iPhone 6 Submerged in Saltwater

So I went out in the salt water at my town beach and I had my Silver 64GB iPhone 6 in my shorts pocket and next thing you know I tripped over a rock or something and quite a bit of my iPhone got submerged. When I took it out of my pocket I noticed part of my screen just suddenly went white and the rest was black. Any ideas as to what to do to? Hopefully putting it in rice for 24 hours will resolve the issue.


I really appreciate the feedback!

Thanks,

Sam

If it was salt water the phone is dead. You should be eligible for an out of warranty replacement for $299, as long as the phone was never jailbroken or opened.
