I know this is a pc forum but I'm asking everywhere for now

I went to the aquarium and was taking pictures of an open tank and dropped my phone in and quickly took it out.

I thought nothing of it untill about an hour later when it suddenly became to hot to touch and went black.

When I got home i removed the sim tray and put in in rice and after 2 days I took it out and it doesn't charge it just stays at the battery logo.

I ordered a wireless charger and the same thing happens. I am on holiday in usa and my warranty is in the UK so I can't claim it.

What should I do?

Honestly, the fact that you left it on and waited for something bad to happen rather than turning it off *immediately* suggests to me your phone is toast. If the damage was already done, you were way too late for drying it in rice to do anything. You can try another battery, but I'm not optimistic.
