moisture as quickly as
you can.
Don’t press anything
Do not try to test your phone to see if it is working and do not use it
until it has completely dried.
Switch off your power
If water or some other liquid was just dropped onto your phone, your
phone was just dropped or
submerged in water, or if your phone was just exposed to moisture in some other way shape or form then the first thing that you need to do is to try and cut the power to the phone in order to decrease the possibility of an electrical short.

Pull the battery
If your phone is designed to allow you to remove the battery then take
out the battery immediately. Don’t bother turning your phone off; do not wake
it up if the screen is asleep, just pull out the battery without delay.
For phones with Non-removable battery
Not every phone allows its user to pull out its battery. If your phone
is designed with a non-removable battery then go ahead and power your phone off
like you normally would. But power it off right away and without delay.
Take off all external accessories
In order to allow your phone to breathe a little easier go ahead and
take off all of the external accessories such as a protective case, its memory
card (if it has one), its SIM card (if it has one), its battery cover (if
applicable), etc. Take those pieces off of the phone, dry them with a clean dry
cloth and then set them aside so that you can focus on drying your cell phone.
Dry in the open air
Put your phone in the open air and allow it to dry and if possible, use
a very dry cloth to remove the water on the surface of your water and try not
to tilt your phone too much less you allow the water that is on inside to
spread to other parts of your phone.
