If a disaster like that happens, do not panic. What should be remembered, do not try to turn on the phone (if directly turned off after exposed to water or mud). Here are some tips to overcome it.

Hold your phone vertically so that water flows easily, cover the holes on the phone like an audio jack, USB ports, speakers and microphone as best you could with your fingers, then flush with water until clean. Do not add soap although smelled a bad odor. This can be done later after dry.

Blow-dry
The faster you dry a wet cell phone, it will be better. First, do not turn on the phone or press any button when the phone is in wet conditions.
