Title:

Water-damaged iPhone 4 - Dock vs. Battery

Text:

I have a water-damaged iPhone4. I disassembled it and the logic board appears fine. When plugged into the wall, it boots to the password screen and asks for Activation. If unplugged, it immediately turns off. It doesn't connect to the computer

Questions:

1. Is it likely that it is the battery or the dock connector?

2. Why am I being asked to Activate again? Is my data gone?

3. If I need a new dock connector and/or battery, what are some trustworthy vendors?

Thanks!

Device:

iPhone 4
