Try opening the flap of micro SIM Card and check if the water indicator(not Hard OFF/Reset button) has turned red.

If its red,maybe there's water leaked into it,sadly.

You need to either return your device to the place of purchase or contact Xperia care http://www.sonymobile.com/global-en/support/contact-us/

The water indicator is like a very small square-like white strip which turns red when in contact with water.In order to see it,you first need to remove the sim card tray.It is located within the sim card tray's place.

Hi, if all the other functions like scrolling on the screen, taking pictures etc are all working perfectly i would rule out water damage, so you may have damaged something when it was dropped as i presume it hit the bottom of the bath Crying_Face
