Have you ever lost your cell phone or other beloved electronic device due to excessive water damage? If so then this is the egg for you!
All you need is a bowl of rice ($2 at food lion)
And your wet device
then simply place your wet device(NOTE:be sure take place the battery and back plate in there seperately[take the phone apart]) into the bowl of rice and the moisture from within will be absorbed by the rice and your phone will most likey be saved. I know this egg was short but that is all there is to it.

I don’t have any way of testing this so I’m not voting until someone else says this works.

This will only work if the current that was short circuited through the device did no damage, then it’s a simple dry out problem which this would solve.
