Hi. Water being a good condutoctor may make a phone seem dead when present on the mainboard as it resuld in abnormal power flow (including short-circuits). Plunge it in silica or rice for hours to get it fully dried up and you may be suprised (do not install the battery until it is dried up lest the battery drain to death). You can also get it opened up and rinsed with Spirits.


Hope that is helpful.
