Any time you drop a phone or tablet in water the first thing is to remove the battery if you can. Dry it off with a towel then place in a bowl of rice or kitty litter. Leave it over night them place it on something warm. I find my cable box to be very warm when it is on. The longer you wait the better. At least 12 hours and then reinstall the battery. Hope for good luck after that! This is the cheapest way to save a phone that has been in water!
