My iPhone works.  For those that know me, they know that I am much like a little kid with my phone.  It is not just a mode of communication for me.  I read on it, learn on it, share on it...My iPhone carries so much around in its little frame.  My Bible, my family photos,  and my favorite game, Scrabble to name just a few.

Ok, here's how my sound and iPhone came back to life.  First, I forget to thank iFrogz. This is where I purchased my hard case and invisible shield.  Without either, I don't think my iPhone would have made it.

Now for the rest of the process to bring your iPhone back:

  • I took out the sim card by using a safety pin. Once removed, I carefully wiped it down.  
  • Used a blower set on warm for 5 minutes on both ends and side with audio button
  • With headset plugged in, I had my son play a game on it until the battery was drained ( i had read that I should get the battery hot on a blog post and at this point I still had no sound)
  • Fully charge the phone (leave it alone with charging, of course)
To my surprise, my iPhone is completely back and 100% okay.  YES, you read that right 100% okay after taking a dive into a pond.  It may have taken 3 days but I only was without the iPhone the first day (as I have no patience and had to use what I could on it during the day! and gave it therapy at night) I wish you luck if your iPhone has met water recently. I recommend not giving up hope or just right it off as gone.  There is a possibility it will come back to you.  Also, if you do have an iPhone or any cell phone, BUY A HARD CASE for it.  The investment may safe it from drops and water.
