Well, dear friends. Something tragic has happened to my beloved iPhone
On Saturday morning (due to my own stupidity) I dropped my iPhone in the toilet. Who does that? (Luckily the toilet was clean!).
I pulled it out immediately but the backlight on the screen had already disappeared. I wiped off the phone, turned it off and turned it back on. Still a dim screen. Immediately I came online and researched. I found out I should NOT turn the phone on and off and should dry it out (shake it, use a blow dryer on low on it) and then set it in a bag of rice for a couple of days. I had no rice. I ran to the store and grabbed rice. I came home half an hour later and hoped the phone would have fixed itself. Turned it on. Got a white screen. I put the phone in the bag of rice for 48hrs. I checked it today. Still the white screen.
*tear*
The phone is still working… I an hear it doing things. I can even touch the screen and it will click on my apps, etc. I just can’t SEE anything because it’s a white screen!
Water damage voids any warranty on it.
Anyone have any suggestions or experiences with this? I am desperate! My life has (sadly) ceased without my iPhone!
I can put my SIM card in my stupid old motorola phone for now so at least I have a phone for drive. I hate it though.

You should call apple and return to them, they will fix it or send a new one, but it will cost you something. However, it won't be the cost of a new phone. I dropped my iTouch in a glass of soda and they sent me a new one for $112. You should def call them and figure out your options though.
Ugh... that sucks. I heard the rice trick too. Hope you can get it figured out and they'll repair it for a fair price.
