Soap and water damaged iPhone.

So my iPhone got a mix of soap and water on it, not sure how much but it can't be much since it wasn't submerged under it. My brother tried fixing it but gave up quickly(possibly so he could buy a newer one). My question is, what actions do you take to an iPhone damaged like that if it's been over, lets say, 3 months? I've read about the rice bag but I think it's too late. And I've looked at the supposably red/white or whichever color it should be dot but can't see anything no matter how bright the light is. So the longer you wait, the worse it gets or....?

Zana, biggest thing with any immersion is that fact that if not cleaned, corrosion will ultimately lead to a slow death. Follow this guide and see if you can resurrect your phone. Once cleaned. Reevaluate and see what you got. Good Luck
