Display Dead...iTunes recognizes the phone... Yet... Can't Restore..

on ModMyI, i have read about nasty trick, how to get a water dammaged phone (which is always rejected by Apple) replaced by the same Applestore, which have rejected it before.

there are some sort of moisture sensors, which change the colour from white to red, if they get in touch with water.

guy promoting this trick wrote down, he have succeeded two times.

all he does is using a little bit of bleach, to whiten the sensors.

simple, inexpensive solution. and after that, sensors are white and those "geeks" at Apple, cannot find out any other solution, but to swapp it for the working one.

i guess, if you have it opened already, you can give it a try. it cost you nothing and you can get yourself a new phone instead.

i would say, if it was dropped into toilette (horrible idea, did you wash your hands afterwards :D ), water probably got quite deep inside. both sensors inside dock connector are red now, same with the one in the headphone jack. and if you look inside, you should be able to find more. bleach them all. Just dont use too much. one ear clearing bud should be enough.,..

and let us know, if it worked...
