What would I need to replace in my iPhone for water damage?
Don't say the whole phone cause I want to try and sort it out my self I know it's braking iPhone terms and conditions and they no longer have anything to do with it I was just wondering what I would need for one? As I know they don't sort water damage they just give you a new phone so what do I need to replace?
Circuit board it will have shorted out from the water
They would exchange the phone for a reconditioned one for a price. You need to find out the components that have suffered damage then replace them. However it could be very expensive if the main board. Also stripping down an iPhone is a royal PITA.
Its quite likely that the thing is scrap. Its also quite likely that if you have to ask then you are not going to be able to fix - these things are not an amateur repair job.
- Would replacing the battery on the iphone 5 fix water damage? I want to buy a water damaged iphone 5 from someone. He said it was quickly token out but was completely submerged. He said all he tried was a can of air but that's it. Should I take the risk and replace the battery? Would that work? What else could I try? He's selling it for 200

- My iPhone 4 suffered heavy water damage, will it be okay? I went in the pool with it not realizing it was in my pocket. I was in the pool for about 5-10 minutes before I realized it was in my pocket. It was on when I went in the pool but was off when I got out. I now have it sitting in a bowl of rice and I plan on leaving it in there for a week, changing the rice it's in every 24 hours. Does anyone have any insight on this, like if there's any hope of it being okay or is it done for?
