Is there any way to fix water damaged phone? A commercial video stored in the phone is very important to me. How can I recover it to my computer?

You are not alone who have the same situation. It's obvious that when anything drops into water, it completely goes off and the same thing happens to Android devices. Actually, there are actions that you should do and not do after Android phone dropped into water. Here is the list:

1. Take the device out from water immediately.
2. Turn off the device and remove battery as soon as possible.
3. Remove every parts of the device which are removable like SD card, SIM card, etc.
4. After taking above actions, keep your phone in a sealed pack of rice for drying.

What You Shouldn't Do:

1. Don't switch on the device if it is turn off after water damaged.
2. Don't press keys if your phone has so as to avoide water spreading over other components.
