Earlier today my phone died for the first time since getting it. Once I finally got it on a charger the screen will not light up. It has the blue to indicate a notification and rings when I get a notification. However, the when pressing the power but or any button it doesn't light up. I have tried the soft reset but it hasn't worked. I did use the phone under water for a short period earlier in the day but it worked fine afterwards until the battery died later that day, which leads me to believe that isn't the issue. Not sure if it's a defective screen or what. Will take to store tomorrow.
 
Did you use a wireless charger or a wired one? If it was wired, the plug might have not been dried out all the way.

I assume that I somehow fried it when charging it? It has been wet before though so not completely sure why this time it is any different.

EDIT: Showed no signs of damage due to anything. Everything worked in store except the screen and touch screen didnt come on. Calls came in, notifications, and alarms and vibrations. They are sending a new one tomorrow.
