i took out the battery and let it dry. But i want to know what i need to make it work again; what do i need to buy?
 
well sorry kid you cant.anyway the screen will have water in it and it will be hard to see.get a new cell phone
 
These guys don't know what they are talking about. Water itself doesn't conduct electricity (it's the impurities, though obviously present in a pool) and more importantly there isn't some magical "water breaks electronics" rule.

The trick is if the impurities in the water allowed the device to damage itself, IE if signals/electricity goes where it shouldn't be going. Sometimes this will destroy the device, sometimes it won't.

The screen comment is BS, unless it is a cheap piece of crap the screen should be sealed off to prevent against air bubbles and whatnot.

The trick is you might think your phone is dried out, but there's a good chance inside it isn't. If you have the tools and know-how (NOTE: doing so will void any warranties) take it apart to let it dry faster. Otherwise I would give it a couple more days to be safe.

Then try to turn it on, it's that simple. If it works it works, if not- these days it's probably cheaper to replace than try and get fixed.
 
Dint worry. Now days mobile wont get electronic problem early before going to use it switchoff it dry it in sun light air dry for 30 mins
