Good luck, if it looks like its been opened.....they wont warranty it.

**smirkis** · 01-03-2009, 10:10 AM

and if someone already brought it to apple, with water damage, they might have blacklisted it in their system by the serial number. be careful. maybe check on apple.com for warrenty status

**cpjr** · 01-03-2009, 10:27 AM

^Very true...because they will do that.

**NickCocchiarella** · 01-09-2009, 04:31 AM

the warrenty isn't activated aparently...

**NickCocchiarella** · 02-13-2009, 03:02 AM

so, i got it to turn on.. nothing on the screen though.. don't know what to do now.

- changed the headphone jack so apple don't know it's been water damanged..

the iphone functions! the headphone jack makes the screen light up etc
