Dropped your iPod/Phone in Water–How to fix it?

How to dry your phone or iPod that is been dropped in water or washbasin. Here are the quick step you can follow to make your phone dry.

Step 2: Automatically your phone would have been switched off. Else switch it off immediately as the water should not flow inside the circuit board.
