Wet screen+rice trick

well i was showering using hot water and my htc evo shift phone was completely dry from what i thought no harm on the sink. but it seems the steam from the hot water condensed on top of my screen and by the time i got out of the shower and noticed it was already too late. the top of my screen was completely dry but inside the screen has horrible water spots. my phone is functional but it looks absolutely horrible. i really need advice fast on what to do:(.

well have you tried the rice trick? put the phone in a sealed container and fill it with rice. leave it in there for as long as you can. it should absorb some of the moisture.

if that does not work then the only thing you can do is either take it apart so that the inside can dry out or take the phone in.

I had something similar happen...was working in the rain, had phone inside rain coat, but when I tried to use it , it wouldn't turn on. Put it in rice for an hour and it worked just fine.
 
Yeah I tried/heard the Rice trick works too but it didn't do anything but get rice in my phone
