You need to remove all the varistor that is on the keypad teh components that has a "V" on it look beside the "LED" on the keypad. Also before doing that soke it in Vodca its a good alcohol to clean with, use tooth brush and scrab scrab scrab!

you should of never tried to turn your phone on,you burned it up,if you wouldve immediately taken the battery out and dried it in rice,it might of worked,not good
If you think you can do it taking the whole phone apart worked for someone i know. don't know if it's to late since you powered it up already. Probably worth a shot though.
if you took the phone apart and let it dry but its still acting funny you very likely fried the computer board inside the phone. If the phone was on when you dropped it in liquid you probably did. Also, the lemonade having sugar has likely caused corrosion inside the phone. you could clean the inside of the phone with alcohol and see about getting it to co-operate, but be careful and keep yourself grounded and leave the battery out when you clean. You might be s-o-l
Sometimes when electronics are dropped in water, you can still use the. Circut boards have a silicon coat over the circut boards for instances like this. Depending on how long it was in the water, you may be able to still use it. Let the phone dry out for about 24 hrs (take out battery and back cover) then try to replace the battery and start it back up. If it doesnt turn on the circuts were affected and it broken.
This happened to me when I dropped my phone in the sink. I took it all apart and laid all the parts out to dry for 2 hours. It works fine now. You can also try doing a hard reset. Keep the phone turned on and take the battery out. Wait 30 secs before replacing the battery. If that doesn't help, try calling your service provider.
There's still water in it. You'll need to take the battery out and let it dry another two days. I got my phone wet one time and it took a week before it worked again.
