This is the record for a toilet immersed iPhone for me.
Tim Battin is a cool guy that lives here in Santa Rosa California (95403). Like so many people he is now porking two jobs without complaint. That is just the way our new global economy works. He works at a car detail firm in the Coddingtown area and then over at Cattleman's restaurant as a server, which he has been doing for three years.
Over the weekend his POS substitute phone he lost somewhere, now he wanted to get his iPhone working again. Six months earlier he dropped his iPhone 3g in his toilet. I know, I'm always tempted to ask those questions too. "was it a clean or dirty toilet?" "What were you thinking, using your phone in the bathroom when the downside is so big and the upside is so small?"
I've found those quetions to be curiousities but not productive to the project. He also had a broken upper glass/digitizer.
He left it off with my $60 labor fee and I worked my way through it over night. By the next morning i had the whole thing working again and all the files that were on it at toilet time were back there again. I had to replace the battery and the upper glass/digitizer.
The reason it shows "no service" is... I didn't have an active SIM for the phone until he got a new one for the one he lost over the weekend.
Total cost to get the iPhone that he dropped in the toilet 6 months earlier working perfectly, and looking perfect again was $110
Yes, he did feel kind of silly for not having brought it to me at least five months earlier.
Fixed - Total cost $75.
