Quit trying to get it to do anything until it's TOTALLY dry. The best way to get it dried out is to put it in a container filled with rice, then put it in a warm place, like in the sun coming through a window or even an oven with the temperature set to the lowest setting. Let it rest that way for 24 hours (at least) before trying to do anything else with it. It "may" dry out and work again.
You need to try Silica Gel Packets to dry out your phone. There was a good article on associatedcontent.com that explains how to dry a wet cell phone, iPods, or any electronics.
You need to place your cell phone in a zip lock bag with Silica Gel Packets. Silica Gel will remove all the moisture from the phone and its components, something air drying will not do!
Just Google "Silica Gel Packets" and you will find several companies selling these products. There is also a web site called: http://www.SilicaGelPackets.com that has them.
I have seen many phones get wet.I have seen many phones left out to dry overnight no matter how wet(little-lots).Not once have I seen one come back on.Sorry,just being honest.I would rather tell you that than have you try stuff that won't work anyway.
Good luck! Greg
i had the same issue when my phone got slightly wet. try taking everything apart (sim card, battery, back). let them dry out for a little bit then after like a day or two put the phone back together. turn it on it will be a white screen for a little bit but give it like 2 or 3 mins and if should come back. I did this for my phone cuz i really needed the pictures off it and it worked! hopefully if will work for you too. GOOD LUCK!
In my experience when getting a phone wet your only choice is to let it sit. It could take a few days or a month but soon or later they usually fire back up.
