Greetings all,
I was trying to film some of the snowfall here in the northeastern US and my iPhone 4S got a little wet in the snowfall, but I didn't think anything got into the phone itself. After having been nearly at a full charge, the battery went down to 1%, so I plugged it in. After a little bit of charging, it seemed to work fine again. I kept it in my pocket while plowing and shoveling. It got cold, but not wet. It seemed to turn itself off and won't turn on again. I tried charging it and it still wouldn't turn on. Just in case, I put it in a bag of silica gel packets overnight, then tried charging it again this morning. I then cleaned the charging port with 91% isopropyl alcohol, blew it out with canned air, then more charging and it still won't turn on.
Is it likely the battery, or is it more likely that the phone itself?
If the phone is bad, will it be possible to download the photos? Contacts and music are sync'd to my computer.
Thank you.
