Did you drop your handset in water?

Water soaked cell phoneWell did you ever drop your mobile phone or your iPod in water accidentally? What do you do after that except panicking? Go to the company’s service center to get it repaired at a heavy pocketing cost? From now on you don’t need to do that because you already must be having a low-cost (Ah! Free!) solution to get your gadget fixed at home!

Be sure your water soaked device is switched off and then just cover it in a bowl with rice for about 24 hours. Chances are that your gadget will start working perfectly!

But why rice? Rice being a natural desiccant will help absorb the excess moisture. Well, saves your money and time by not getting you to go to the official service center! :)
