Back in mid August, dropped my S10+ in the lake at my dock in about 10 feet of water. It took a month before a scuba diver was able to bring it back to the surface.
I removed it from the basic case it was in and put it in a Ziploc bag with some uncooked long grain rice.
After about 3 week, I took it out and put it on the wireless charger, the screen flashed a bit (a good sign).
Then when removing the SIM card, I found some water with it, so I left the SIM card carrier out of the phone and put the phone back in the Ziploc with the rice.
I removed the phone this morning and put it on the charger. Red light on the charger showing it being charged, and went to work.
I came home and the charger light was green, tried turning it on and, it came on with no problem.
It connect to my Wi-Fi, told me there was an update, and it is now installing the 2nd system update.
At this point I can't find anything wrong, photos are there, all the buttons work, camera works.
I had replaced the phone with a S21 Ultra days after losing the phone. (the 3rd Samsung I have owned now)
Now I have a replacement for when the S21 goes diving in the water without my permission.
