The short: A drying agent and using a small amount of dry heat to completely rid your iPhone of any moisture.

1. Take iPhone out of water immediately & turn off (if your phone isn't responding, try holding the power button and menu button for about 10 seconds to do a manual reset).

2. Dry all moisture from the outside of the iPhone. Remove any covers and the SIM card.

3. Vacuum any moisture from the insides as best as possible.

2. Put iPhone in plastic bag with several silica gel packs, uncooked rice or a Dry-Phone*.

3. Leave in the sealed environment for at least 24 hours - or longer.

4. The safe temp for an iPhone is up to 45º C (113º F) so if you decide to put it somewhere warm to quicken drying do not exceed these temps. (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1871?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US)

5. After 24-48 hours, turn on your iPhone (you may need to plug it in - be careful and make sure its 100% dry otherwise you're taking a risk of both your iPhone and fire)

6. Completely Restore iPhone by plugging it into your computer & using iTunes to completely restore device. This step is absolutely necessary to protect your data or restore your iPhone from the last backup.

You need to try Silica Gel Packets to dry out your phone. You need to place your cell phone in a zip lock bag with Silica Gel Packets. Silica Gel will remove all the moisture from the phone and its components, something air drying will not do! Just Google "Silica Gel Packets" and you will find several companies selling these products.
