    if the phone was off at the time it entered the water, and you have yet to turn it back on, then yes. but if you attempted to turn it on when it was still wet, then it is most likely junk.

    if it is wet with an electrically contuctive liquid such as water, and you supply power to the circuits then you most likely have fried it because of the water acting like a short between to separate lines.

    my advice if the above has yet to occur: make sure the battery is off, and let it set near a fan for a day. if that doesn't cure it then you will need to get a new phone (you should also invest in phoine insurance, its worth it!)
