Still water damaged 1 hr usually doesnt do it for moisture in electronics and turning it on caused more problems need to have diagnosed for repair
SOURCE: sidekick 3 dropped in a cup of water. Water got into screen.
Is the screen blank all the time?
If you look really hard can you see the items on the screen but they are really dark? If so the back light for the lcd may have burned out.
Take a look at the following site for instructions on disassembly.

If you feel comfortable with it, you can easily replace your own.
A new lcd runs about 50 dollars shipped. If you buy it from ebay, they
will usually come with instructions and the screwdriver you need. A T6
torx driver is the type needed.

Good job on drying it out and pulling the battery. Thats the best thing you can do when you get it wet!

You took all the right steps, including the rice. Unfortunately, even the rice method doesn't always catch the moisture before it does it's damage. The next step is to take the phone back to the store where you purchased it and have them see if it is salvageable. The other thing to check is where you stand with your contract. You may be able to replace the phone by extending your contract. good luck.

if you have electronic cleaner clean the phone or you can rinse it in water wait a day for it to dry and it might work

Well it depends on the type of screen you have in the phone. Some have edges that can split open and lose the fluid that projects the picture so your best bet is to just replace the phones screen, if every thing else works fine

the phone needs service, when it got wet it damaged the mother board of the phone.
