IPhone 4 Water Damage NEED HELP URGENTLY.

I dropped my phone in the toliet yesterday (I know, I'm not that smart... >.>) and I pulled it out as quickly as I could and dried it off with a towel.  At first, it didn't work that well, but after an hour or so it started to work fine, so I assummed it was okay.  When I tried to charge it, it would charge for a second or two, and then it would tell me that it didn't work with the charger.  Eventually, it wouldn't do anything when I plugged it in.  I tried plugging it into several outlets and my laptop and nothing worked.  I turned it off for the night, and this morning when I turned it on it was still working fine but it wouldn't charge.  It died, and whenever I try to turn it on it gives me the regular image that it does when there's no battery.  I keep trying to plug it in.  I can't pay for it to be fixed, and I need it to be fixed quickly.  I can't do the thing with the bag of rice because I need it fixed by tomorrow night.  I need a simple, quick way to fix it that doesn't cost anything and that I can do by myself (this is kind of secretive - long story).  I also cannot remove my case.  Please help.

There's no way that you can fix the issue. The components that charge the phone in the 30 pin dock are most likely fried, so the phone needs to be replaced. You could try to have it fixed at a place that repairs iphones, but i can't think of anything that you can do yourself to fix it

  • Water damage, need help, or suggestions.

    Yeah, I was stupid enough not to check my jean pockets before throwing them in the washing machine. Now it's water damaged, and there's some water in the screen.
    Is there a way I can revive it? My friends have had the same kind of damage, and they said that they had left their ipod collecting dust for a month or two before it started working again. Does it need to dry? Can I pry it open and make it dry faster? Is there a way I can send it in to get it checked out or replaced?
    One more thing, I attpemted to pry it open, knowing that there are 3 metal pins on each side of the ipod instead of the dock end, is there a guide out there or video that can help me do this if I have to resort to this? I'm honestly trying to make this thing work, because I don't have enough money to buy another one. And I wont for a long while, considering that I'm turning 16 in a couple of weeks,and I'm looking for a job.

    I shouldn't start trying to open it up - they're not designed for that and you might have a lot of difficulty getting it together again.
    If you leave it for long enough in a warm-ish environment there is a fighting chance it will dry out and be OK. I should give it at least a week. I shouldn't take a hair-dryer to it

  • IPhone 4 water damage - please help!

    My iPhone 4S was dropped in a toilet with just toilet water for about a minute or less, it went completely black - I didn't have to turn it off. Now it is not turning on. It has been sitting in rice for about 8 hours. What do you think?

    I think you would have been better off not trying to turn on the phone again for at least a few more days.  It's most certainly fried now.  But don't beat yourself up, even with putting the phone in dry rice or a dessicant for days, the chance of the phone working again are still negligible.  Not zero, but I doubt even in the double digits.
    In any case, you can bring your phone, and $199 to Apple for an out of warranty replacement.

    Sorry, it appears you were scammed. The phone you have was replaced, either under warranty, or as an out of warranty replacement, & should have been returned to Apple. Unfortunately, some unscrupulous retailers will fix these phones, & then re-sell them. Your only option is to go back to whoever you purchased the phone from & confront them

  • I got my iphone 4 water damaged. It won't turn on. How do I go about getting it replaced and what are the costs?

    I got my iphone 4 water damaged. It will not turn on. I need to replace it ASAP. How should I do this? Costs?

    You should have put it in a bag of rice.  If you had, it probably would have turned out okay.

    2) I urgently need to setup my email accounts. But this time round, when i logged in, they required for my email id and password. And yes my email id is Removed personal information to comply withCommunity GuidelinesandTerms and Conditions of Use. all the while for the past 4 years. I am unable to log in. I tried all kinds of password but unable to log into my mobile settings

    Urgent and thanks

    Hi,
    I have been trying this technique for the past 4 days. It doesnt work no matter how i change the password at the link that u gave me. Even though it's being reset accordingly, i am still unable to log in the password at my mobile. i am 100% sure that i have entered the correct password at my mobile. ( verify blackberry id) . I want to setup new email accounts under "setup" . Upon me clicking " email accounts", it prompt for the one key password. I have never faced this issue before. I am very very sure that my password is correct. Pls advise as i need to add email accounts. Other programs are working fine without any password required being prompt. ie. blackberry world
    This is very very urgent to be resolved. Pls help.

  • Need help urgently with OS X and Windows 7

    I need help urgently.
    I installed Windows 7 on my macbook pro with OS X Lion. After installing Windows7, I accidently converted the basic volumes to dynamic volumes and now i can't even boot to OS X.
    Please help me how to recover my OS X Lion. If I have to delete Windows and bootcamp partitions, it is OK.
    I just want to get back my OS X bootable.
    Thanks

    Sorry
    I can't even see the OS X partition when I hold down the "Option" key.
    I could see OS X and Windows partitions if I hold down Option key before changing the partitions to Dynamic partitions from Basic in Windows 7.
    Now can't see OS X partiton and only see Winodws partition but when I tried to boot onto Windows7 , I got BSOD and macbook pro restart.
    Please help
    The usual reason for the OSX partition to be invisible under these circumstances is that it has been trashed by Windows.
    Do you have a backup?

    Don't know what you mean by "some time ago", but unless you activated Find My Phone and the phone is still on, the answer is no. (Even if you ask 3 times).

    Try asking at ifixit.com. The iPhone is not considered user servicable. You're not going to get much help on an Apple sponsored forum.

  • BB Curve 8900 need help urgently!!!!!

    hey my blackberry 8900 rebooted but now it says "Reload Software:552" and no matter what buttons I press it just won't work, please tel me what to do I really need help urgently!!
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Before you do anything else:  Do a simple reboot on the BlackBerry in this manner: With the BlackBerry device POWERED ON, remove the battery for a minute, and then reinsert the battery to reboot. A reboot in this manner is prescribed for most glitches and operating system errors, and you will lose no data on the device doing this.
    Please let us know if that reboots the device properly or not.

    If is a fillable form, just tab to the next field. What we do not understand from you is IF it is a fillable form or not. If it is not, then the 3 options I gave can be used. Placing text is always a problem. You might find it useful to turn on the grid to help in placing your typewriter fields. However, if it is fillable you do not have to create any fields to type in, you just leave the tool as the hand tool and select the predefined fields with the cursor or the tab key and type accordingly. If the field is a checkbox, then you just use the space key to activate it.
    So, are we talking about a fillable form or something that has the appearance of a form, but not fields to fill in. This is what Bernd has been try to find out and you keep suggesting it is fillable as we read what you have said.
