3GS power path - GSM-Forum

tinner105 · 08-29-2010, 04:18

I bought a 3gs 32gb that got wet. I took it apart took the cages off cleaned it with some alcohol 91% and a toothbrush.... my wifes

replaced the battery and i got nothing not even a beep when i plug into the computer.
I looked it over and nothing jumped out at me. So i thought i would ask here..... Thank You
And maybe i could get pointed in the right direction to look for trouble.
I have a good set of eyes to do it with. (see pics of my toy).

I have a couple 3gs boards that need connector repairs and I'm going to do them too.
I'm looking for a hot air solder rework station as we speak.
So as far as the 3gs power prob are there any pics of a good board i can use for comparison? you know look to see if somethings missing etc.

Thanks in advance to all who help and to those who try to help

Well heck i cant put up the pics too big.

dude! to properlly clean any water damage iphone or any phone you need an ultrasonic bath machine...................and most inportant the liquid that you will use to clean it.

alcohol and tooth brush doesnt cut it!

you can pick up ultrasonic cleaner very cheap from china

i agree on the ultrasonic cleaner. i did search regarding that and came accross an article about using the purest grade of alcohol, even moonshine, everclear to do the cleaning with.
so what is your sugestion for a cleaning agent?
and how about a heated ultrasonic cleaner better?

Thank You for your help
