Sadly it seems my iPhone 4 (that went swimming with me over a month ago) has finally died. I had dried it out and resuscitated it… and later replaced the battery, the screen, and the dock connector to avoid annoying issues. The wifi hasn’t worked since the accident and the headphone jack died last week, but I still basically had a working iPhone 4 until just now. The screen is black now, though, and it’s unresponsive. It’s sad to see it go, especially after putting so much time (and money) into repairs – and especially after being proud of keeping it alive.
It’s plugged into a charger right now “just in case” but it looks like I’ll have to reactivate my old 3GS with AT&T – and consider when or if I’ll spend too much money on an early upgrade to a 4S.
The worst part? Nearly 100 photos from the past weekend (including a pumpkin patch trip with the boys) are now unretrievable. I wonder if the phone and I will get out of this one…
