Hey,
i went for a swim with my C6603, well it's dead now.

When i put it on charger, i can see the red light, i tried thad 30 hours and more of charging, left the battery die out for like half a month, I ca get those 3 red lights when i press power, if i pres power and volume up i get 2 blinks of red.

So i was thinking about taking out battery, its out now. I tried to connect it to the PC without battery, voila i am in flashmode (blue light on) or i can get to fastboot mode (red/green blinks) so i was like, maybe i can override something (dunno) i flashed STOCK ftf via flashtool, everything went well but same red light (with battery).

I was thinking is the battery dead? Should i buy new one and try it? Or is it beyond repairable point, what do you think guys?

And i also tried to cut the USB wire, plugged positive and negative to the connection of battery, and put it on charger if you now, i can somehow make the phone think, there is a new battery, nothing happened at all. After that i connected the battery, same red light...

Now i am out of ideas and the only one is, should i buy a new battery? Or throw it out of the window...

I am open to any suggestions :)

It's water damaged as you are saying. So maybe the screen not working or CPU or motherboard.

Battery won't help. If you didn't ordered one would be better....
