Doesn't start

My iPhone has been exposed to some minor water. When I press the start button the apple logo shows up for 2-5 seconds then the screen flashes and turns dark, then does the same again and repeat.

Any idea on what could've happened?

Water damaged iPhone XS won't start Last night my phone fell in the water. And i thought it would be fine, because my iphone can get in the water for half a hour. But this morning my phone went dead and when i tried to dock it, but it didn't work. I get an apple logo on my screen, but then the screen goes black again. So it won't start up anymore. Even when I try to charge my phone. Can someone help me? I don’t have a lot of money, so idk what to do… [Re-Titled by Moderator]

Iphone X won't start after getting wet. Have read how to restart-nothing works, doesn't charge. Any other suggestions? iPhone X won't start after getting wet. Apple logo pops up, disappears, pops up again. Tried pushing volume up, down, then start button, no change. Connected to iTunes, computer does not sense phone. What next?

Flashing logo and no charge When I try restarting the IPhone 12 Pro Max apple logo just blink for a half second and after 10 seconds directly shows Home Screen rather showing apple logo for atleast 10-15 seconds which is normal. Also sometimes iPhone does not start to charge and I receive a message that there is water in the lighting port. But there is no water exactly.

Hey,

You could always try putting the iPhone into recovery mode, and connect it to a computer where you get the option to restore the device. If that doesn't help then the phone most likely experience liquid damage and you'll need to get it serviced.
