Hello everyone!
So, let me explain my problem...
Three days ago, my phone went through the washing machine during a 30-degree wash...
I removed the battery, the micro SD card, and the SIM card; I cleaned the small contacts with 90-degree alcohol as I was advised; and I dried it with a hairdryer and then a vacuum cleaner (it might seem strange but oh well...). In any case, the traces of moisture on the screen and the lenses are gone. Then I put my phone in a box filled with rice.
I then tested my micro SD card on a similar phone (PHEW! The photos are not lost!); my SIM card (which seems to work too); and my battery (which works and shows 6%)...
The problem is that when my phone got wet, it was on, and it won't turn back on... I'm afraid there was a short circuit and it might be ruined!
If you have any advice, techniques, or anything like that, I'm all ears!!!
Thanks in advance, and well, that's life... :)

Hello,
According to your explanations, you've done what was necessary.
So there's not much more to do.
Already, a phone that falls into water for a few seconds is unlikely to work, so in a washing machine, with a full cycle, unfortunately, it's even worse.
Especially since in a washing machine, even if you dried it well afterwards, cleaned it, etc... you mustn't forget that it probably also took some hits in the drum.
This means there might also be a broken or unsoldered component.
Talk to you later.
