    Way too late. If you get your phone wet the first thing you need to do is turn it off and then dry it out. Open the case and remove the batteries, pop the cover off if you can and let it air dry or use a blow dryer on a low slow setting to drive out the moisture. Give it at least 24 hours before you try to use it again. It may or may not work especially on newer phones but beats the cost of a new phone if it does and you are only out the time it took to try it if it doesn't.
