shushyjukal 41 Posted April 30, 2011 Report Share Posted April 30, 2011 Yesterday my iPhone got a bottle of water poured over it in the van and it was pretty much fked. Wouldn't come on at all. I saw on the net that if you turn it off straight away, put it in a bag of rice for a few days and then try it again it will work. I did this overnight and left it on a radiator and hey presto it worked. I switched it on and did a recovery update on iTunes and there you go, back online! The amazing iPhone, a true piece of genius. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
FightTheBan 1,147 Posted April 30, 2011 Report Share Posted April 30, 2011 I dropped my blackberry in a tub of ronseal (other brands of fence paint are available)a couple of months ago. Ran it under the sink, put it on the radiator and it works like new! FTB Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Just like a Golf Hahah nicely put! You can try and beat the iPhone with other models but unfortunately, it's untouchable. Apple have got it nailed. Your either a lover or a hater but either way you've got to admit they are the bollix. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
