htc one m8- dropped in water. HELP!

Yesterday I accidentally dropped my phone in water, luckily i quickly got it out before the whole phone was submerged in the water. I then tried to get as much water out as possible, I turned it off and and put it in rice for about 8 hours.

After 8 hours I tried turning it on and it worked fine although there was a lot of water in the screen, I then turned it back of and left it till this morning. I tried to turn my phone on but nothing happened, I then tried plugging it into the charger and the charging red light came on. My phone was on about 20% last night so I'm thinking its either died during the night or my phone is ****ed.

WHAT DO I DO?

Since you turned it back on with water still in the screen you probably fried the phone. You can try the rice trick for longer but I think you will need to replace the phone.

oh no :( even though most of the water was out of the phone and only in the screen?
