With the beginning of summer the good weather has been installed throughout Spain, starting the pool season and travel to the beach.For a long time, the mobile phone has become one of the devices that cannot be missing in the bag to go down to take a dip.However, the danger of accidentally falling to water is quite high.
Although phone manufacturers usually launch devices with water and dust resistance, it must be remembered that even so the first of these elements remains the great enemy of smartphones.Therefore, the best thing to do is keep the mobile away from the water, although sometimes it can be complicated.
For example, the situation in which a person gets into the water is not rare without realizing that he still keeps his mobile in his pocket.If for the reason that the smartphone is ends in the depths of the pool, we must not panic, since you can always perform a series of actions to try to recover it to work again.
Off and without loading
When a mobile falls to the pool or the bathtub, it must be taken into account that the sooner it is taken from the water, since the longer the water will pass, the water will penetrate the device.Therefore, the consequences can be worse.

One of the first reactions you have when the mobile falls into the water is trying to turn it on.However, the latter is something that should never be done, and the reason is simple: short circuits can be caused to repair it is even more complicated.
Similarly, in the event that the mobile phone has fallen into the water on, it is important to turn it off quickly to avoid short circuits.For this, dedicated buttons must be used.Nor should we load it, since with this you can even spoil the cargo cable itself.
Once several days have passed in the process of drying, it is when you must try to turn it on to check if the smartphone still works.If you have done, it can be used normally.Of course, in the case of detecting a short circuit or strange noises, it is important to turn it off quickly and take it to the technical service, however, it is important to emphasize that in that case the guarantee will not cover water damage.
Extract the components
Once you have the mobile phone out of the water and off, the next step to try to make the damage as little as possible, and try to get it to continue, it is to extract all the components that can be.

For example, if the housing can be removed, the battery - although there are currently few models that carry a removable - and the SIM card tray and the microSD.Each of these components will dry better separately, always by towels and not with a hair dryer.
In addition, when all components are removed, water is also facilitated from the terminal.Therefore, performing this action is more important than it may seem.
Drying, without heat
At this point, one of the most important phases begins: you have to dry it.Before that we must take into account an important thing, heat, such as a hair dryer or place the device in the sun should not be used.
To dry the mobile, a towel and absorbent paper must be used, both on the sides and on the screen and in its posterior area.In the case of ports and other holes, you can blow gently and carefully until you remove the drops of water inside.
Beyond rice
A good idea to try to recover the mobile phone is to introduce it into a series of elements.Rice is perhaps the best known, it works, but it is not the most effective.You simply have to put the smartphone in rice for at least 48 hours, since the rest of the liquid that is inside the terminal is absorbed.

However, you can also immerse the mobile in cat sand, oat flakes or in a bowl with silica bags, the classic bags that accompany several products to avoid moisture.Keep in mind that, regardless of the method used, the phone will have to remain in said substance for two days.
Another option that can be used is a dehumidifier as support to try to extract moisture from the mobile.After 48 hours, it is time to check if there is still liquid on the smartphone, especially in the openings.
In any case, in summer it is best to use the mobile phone in the water with the appropriate protections.There are covers that prevent the mobile from between water.And although the vast majority of them (especially high ranges) are certified to be submerged in fresh water, any blow they have received may have made it lose their insulating capacity and the water can be filtered into the phone.
