My kindle fire dropped in a puddle
My whole kindle fell in a huge puddle and got completely wet. I put it in rice right away. But what else can I do and is the kindle going to be OK?
Esta é uma boa pergunta?

kelly hennessy, the very first thing I would suggest is that you no longer try to turn it on or to charge it. this could cause further damage. Disassemble your Kindle, by following this teardown. It is a teardown and not a concise guide, so do it slowly. Once you have it disassembled remove the battery and clean everything with 90%+ isopropyl alcohol. Use a small soft brush to clean all the connectors. Do not forget to clean under every EMI shield etc. and do not forget the power/sync connector Be very conscientious how and where you clean. Once it is cleaned replace the battery reassemble and re-evaluate.

kelly hennessy, which Kindle is it? For now, do not try to power it on or to charge it. This could make things worse...
