[QUOTE="headhog70, post: 1843199, member: 42960"] Sorry I am replying so late, but I could not log in. I would be very hesitant to take any out of warranty device to an Apple store. Apple does not want to repair devices at the component level. They will give outrageous quotes to repair devices that only need a connector pin fixed. They want to sell you a new device. Apple has been notorious concerning water-damaged iPhones. They deny data can be recovered from any water damage. I just checked the Apple forum and they still are saying “There is no way to recover any data unless you have a backup, the data is GONE.” The company ipadrehab has a 95 percent success rate at recovering data. Last time I checked it cost $300, but only if they are successful. Here is a link to a Canadian Broadcasting Corporation investigation of Apple company’s response to iPhone customers. [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K98JYRBGyrg]YouTube[/url] Companies that can do micro soldering are able to repair Apple devices at the component level. I am familiar with two. The aforementioned ipadrehab and Louis Rossmann. [/QUOTE]
