Hello Guest,

If more than an hour or two has elapsed since your phone got very wet, you can write it off.

Be more careful next time, please.

The delicate copper traces, printed wiring and connections inside, will by now be corroded, and the phone is not worth fixing.

Kind Regards....

Sometimes they will work again.

Take the battery out. Dry it out for 48 hours. Use hairdryer. Be careful not to overheat.

If you are handy disassemble and clean contacts with alcohol. I have recovered several phones this way.

It may not be worth the bother though as previous commenter advises.
