GS5 cant detect Sim Card

I dropped it jn the water, i took it out of the water and remove the back cover. I noticed that the water indicator at the bottom turned red but not the other one near the sim. I dry it off, put everything back in and it cant detect my sim card and sd card. I take the sd card off and restart the phone then the phone can detect my sim card but when i put the sd card back in, the phone can't detect my sim card anymore but sd card. Sometime my phone can't detect my sim card, i have to restart the phone. Help me plz. My phone can only detect sim card when i dont insert my sd card in. If i insert my sd card in, the phone say that its cant detect the Sim until i take the sd card out and restart the phone.
 
You "dried it off", just how did you accomplish that?

You must either put the phone in a vacuum tank for a few hours, or you must put it in a big bag of white rice sealed up tight and let it set there for a day or so.

Just wiping water off the surface is useless.
