I stated in an earlier post I have a 5c that got wet dried it and it worked for a day screen went black no resets work. It's recognized by itunes, those restores don't work , changed screens still nothing. Took phone completely apart and cleaned everything put back together still nothing. I'm not new to fixing apple devices been doing it for a year but this screen thing has got me stumped please help before I pull all my hair out and start drinking more
 
Something Broke BAD

My best guess is that something inside the phone got wet when some water shifted and isn't repairable. IMHO you should probably be looking into a new iPhone.
 
I agree with the other poster, I would write the phone off as a lose honestly. I wouldn't spend the money trying to swap out parts and such unless you have them lying around.
 
Liquid damage doesn't always kill things immediately. The phone is probably dead, time to move on.
