iPhone 5 c water damage

My son of 5 c stopped working all of a sudden he had in his backpack during a football match and it rained on.  The front of the phone was damp but not soggy.  In any case, it does.  We tried to put in a Bheestie bag 3 days to dry and has also replaced the battery.  Now it seems turn on but the screen would not light up.   Any ideas/suggestions?

Take it to an Apple Store or Service Center authorized Apple for an assessment and advice how to proceed.

  • IPhone 6 s water damaged more

    I recently damaged my iPhone more 6s due to water damage and I just got my replacement phone - another iPhone 6 s more.  However, I have to return my iPhone damaged by water, but it ends destroyed, it does not, etc. Instructions ask that I erase all the contents of my previous phone before returning, but how do I do that if I can't turn it on. I did remove my old SIM card and put it in my new iPhone 6 s more, is that enough?  I already located towards the top/restored my iPhone more than 6 s and I removed my old iPhone 6s than "find my iPhone". Disconnected from 'Find my iPhone' there is a selection that says once the phone is connected to the internet it would erase content and I chose, in the hope that it would remove any remaining info I have on the phone after removing the SIM card, if the phone is never repaired and returned to new. Thank you for your help.

    As long as you remove the device to locate my iPhone, you did what is necessary.  If Apple has problems, they will contact you.

  • IPhone 6 s water damage, the phone turns on, is the battery just fried?

    My phone got wet almost a hot tub... was not at all.  Tekdry working on it, so its dry and did not work during a day.  Now its finally works when it is plugged in, but used to hold a charge and seems to be stuck in recovery mode.  IM more than sure that it must just be the battery.  In any case, she takes in the Genius bar, unfriendly guy told me they would not replace battery water damage indicators show?  Why wouldn't they just allow me to pay for a replacement of the battery?  I know it may or may not work and of course my phone is out of warranty damage, if Im not looking to blame future maybe problems on Apple.  Just shocked I couldn't give them $90 to a new phone?  Is this a common practice?  They said that they would only replace whole phone for $299... Please help or give advice, thank you!

    Yes, it's standard. Your only option with Apple will be to pay for a full out-of-warranty replacement device.  The costs for this in the USA are $ 299 for which you get a refurbished device to factory OEM with a 90 day warranty.

  • IPhone 6 s life after water damage

    So my iPhone 6s fell in the tub (I still feel stupid) and after doing all the steps and put it in the rice that I tried to open it a thirty hours after I put it in rice. The phone open, fortunately, but I noticed that it took a little longer to power and power off. He also had a bright diagonal stripe on the screen which I guess was the water so I put back it in the rice therapy. Anyway, my main question is, is the power on and put off the power of the issue or the problem of screen I mentioned something I have to worry?

    You should worry about corrosion. Unfortunately, the iPhone is not waterproof. You're lucky if it still works after contact with water. Usually, phones and water do not mix, and water damage are not covered by the warranty. Corrosion has already begun.  You must schedule an appointment of genius at the Apple Store

    to assess the level of damages. They will offer you the best solution.

  • water damaged iphone memory are accessible by others?

    So I found a place that is ready to buy my water damaged iphone 5s, problem is that they want remove me device from my icloud account and I'm not sure and didn't quite stupidly asking why they need me to do, so I am wondering here if they are able to access my memory of the iphone. I tried to connect my phone to my PC, which says that the device is discoverable but not readable, but when I used 'Wondershare Dr.Fone' it allowed me to get my data through Itunes backup file recovery. Which brings me to my assumption that if this software can access memory from my broken iphone, it means that other people can also? If so, how can I completely wipe my phone memory?

    Sea water is corrosive. It is doubtful that the phone still works.  If you are concerned about this topic, then do not sell.

  • How to fix an iPhone 6 water damaged?

    My iPhone 6 recently fell into the toilet clear-watered and I automatically took and cut the power, I then took down to the it Department in my college and had a technician shake all the water and remove my hard case to dry everywhere for me, but also to remove the SIM card. From there, I kept it out and about two hours later, obtained a bag of white rice to the kitchen of the College to put my i6, before putting it in my friend tried to turn it on and managed also, only the apple symbol pops up on the screen and it wouldn't really lights up, it is the latest sign that I saw him working. I went to repair an electronics store downtown, but the guy gave me a call recently and said all hope is lost for her. I am extremely disappointed by Apple at this time and I refuse to think that my iPhone 6 is burned because I saw many people fix on YouTube by soaked in alcohol, or something! I'm not sure what the seller of electronics, but I feel like I'm sure he didn't do much to revive. Please tell me that all hope is not lost, and how do I manage to fix it. I've been a very loyal customer to Apple and always highly recommend it to other people, but if my iPhone 6 is simply grilled on a 1 second fall-in with the toilet, I'll be sure to cut my short loyalty and express my very negative experience with others. The iPhone 6 is very expensive and should not have such abilities of poor water/water waterproof resistance of the water.

    Blame you Apple to drop your phone in the water? Are you serious?

    Even if the phone is quite expensive, it IS NOT impermeable to water, is not allowed to survive water damage. This is clearly stated everywhere where it is possible.

    If you need a phone that is sustainable water, you should look for one of the specific models that have these capabilities and which are certified and tested to be waterproof to the water.

    You can only hope for the best and maybe leave a feature request for Apple at the link.

  • Indicator 6 water damage iPhone blushed

    my iPhone 6a is accidentally fell in the toilet yesterday and my pocket. I had placed my phone in a sealed plastic bag with rice and Silicon gel. However, I also discovered that the water damage indicator has become red/pink. What should I do? Should I still wait to load my phone a few days later?

    Betty,

    as far as I know that the water damage indicator will stay red in the future. It does not show that your phone is still wet, but the phone was in contact with the water.

    If you have kept your iPhone in the bag plastic with rice and Silicon gel for a few days, you can try if it works always. But perhaps the water already destroyed.

    If this does not at all or behaving strangely, you must go to an Apple Store.

  • How to back up data from the iphone water damage over 6 sec.

    I dropped my iphone more than 6 s in sea water, and it seems capable of lighting (which shows a black screen). I'm trying to back up data. When I connect the iphone with the computer, the following prompt box appears on itunes. Now I'm confused. Could someone answer my questions please?

    1. This means that my iphone is still able to turn it on?

    2. that means that only the screen is broken and the motherboard still work?

    3. How can I save the data without entering the password by using the touch screen?

    Thank you very much.

    This means you should STOP PUTTING ELECTRICITY through your phone untreated, ack!

    Your phone has a display problem, but yes - it lights up.
    Perhaps your problem is just a bad screen (which is unfortunately a part of $250 to a 6 sec more now).  Apple cannot help you with other water damage that offers to sell you an iPhone refurbished for $349.

    But most likely, your problem is also on the logic board - usually fixable.

    There is no way around the need for touch operation and the image on the phone to access the data.

    In order to access the data on the phone, you need your advice to hold the power and start, (it does) you need of your screen image lines, and you need to contact work.  Ideally, you would also have your backlight lines works as well.

    Most of the phones in this condition have a pretty good shot in data recovery in this situation - touch, and line of the image problems are usually solvable if your phone can be detected by iTunes.   It is certainly not DIY work, this is a troubleshooting open-ended the microsoldering and level of card issues.

    Your only option for recovering data would be to find a good microsolderer experienced in data recovery.

    I recommend to replace any phone which has seen water, corrosion on the Board always weakens solder everywhere, so the phone is likely to have a shorter duration of life more problematic.

    Note: It may be possible to cancel your option for the swap of OOW $349 at Apple if you continue recovering data at the level of Council - although I've never seen this happen.
