celebrated too hard yesterday and dropped my iphone 3gs in a cooler. it boots without my simcard but just sits at apple logo with the sim. its jailbroken and unlocked. do i need to rejailbreak?

also the home key is broken, will it work later if it dries up? screen is cracked too so i should prob just toss it

you should have put it in a bag of rice when this 1st happend to help remove the moisture. Probably to late for that now. If you take it apple they will replace it for $199 with another 3GS. Up to you if it's worth it. You always sell it as is on ebay somebody will buy it even waterlogged.
 
Sounds like it's time for a shiny new iPhone. ;) Sucks about your phone though. =\

Are you due for an upgrade?
