Phone got immersed in water, please help!?

I go to a University where electronics get stolen often, so every time I'm in the library I have to bring my cell and laptop (pain). Yesterday my phone fell in the toilet as soon as I entered the stall (I don't even know how that happened), but I dried every part of the phone I could off right away. Then I turned it on and noticed that some functions weren't working so I turned it off for a few hours and wrapped it in a towel. Then I turned it on again and more features were working, but some keys were displaying a different feature than they indicated so I quickly turned the phone off and put it in rice. I am leaving it there for 48 hours. I know this method works, but do you think because I turned the phone off and on so many times there is a chance it may not work? :( Thanks!

    I dont think turning it off and on would hurt it. I dropped my phone in my cup of coffee once and it took about 4 days but it eventually started to work correctly. Also my friends phone got placed in the dog water bowl by her son and it took hers about 3 to work correctly. It should dry out and work just fine. If it dont mabye its time for an upgrade!! :D
