doesnt work anymore, cant charge, cant boot up,

my iphone 4S doesnt boot up, doesnt charge, does nothing anymore, i already did al the things like pushing the home and power button for lik 20 sec. nothing happens, but what i do see is a fully rounded cirlce in the audio jack,... so i think that if the water sensor is activated, it disconnect the circuit or blocks the circuit for no further damage on the phone? do i have to put a new audio jack ? or what?

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

yoenes pattyn, the indicator does not block or disconnect your phone. It just visually indicates that your phone has been exposed to some for of liquid. Since your phone does not turn on at all, I would suggest that you disassemble it. Use this guide and clean every part of your phone with 90%+isopropyl alcohol. Use this guide to show you how to clean it. It was written for a 3G but still pertains to your phone as well. Once it is properly cleaned, replace the battery by using this guide. After that reassemble your phone and re-evaluate. Hope this helps, good luck.

hey old turkey,

i did not work for it, i let the logic board for 5 min. in the isopropyl and scrubbed but when i connected everything, still not working, should it be on the screen itself?

Not sure where the downvote comes from. Downvotes should be reserved for blatantly wrong or malicious answers, not because they do not work for some people. did you change the battery?

yoenes gave you the down vote, probably just hit the wrong arrow. I'm preety sure no one would down vote you for trying your best to help them ;-)
