Dropped phone in liquid

[g2uzer]

So I dropped my phone in a bowl of soup... Yes lmao! But anyways my back cover save it big time, only the top half of my phone when in, I pulled the battery off, sim card and sd card, wipe it and I checked it and both water marks are still white then I put it in a bag with rice. 24 hrs later I put the battery in, it turned on and everything works, except it was showing the headphones icon, I clean out the headphone hole again, turn it off, turn it back on and it was gone, I unroot it just incase it started to act up I could swap it out.( i have insurace) It's been a full day and no issues

OK so my question is should I root it again now or wait to see if something stops working? I think by now something should of been affected already but what do you think?

if you have insurance and won't cost you anything to replace the phone, then use it.

Other than that, rooting or unrooting won't matter on a phone that's been dropped in water.

I'm sure he is asking about the rooting of the phone is cause trying to swap a phone with root/custom rom will not go well for him.

Sorry I guess I didn't make my question clear, what i was really asking was that my phone is working right now, but does my phone run a high risk of something going bad in the next few days or I'm just lucky and nothing broke?

Might be a dumb question but I never had any phone dropped in liquid so I'm not aware if the phone stops working right away or it takes a few days for it to go bad

Don't want to root and then something stops working and I won't be able to flash stock.

I would try to root it, after all it's dry now and everything functions.

My experience has been if it turns on the next day its all good for many more bowls of soup lol. Or washer and dryer like my olllld bb

Making bad decision's one at a time.
