My phone got some splash water. Unfortunately some water drops landed in the usb charging port. The phone gave me the error message that it detected moisture and i should dry it.

At some point the phone died because of low battery. I did not have charged it yet because of the concernings that the water and charging could damage the phone.

UPDATE: i used paper towels and let it dry overnight. I charged and there was no warnings.

Rice doesn't become soft and sticky unless you heat it while it's absorbing water

My family used rice for ages mixed in salt to keep it from clumping. It barely makes a difference. During sustained humid conditions the salt will clump, but the rice never softens or goes sticky.
