iPhone 4: How to open iPhone 4 with no traces? Possible?

Sat, 23 Jun 2012 08:59:33 -0700

Hi,

I am gonna repair an iPhone 4 for the first time.

what do I need to have, in order to make the closing smooth?

A glue?

I tried to fix iPhone 3Gs once in my life (I am new with these repairs), and after I reassembled it, there was a space between the Bazel and the Frame/back.

so I wonder if it could happen also with the iPhone 4?

Please advice,

thanks!

iPhone 4: iPhone 4 GSM Water Damaged, turns on when connected and Reboots

Thu, 06 Dec 2012 10:54:25 -0700

Hello everyone,

I have an iPhone 4 32 gb At&t.

I saw some corrosion around the logic board components, so I put it in Alcohol for 2 days and brushed it well.

I also put a new battery and Dock connector since the water sensor on it was red.

The phone itself does not power on by pressing power button, however, it turns on when connected to power outlet or pc and reboots consequently.

iTunes does not recognize it as well as Redsn0w.

Please help me to figure out this problem.

Update

Hello again,

Does anyone have any idea what should I do at this point.

I have replaced the broken coil and washed it with alcohol one more time and it still reboots and does not power on with Battery.

Your thoughts are appreciated.
