Did you also remove the shields that are covering some of the components, you didn’t say? The water may have got in under them and the corrosion that has started to occur there may be still continuing to damage them, more so with the power still connected to the systemboard. Also all flex cables will need to be disconnected and their ends and their associated systemboard cable connectors need to be cleaned as well
''The impurities in the water causes corrosion and provides circuit paths for the electricity which were not in the phone's operating design and could damage the components. The corrosion starts immediately and is ongoing until it has been properly cleaned away.''

''First '''do not try to turn on or charge your phone''' and then '''remove the battery as soon as possible''' from the phone'' to minimize any further damage.
Then you need to dis-assemble the rest of the phone and clean ''all the affected parts'' using '''Isopropyl Alcohol 99%+''' (available at electronics parts stores) to remove all traces of corrosion etc. Do not use "rubbing alcohol" as in some cases this is only 70% IPA or less, can contain additives and is not as effective. If you do check the label to verify the amount of IPA. The higher the percentage of IPA the better.
