Iphone 5 battery is stuck after water danage?
My brothers iphone 5 got dropped in a pool (not surprisingly) after warning him he should NEVER run around with an iphone near a pool. My dad is trying tonfix the iphone 5 by replacing the batterynsince all the other parts seem in decent condition. The phone is only about a month old. We couldnt get the repair kit until about a week after the phone got water logged so my dad kept the phone in a bag full of rice. When we finally got the kit, my dad was able to take apart the phone easily but when it came to the battery, it wouldnt budge. There was a tag where you should pull out the battery but my dad didn't want to pull on it so hard so that the phone might accidentally break (the phone is so fragile). I thought maybe the phone in a sense "melted" and is stuck to the phone but its most likely not the case. Everytime we pull on the tag though the battery seems to loosen up a bit but not much. Does anyone have any advice on how to remove a stuck battery without extreme force? And also on another note, we did bring the phone to the apple store to see if they could help but they said we would need to pay a bunch of money and my dad is not willing to pay that much money so thats why he is repairing the kit. Again if anyone has any ideas or suggestions please answer.
That phone is as good as a paperweight. Daddy-o is not Apple trained, and those "kits" are a waste of money.
Next time brother should get a Lifeproof case for his phone, and perhaps insurance.
- Water is stuck under my iPhone 5S Screen? I went swimming yesterday and I used a waterproof case. After I was done with my swim, I removed the case just to see if it actually worked in protecting my phone: it didn't. There were water droplets around the edges of my phone. And there was also some water stuck beneath my screen which looked weird when I was using my phone. I've switched it off and on once since then. The water just seems to be spreading more with time. What should I do?
- Stuck iPhone 4 lock button! Stuck/Stripped screws Okay so, I've had this stupid panda case on my phone and it jammed my lock button. It still works if you push super hard from the side, but no clicking sound. I saw how to fix it by opening my phone up but the screws won't come out no matter what! I tried a screwdriver alone, with duct tape, rubber band, double sided tape, everything! I don't have a warranty on my phone, and I'm looking for a super inexpensive (>$5) way to fix it, any ideas?
- My iPhone 3G is stuck on the dock reset screen/loading circle stuck? For some reason my iPhone 3G is stuck on the dock home screen, like this: and it has that tiny loading logo, like this: that is stuck in the middle. I can't reset because my power button no longer works so I only use the home button to turn it on and since it is jailbroken i slide the top bar, press power, the lock, so i have no use of my power button. The loading circle is still spinning and its been doing this for about an hour >:( Help?
