Welcome to Android Central! Rice test? Do you mean that the phone got wet and you tried to dry it out in a bag of rice? This is no guarantee that it will prevent any damage. If there is water damage, the warranty is void. Sorry!

Actually, drying a phone in a bag of rice almost guarantees that there WILL BE damage. Water in the phone, if there's no battery in it, doesn't do any harm. But unless it's triple-distilled, deionized water, it's got impurities in it, and THAT'S what causes the damage - salts, acids, etc. Putting the phone in rice just dries it out, concentrating these impurities, damaging the phone faster.
