v635 end/power button problem

hey, any help here would be appreciated. Ends up a buddy of mine knocked my v635 into a cup that had about an inch or so of rye and coke in it (happy new year....) and was in there for about a second or so.

So luckily it works pretty much ok except for two things. Instead of having to press and hold the end button to turn on or off the phone, if you just press it once without holding, it will turn on/off the phone. Also, when trying to charge it, it says unable to charge.

I tried the drying in the oven for an hour at around 125 F, and its been sittin over heating vents for like half a day now on top of that, so i'm figuring its dry now, so now i just have no idea as to what my next step would be to fix this.

Any suggestions would be great, even if its sayin there's nothin else i can do except to bring it in to see if it can get fixed somewhere. thanks

Usually, people leave their phone to dry for a day (24 hours) or more. Remove the front and back faceplates and open the flip to improve the drying.

yeah, it had been drying open with the faceplates off for a day, then put in the oven and then left drying on the vent for the next half day. thanks for the suggestion though.

another fun symptom that has appeared is that it will randomly turn on/off every once and a while (happened twice so far) on its own. Will also turn on right as you put the battery back in.

....again, any other suggestions/info for gettin it fixed would be great if anyone has any, thanks....
