hi, my iPhone 6s went swimming, for a little while. Once out of the water it got hot and did not switched on any more. I replaced the batter, now it turns on, i see the apple logo while booting, but after few seconds it restarts. I have been able to put it into DFU mode, but the mac/iTunes does not recognize it. what can be damaged? logic board? is it worts trying to repairing? thanks ciao marco
Whatever you do, don’t put in rice…please. Open your phone and remove the logic board (follow this guide)Inspect the logic board, especially around the connectors and look for corrosion.Inspect both sides of the board. Unfortunately, 80% of the board is covered in shields. That’s usually where the damage is occurring.Put your board in a container with >90% isopropyl alcohol and let it sit for a while.Use a soft brush, like a toothbrush and lightly brush away any corrosion you see.Rinse in alcohol and repeat.Let it air dry for a day.Re-assemble and hope for the best. A professional repair shop that does water damage repair may be able to recover your phone or the data because they have access to pro-level ultrasonic baths and specialized cleaners as well as the skills to troubleshoot your board. I offer this service but you will have to mail it out.
