Dry it

Instead of using the rice trick to absorb the water that many attempt with a water damaged OnePlus 3, there are several better methods to absorb the water out of electronic device.

• Open Air.We compared the water absorption of eight different materials (including silica gel and rice.) None of these materials was as effective as leaving the device in an open space (such as a counter top) with good air circulation.
• Instant couscous or instant rice are acceptable substitutes for silica. In our tests, these absorbed water much faster than conventional rice. Instant oatmeal works too, but makes a mess of your phone.
• Silica Gel.The best common drying agent is silica gel, which can be found in the pet aisle of your grocery store as “crystal” style cat litter.

 
If all of those methods to fix your water damaged OnePlus 3, you can still sell your broken water damaged cell phone.
