Iphone 4 may be damaged and can't be activated for service?
My sister dropped her iphone 4 in the bath but took it out quickly and dried it out. It turns on and goes through the first bit of setup then says i need to connect it to itunes. When i do i get this message:
There's a problem with your iPhone.
The iPhone you connected may be damaged and can't be activated for service. We recommend you visit your nearest Apple Store for more information.
is there anyway to fix this without going to apple? Because it's no longer on contract i doubt they will replace it or fix it for free
Added (1). I meant her insurance doesn't cover it anymore, she got a new phone already she jt want this one fixed so her boyfriend can have it. It's been completely dried out already it's been over a month since she dropped it.
Added (2). Also I already mentioned it turns on and says connect to iTunes where I get the message that I need to take it to te apple shop, I was asking if there's and alternative to taking it there
Well you caused water damage, of course they won't fix it for free because its complete negligence on your part. Let it completely dry out for days and then hope that you didn't ruin it. If you are not on contract then I would just get a new 2 year contract as you can get a new iphone 4 free as a replacement.
- Where can I go to watch devil may cry episodes online free on my iPhone? Everywhere I go online it says that I need adobe flash. But the iPhone does not use and can't use adobe flash because it uses silverlight. Or it says that I have to pay some type of fee
- This cable or accessory is not certified and may not work reliably with this iPhone? I have a life proof case and I took it under water. I noticed some water inside the case so I took it off and saw that there was water on the outside of the phone. Ever since then a note pops up every 15-30 seconds saying "This cable or accessory is not certified and may not work reliably with this phone". What should I do? Is there a way to fix it? My phone is virtually unusable since this annoying message keeps popping up. Any help would be appreciated.
- This cable is not recommended for this iPhone and may not be reliable? I recently bought a new but un-Apple-certified lightning cord for my iPhone 5c, but this error message has started popping up after about using it about 5 times. Now, my phone is completely dead, and I have no money to buy a new cable, no cable that will charge my phone, and a dead phone. I'm completely desperate for help here, since, like a cliche white girl, my phone is my life.
- This cable is not certified and may not work reliably with this iphone? I have had this message before, but my phone was plugged in. This time I was at a concert wearing a bag that was loose on my body and my phone was in it. It could be easily taken out without me noticing. I took it out and the message appeared. Is it possible that someone plugged something in to my phone and put a virus or something on it? Or am I just being paranoid?
