I drop my iphone 4s in the toilet on Saturday and its been in rice since and I tried to power it and it wont turn on. Do you all think my phone will not work and I will need to get a new one?? I have lots of pictures that I would like to save but i guess since its been wet i have lost all the pictures.

Maria Lozano, there is always hope and nothing left to lose. Rice is a great first aid, but it does not prevent any kind of corrosion. The best thing to do is to stop using the device, (remove the battery) and to totally disassemble it. Use these guides for that. Then clean it with +90% isopropyl alcohol. This will displace the water and stop corrosion. It it okay to submerge a board in isopropyl alcohol. After that, air dry all the components. Do not forget to clean the connectors on the board as well as the cables. Then re-assemble with a new battery This is not optional but a must to avoid failure later on. Check your board for any missing or damaged component. Water damage is the toughest to trouble shoot and to repair. Hope this helps, good luck.

Water damage is hit or miss. It is easier to save a wet phone than a dry phone---so get that sucker out of the rice. Please help to dispel this myth---rice is the same as doing nothing, which is the same as doing harm when you are battling against time.
Get your phone into alcohol to displace the water ASAP. Get a new battery and give us an update.
