Title:

Dropped my phone in Water

Text:

Hi, i dropped my phone in water i took it out straightaway and put it in rice. i know some people say rice does not work but i didn't know any other methods to use in order to salvage my phone.

My phone screen sometimes comes on for a short period of time, but then it turns black mainly. My phone still works, meaning it vibrates when i try to unlock it and i can see my notifications on my home screen etc.

can anyone recommend a way i can get my screen to work?

Also, if i was to take it to a repair shop would that issue only be a screen replacement or would it be something else?

I hope someone will be able to help, thanks :)
