I am attempting to rescue my LG cell phone which spent about 15 minutes
in about six feet of water in a fresh water lake. I took it apart, dried
everything out, and everything now works except the battery discharges
much more rapidly even when the cell phone is OFF. This is not the same
battery that was in the lake. Could it be the circuit board itself that
is still wet, and if so, will it ever dry out?


There is a conductive residue. A thorough washing with de-ionized water
is usually required. ^
