First of all: Don't try to charge it or turn it on unless you're sure all the water has come out. You write it's gotten hot. That means the battery discharged very rapidly du to the water inside the iPhone. It might be the battery or surrounding circuits have been damaged by this, but first let's get the water out.
Put your iPhone in a closed container filled with rice (uncooked! fresh from the store). Rice is (like salt) pulling all water from it's surrounding. Don't use salt as salt can lead to heavy corrosion.
It's a good idea to open the SIM tray.
If you keep this jar/box in a warm place for several days all water will evaporate from the iPhone case into the rice. After that you shouldn't see any traces of humidity left on the iPhone. If unsure leave the iPhone with the rice for a few days more.
Plug the charger in and wait a few minutes to see if the charging indicator shows up or the iPhone starts. Be prepared to pull the plug in case the iPhone gets host very fast. Good Luck.
this iphone repair is rated "easy" Either you need to replace Charging dock connector ot you need new battery. but 90% chances you should change charging connector and it should fix the problem.
You either have a bad battery or you have a bad charger. If the phone heats up when you plug it into the USB port on a computer then you know that the battery is bad and needs to be replaced. If the phone does not heat up and you get a normal charge from the USB connection then you know that the battery is good and the charger is bad.
it could also be that the iphone is too warm / hot. turn off the screen, lock it while it charges otherwise if the phone is too warm before getting charged the phone has a built in sensor that will stop it from charging until its cool enough to continue.. its a safety feature.
