iPhone 4 screen flash's and phone restarts after 3minutes 6seconds
I recently bought a 2nd hand iPhone with a cracked screen only to find out had allready been opened up water damaged and missing the speaker at the bottom and the vibrator and all component covers ( i think thats all thats missing (see picture) )
I fixed the screen myself then put everything back together but acidently broke off battery connector on motherboard an when I try'd to restore with iTunes had 1611 error then soldered battery back on and it restored succesfully
Now when I turn it on it will always restart after around 3 minutes 6 seconds (went into stopwatch always around 3.03.7 so allowing for time to get into it)
And also when sim is in it will show 1 bar for a second but no network name then no service.(sim is fine works in my other iPhone 4) and don't think it's an overseas iPhone.
tryed restoring it a few times and even tryd jailbreaking it thinking it might help but no luck
Any help greatly appreciated thanks
IPhone 4 16gb
Ios4.3.5 not jailbroken
Modem firmware 4.10.01
No corrosion that I can see but sticker on motherboard is pink
Is this a good question?

My initial guess would be that the logic board is shot but I'm not 100% confident. Combination of relatively normal operation until reset, the fact that someone has already been through the phone and a tripped water sensor make me lean towards my guess.

where can i get a new logic board from?
also wouldi be able to put a 32gb one in instead of the 16gb which is in there at the moment?
are they both compatible with everything else in the phone?

Sorry I dropped the ball on this one.
We unfortunately do not sell the logic board and I haven't heard of any reliable sources for logic boards...and the prices that I have seen on sites are REALLY high. You're best bet may be to find another second hand phone w/a good board, if you can verify, and try swapping? Hope something works out for you!
