I dropped my phone in water with minor water damage and fixed it by wrapping it up with a black t-shirt and letting it sit in the sun for 30 minutes through a window. After that I just unwrapped it, I put the battery back in as well as the sim-card and whala, it worked again. I can’t guarantee that this will work 100%, but i’m sure it will fix a lot of phones that have been water damaged the fastest way possible. 1st) Clean the phone with a towel/shirt from any visable water as well as the battery, and sim card. 2nd) Take everything out, battery, sim card, and face plate (if possible) 3rd) Wrap it in a clean towel/shirt. 4th) Let it sit in the sun for 30 minutes with the battery. (through a window if you want to be like me) 5) Check on it after 30 minutes, if it was a hot day and the shirt/towel is very hot, then take it away to a cooler area. If it is just mediocre hot, then leave it there for another 5 minutes then take it away to a cooler area. 6) Put everything back together in the phone. 7) Turn it on.
If it works, leave a comment, any other details on what you did differently. IF it didn’t try again.

Less than 5-10 minutes, any longer and it probably will have soaked into the phone and which it could possibly be unrepairable.

Maybe the battery got damaged the most, either try drying it out even more and hopefully that fixes it or either replace it.
