If the phone was water damaged, then the first thing I would do is get power off that board and get it back apart. The motherboard should be removed and cleaned with alcohol and a soft brush to remove any corrosion that will form around all the tiny circuitry on the board.

Its also very possible that the screen is dead and will need replaced. Water is not easy on those types of components. If its still powering up then that's a good thing, but more than just a new battery is almost always needed for liquid damage.
